Default Need suggestion about my problem

Im 27 yrs old. I had my son 7yrs ago. I had him natural with an epidural. The epidural wore off and I really should have had a c-section because he didnt fit and I was literally delirious from pushing. The following week after having him I had a terrible headache. The drs gave me 800mg ibuprofen to help. It didnt really help. I know I wasnt supposed to take asprin after having a baby but I did anyways. It took me taking an excedrin to make my headache go away. Well I guess it took about 2yrs before I really noticed something about myself.
I started noticing I had lower back pain. Then I started getting that with pain at the base of my head. Then came the dizziness with it. At first I just shrugged it off as lightheadedness when I would get up or something Id get dizzy. The longer I go the worse its getting. Its been 5yrs since I noticed this and now its gotten to be almost a daily problem with me. The dizziness comes with pressure behind my eyes(sometimes so bad it feels my eyes will pop out), I can hear my heartbeat in my ears and sometimes slight hearing loss, extreme diziness. I have had moments where my vision would go balck. A few weeks ago I went about 5 minute with halos in my vision. I have stood up to walk to the kitchen and have to hurry to the counter to hold myself up because I feel faint or like my legs are about to give out. I have metioned a bit to the dr but it for one wasnt my normal dr because mine was out and he just mentioned it might be vertigo. I dont think thats what it is and I want an idea of something that would cause this. Its not a constant thing but witht he back/neck pain is always something else with it. None of the others things happen unless i have the back/neck pain. Sometimes I can take a few ibuprofen before the back/neck pain gets too bad and stop it before it starts then there are days that I wake up like this.
I was just wondering if theres anyone else with these problems.
Thanks.
