Symptom #10: Dizziness

Patients with temporal arteritis may experience dizziness depending on the blood vessel that might be affected. If the inflammation affects the posterior vertebral arteries, this could compromise the blood flow to the brain resulting in dizziness and vertigo.

If the inflammation is severe enough, it can cause transient ischemic attacks (TIA) and even cerebrovascular accidents (CVA).
