Is this large vessel vasculitis?

Patient's question:

These past few days, for some unknown reason, I've been experiencing frequent dizziness and headaches, and my memory has been continuously worsening. My vision is also very poor. After researching, my symptoms seem to resemble giant cell arteritis, but I'm not sure. I'd like to consult a doctor about my recurring condition. Is this giant cell arteritis?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, carefully observe how mental tension or accompanied by poor rest can cause headaches. It is recommended to decide on nourishing foods to maintain your health and see if it helps, but it is advised to avoid overtime work. Pay attention to eating less extremely cold and irritating foods. At the same time, it is recommended to go to the hospital for further screening to check for conditions like atherosclerosis, and consider medication. However, there is no need to be tense about mental health.
