I was reading about this and if something this simple could have helped with this vetigo and balance problems all along I think I would be so angry. I have had to deal with this for about 8 years, a possible damage caused by an antibiotic,
I do not know yet if that's what happened, but I am gonna make an appt with an ENT doctor now that we have insurance and find out. This has caused me so much greif over the years, I have basically became agoraphobic, I do also have panic disorder
of course. It has affected my driving at times and even just riding in a vehicle, because I see everything off balance or moving and God on the 4 lanes, it is awful. I am so glad I found this support group, if nothing else I got alot of questions to ask the ENT Doctor.

" Ya know I don't know if it will help or not but I sure will ask the doctor about it, even if it takes more then once, that's fine with me. I have dealt with this for so long and if you have this dizziness and balance problem it has been horrible as you know. Do you know if it is something a insurance covers? "
