Dizziness & Vertigo Support Group

Hi Gwen,

What the TCM doc told you may be correct. I often suffer from stomach upset and nausea as well. Like you, I have been suffering from dizziness and anxiety for 16 yrs. I see a TCM doctor frequently, and almost after every menstrual cycle, I seem to have damp heat in my body, with badly coated tongue. Go easy on sugar.

Hi there, it seems really strange someone else being dizzy with anxiety for as long as me. There is not one person I know of personally, friend, family, friend of family who can relate to it and I know they all (including old hubby) who just do not understand. The tummy problem and nausea is not pleasant, I think I will be going down TCM route, my doctor has absolutely no knowledge of any of it. I have read on what to eat to correct the dampness and reduce heat in the gut, so I think it prudent to see a TCM in person and also take any herbal remedy he prescribes - do you take anything from him/her - I have a book on Chinese herbal cures and the herbs sound really scary. Let me know.

Thanks for your replies everyone, and DIzzybabe too! Well, my tummy seems inflammed and swollen and gassy. no diahrea or constipation though. and it hurts, burning and achy. This is seriously the last thing I need for real!!!

Hi Gwen,

In my country, TCM practitioners are very common. They will prescribe herbs based on your condition (through observation, tongue check, pulse taking etc), mixed and packed into satchets for easy consumption. I do not know what herbs go into the satchets. Hence, itis important to find a TCM who you are comfortable with and can trust. I have been seeing mine for more than 5 years.

I think my condition is worse (if not the same) than you. I have alot of ailments, but I don't know how many of which are peri meno related. Dizziness and stomach upsets are just 2 of them. Yesterday,I went for a bio-resonance test (not sure anyone heard about this) and discovered that I have cancer cells (cellular level). Also found alot of allergents which I have been consuming my whole life eg. chicken, duck, egg, milk etc. These could have trigger all the stomach ailments and even dizziness. Fortunately, I was told that the cancer cells can be cleared through treatment, and the allergents too. So I will follow-up with treatments. Live one day at a time. You take care.

Hi there, just picked this up. I have often wondered if my dizzies were allergy related, docs not interested. And now this yukky sickly, bitter constant feeling I feel may tie in. I think I really need to find a TCM, like you, in person I can trust. Had examination by specialist last week for a good ole feel around and could feel nothing. He will do the old camera job to have a closer look.

Keep me posted, I can so relate to you.
