      From Alexp523 January 24

      I know sometimes it's frustrating, but you have to stay positive and to tell yourself, you're going to figure everything out and we'll both get to the bottom of that we're going through and take care of it. Thank you for your support, it means a lot. And I hope all goes well now and in the future.

    • Close Dizziness & Vertigo

      diagnosed with Vertigo many years ago, and only suffered about three episodes. Two weeks ago it started again. It has been non stop, dizziness, imbalance and vomiting. I have had two good days out of the last two and a half weeks. Was taken to the ER because we thought I was having a stroke. Dr. in the ER perscribed Ativan, my own Dr. flushed them and told me to take Gravol. It helps a bit, but makes me sleepy. I have an appt. with an ENT in March, but the last two days have been awful.

      Treatments

      Betahistine Somewhat Helpful
      Was using this for years, but found it was changing my personality. Dr. took me off and found immediately that my moods changed for the better.
      Dramamine Somewhat Helpful
      Works to a point. But really want something done permanently. I don't want to suffer with this any longer.
