Close Dizziness & Vertigo

First vertigo attack at 12 years old, around same time as panic attacks appeared, unsurprisingly. First migraine at 16. Had vertigo misdiagnosed as panic attacks for over 15 years. Vertigo had dissipated to occasional attacks in my 30s...but has reappeared with regularity and a vengence over the past few months since flu. Seems the vertigo is triggered by viruses(labrynthitus) but as I am a complicated migraine sufferer with basilar migraines, the vertigo is also connected to migraines.

Treatments

Compazine Working / Worked

I take 1/2 tablets as otherwise I find they make me like a zombie. They make my body, and mind rest and sleep when I am unable to lay down or move a lot. They do help me a lot, but they do not wipe out vertigo, just help a lot with the symptoms. They are my security blanket to help me cope with the most extreme days of vertigo only.
