    • Close Dizziness & Vertigo

      I started having sporadic vertigo attacks 13 months ago. Lately, I've been having 1 to 5 episodes per day. Stress seems to set off the attacks. The current diagnosis is migraine associated vertigo. I've tried Antivert, vestibular exercises, and have had an MRI. Last week I was put on Inderal but had to go off of it because of bronchospasms. Now I've been on amitriptyline for 2 days and I'm hating the drowsy side-effects.

      Treatments

      Vestibular Exercises Not Working
      Inderal Not Working
      I felt very drugged and started having breathing problems. The bronchospasms cleared up as soon as I was off the med. The Inderal did help with the vertigo attacks however.

    • Close Migraine Headaches

      I've been battling migraine associated vertigo for the past 13 months. Stress is definitely a trigger for the migraine. I've just been put on amitriptyline (25 mg). I hate the drugged, sluggish feeling and am hoping I get used to it.

      Treatments

      Inderal Not Working
      It helped with the vertigo, but I had to go off of it because of breathing problems.
      Elavil Too Soon to Tell
      Im only on the 2nd day. No vertigo today but Im feeling very drugged sluggish and sleepy.
