Close Dizziness & Vertigo
I rolled over in bed on October 1, 2007 and the world kept spinning, and I was scared to death. I didn't have insurance at the time, so I went to the emergency clinic. They told me I had labyrinthitis and sent me home with Antivert. Finally in June of 2008 I got insurance and went straight to an otolaryngologist. I also went to an audiology center for a hearing, balance and ENG tests. The Epley was performed on me at a PT vestibular center.
Treatments
- Antivert Not Working
- It doesn't "cure" anything, it just lessens the nausea and makes you tired.
- Epley Maneuver Somewhat Helpful
- Kept me vertigo-free for 6 months, but I am feeling dizzy again. :o( I hate that I have to wait for an appointment for a PT to do this, and I absolutely hate being made dizzy during the Epley -- I have SO MUCH ANXIETY tied to the vertigo!
Close Migraine Headaches
I get headaches frequently and several turn into migraines. I am at my wits' end.
Treatments
- Acupuncture Not Working
- had acupuncture treatment last Thursday and had a migraine that night.
- Caffeine Somewhat Helpful
- I have a sensitivity to caffeine, so it starts up other problems for me.
- Imitrex Somewhat Helpful
- took the pain away but it made me so sick to my stomach I could never take it again.
- Maxalt Working / Worked
- Seems to work, but takes time. I think it's because I wait too long to take it. Gives me dry mouth.
