      I have been having problems for about 6 years ever since I had several blows to the head. I had tests locally in Greenville and then it got worse - went to Mayo in Rochester. They diagnosed me with Migrainal vertigo and visual vertio. I had several tests and I think process of elimination is how they came up the diagnosis. I am currently going to a vestibular therapist to help with the visual vertigo. This stuff has really changed my life - today I am particulary depressed. I hope you are doing better!

      Thank you for the advice on not taking Kudzu with Gingo. I have been taking them both for a week trying to get help with vertigo. I hope you are doing better. I don't know what MAV is? I just know that it is so difficult to have a normal life with vertigo. I am sure it is making us stronger people. Take care and I hope you have many happy days.

      I have positional vertigo and MAV too. Hang in there.

    • Close Dizziness & Vertigo

      Am 26 years old and have been suffering from BPPV / possible MAV for over three years now. Had my first vertigo attack as a child, then no major attacks until I rolled over in bed one morning a few years ago and had a major attack. Since then I go through periods of feeling off-balance, mild turning at points but generally don't have a spinning vertigo attack unless I am lying on my right side - until recently. Just the other day I had a spontaneous vertigo attack just while standing up.
