Dizziness & Vertigo Support Group
Dizziness is the sensation of instability. Vertigo refers to dizziness with a sensation of motion. Vertigo is more likely than other types of dizziness to be associated with nausea, vomiting, or double vision, to occur even when lying down, and to feel better with the eyes closed. If you are a frequent sufferer of dizziness or vertigo, join the group and find support.
I'm new here and so glad to find a support group
for this horrible stuff. I would like to ask a couple questions. First the ENG test, I was suppose to have it years ago but having no insurance prevented me from doing it then, but I know when I go to the ENT, He will have me do it and the question is this, is it really bad? And if they find the damage in the inner ear is there anything they can do to fix it? I absolute hate having this awful dizziness and balance problem, it affect my life so much.

If they find damage, you can recover. It will take some vestibular rehabilitation therapy, (VRT) and some time. Your brain can learn to function without a balance system. There are also some medications that can be helpful, it all depends on what caused the damage in the first place.
