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.
For a smaller number of patients, medical treatment (lifestyle changes, diet and/or medication) are the primary treatment, with VRT either secondary or not required.
The key to effective treatment is accurate diagnosis. Dizziness or vertigo are SYMPTOMS, not diagnoses. they can be caused by literally dozens of different disorders. There is no single treatment that covers all the possible causes.
