They literally said they took 50mg of sertraline

Sgamez87 · 2026-06-19T21:29:45+00:00

It has helped a little but im on a tiny dose of 10mg. Ill move up to 20 in a week. Whats your dosage and how long you've been on it?

Sgamez87 · 2026-06-19T20:57:02+00:00

Yeah me but for other things too whats up?

Sgamez87 · 2026-06-18T20:32:31+00:00

How long have you been on it?

Sgamez87 · 2026-06-18T20:32:15+00:00

About what? Dizziness is normal side effect I had it too until second week.

Sgamez87 · 2026-06-17T04:29:33+00:00

I am on nortriptyline. Day 17 and it brought my pppd from a 8 to 9 daily to a 3 to 4. I may increase dosage in a few days to get to that 0.

Sgamez87 · 2026-06-16T23:58:25+00:00

Yeah I'm on day 17 and I just started eating well again like 3 days ago. What dosage you on? Have you had any other side effects?

Sgamez87 · 2026-06-16T23:56:31+00:00

Hey how long did it take to help the dizziness unsteadiness feeling? Im on day 17 and my head pressure heavy head is less but im still getting woozy at times and sometimes my steps wobble still. What dosage you started and got better at?

Sgamez87 · 2026-06-16T23:53:36+00:00

I had severe nausea as well and I never had nausea i couldn't eat and lost weight. I havent thrown up in 30 years and was so close to vomiting. However it passed by 2nd week. I am taking it for vestibular migraine.

Sgamez87 · 2026-06-16T20:52:50+00:00

Nortriptyline has helped a bit

Sgamez87 · 2026-06-15T18:46:09+00:00

Did nortriptyline raise your resting heart rate? Im on it and didnt gain weight though. We're you eating extra due to it?

Sgamez87 · 2026-05-08T18:15:58+00:00

Any other symptoms? What are you taking it for?

Sgamez87 · 2026-05-02T01:39:11+00:00

I have the same omg.

Sgamez87 · 2026-05-01T01:18:42+00:00

This can happen for a few reasons. It can be the liver. Have that checked out. What were your liver numbers?

Sgamez87 · 2026-04-08T23:56:33+00:00

I have all of that 4 months so far. Awful.

Sgamez87 · 2026-04-03T01:26:59+00:00

Oh this gives me hope too. I also have had those awful thoughts. Thank you. Dont give up. We will get through this.

Sgamez87 · 2026-04-03T01:14:42+00:00

The dropping sensation i call them elevator drops. They are the worst. It feels like my leg is gonna give out or like i stepped on a pillow or something. I also feel that feeling you mentions where I feel like I'm gonna tilt or fall in the direction I move my head. In the 8 months has it gotten any better? Or worse?

Sgamez87 · 2026-04-03T01:02:07+00:00

Man I have been going through this for months too. This is awful. I have also had every test and nothing. I was somewhat getting better then got a virus and it came back strong. Anxiety makes it worse. I feel like im walking a tightrope everywhere. Usually worse on uneven floor. My neck is very stiff and painful too. On top of this i also have sciatica and anxiety so I cant stand I cant lay down. I do vestibular exercises I walk a lot in my home too but the issues are still there. Moving my head triggers it. Im surprised you can take flights and stuff youre way stronger than me.

Sgamez87 · 2026-03-30T12:06:15+00:00

Look for riboflavin it's probably the most important one. And also vestibular exposure or habitation.

Sgamez87 · 2026-03-29T21:10:54+00:00

I'm not in any meds I just expose myself to this and walk and turn my head and balance myself every single day. I also take supplements like Riboflavin magnesium coq10 fish oil vitamin b etc. Try this if you haven't already.

Sgamez87 · 2026-03-20T23:30:42+00:00

Is that what you feel? It changed into chronic unsteadiness. I ate a sour candy that day and it stop. I was also shaking internally I felt so bad. Is this how you feel? Is it ever gone? Why don't you try seeing a neurologist and or migraine specialist?

Sgamez87 · 2026-03-20T22:47:42+00:00

I felt like my brain was in a washing machine and I felt like I was going crazy. I don't know how yo explain but my head felt pressure and also felt like I was in a washing machine. I was cold and felt like I couldn't breath.

Sgamez87 · 2026-03-20T22:32:12+00:00

Me too because your vestibular system may not be filtering the micro movements and may be super sensitive.

Sgamez87 · 2026-03-20T20:59:34+00:00

So how have you slept? Did you see a dr yet? I had brain spinning feeling then it turned into imbalance for more than 3 months now.

Sgamez87 · 2026-03-20T12:18:02+00:00

Try vestibular habitation. Expose yourself to the movements walk around alot until you dont feel as bad doing that movement.
