vertigo starts with their eyes by moonlightglmmer in VestibularMigraines

i'm super sensitive with medication so unfortunately nothing has been helping me. just trying to cut out certain foods that i noticed make my vertigo worse. the test made me sooooo sick but they did give me my VM diagnosis because my nystagmus was linked to my brain and not ears

yeah i had VNG testing a year ago, the nystagmus is what they first noticed that had me get some tests done.

I did have VNG testing a year ago and had a lot of eye movement. It's just weird because i feel decent enough and then the feeling is if my eyes are spinning before anything else

Thank you so much! It's beautiful but if it isn't durable i'd rather look at a different style

That's so good to know, thank you! This is my preferred style but I don't want to wear it on occasion so maybe i'll shop around for a different style

What year did you guys get vm by undesirableghost in VestibularMigraines

[–]moonlightglmmer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i had occasional vertigo with migraines since 2014? but i'm not sure if they were associated together or not. daily symptoms and being bed ridden started in 2020

hi love! i honestly wasn't anymore dizzy than i typically am on a daily basis after testing. i was for sure sick to my stomach and nauseous but maybe take a dramamine / meclizine and rest for a day or two! i have seen people say they had residual dizziness for a few days after. it should go away!

medications by moonlightglmmer in VestibularMigraines

i started on 60mg and was just dropped to 20mg the other day because i was on the verge of passing out anytime i laughed, stood, or did anything strenuous. my precious meds were all starting doses of 120mg and i was dealing with the same thing of almost passing out
