Hi im 25 years old male and im already losing hope to my dizziness... I went to alot of doctors and nothing works... I have tried serc,vert,stugeron,betavert etc nothing helps! I have problem with my balance and everytime i walk its like im swaying or falling down when ever i stand i feel like im falling for no reason... Am i the only 1 suffering this? Anyone have solution? It would help me alot
Can you please completely spell out all the things you've tried? I don't understand what you are writing. Here's the people you need to see: Start with an Ear Nose and Throat Specialist, they may refer you to a neurologist and / or a vestibular specialist. Go to both. The vestibular therapist was able to do tests and diagnose just what my problem is, a 56% balance loss on the left side due to a virus. She gave me specific vestibular exercises to do several times a day. She told me which medications I'm taking that are causing my brain not to compensate, and which I need to stop taking after discussing it with the prescribing physician. There are so many reasons for dizziness. It took me over a year and a half to find the vestibular specialist that diagnosed me.
OK, firstly no, you are not the only one with this awful, but hopefully, short term illness. Please us know how long you have had this and did it start with the usual vomitting session? All will be well so please don't despair, Jon
No, you are not alone, as you'll see from this site.. I think it is very hard to describe the symptoms, but you sound a bit like me. After seeing a cardiologist and ENT which ruled out heart or ears as the problem a neurologist thought it was migraine associated vertigo, so you must make sure you get to see all the relevant specialists. Good luck
Almost 3 years, nop no vomitting feeling just dizziness and imbalance...
I have tried alot of doctors but nothing works
Im still.looking for specialist but most of them keep saying its just a lack of sleep...
You can looking into Vertical Hetrophoria which is an eye condition. Are things better if you close one eye? Other things to look into are your SCM Muscle in your neck. When it is out of wack it can mess you up. Did you have a blood test? Look for your Vitiamin D, B12, Iron, and Magnesium levels, they can make you feel this way when they are really low. Have you been to a chiropractor? If there is a spiner issue that can be the problem. There is a forum called dizzy times, look it up, it's a forum for people like us.
Are your doctors trying to help you get some sleep? Have you gone to a psychiatrist? Gone to Cognitive Behavior Therapy. There are a bazillion reasons for not sleeping well. Lorazepam, 1 mg., works great for me when all else failed, but in the best situations it is not to be used long term. It's important that you get good sleep. Try pursuing this avenue and once you get good sleep you will see if the other symptoms, dizziness, etc., go away on their own. Some physician needs to take charge of your health and feel responsible for it.
PS: There is no "Just" a lack of sleep. Sleep is extremely important and afects one's health and how one feels greatly.
Thanks for ur answer i would go to chiropractor, and i just noticed i cant eat much where i make my stomach full... Cuz if i ate alot more than i eat ill get more dizzy and feel bad
Yes thats what they always say just get 8-10hrs sleep, i always sleep 3-5am and wake up 10-1pm
Thanks for your reply and yes im trying to sleep alot but the prob is i couldnt and even if i go to bed at 9pm ill be awake until 3-4am and wake up 10am -1pm its really reallly hard this way
i presume you have been trying the excersises to try and relive the syptoms?
Are you sure they are not caused by anxiety? try sitting in a chair and looking upwards over your shoulder, if the dizziness is not there then maybe anxiety.
Just a thought, because i had that for years then went to see a hypnotheripist which stopped it. Unfortunatley i do now have vertigo just wont stop like your self.
