Hat jemand mit VRT begonnen und sich die Symptome verschlechtert? Ich fühle mehr Druck im Kopf und wenn ich eine Meile laufe, fühle ich mich Stunden später, als ob alles nicht stimmt und ich zu drehen beginne. Ich mache seit zwei Wochen VRT und führe meine Übungen 3-mal am Tag durch, wenn ich kann. Normalerweise 5 Sätze von 60 Sekunden für die meisten davon. Ich versuche auch, mehr rauszugehen, seit der Vestibuläre Neuritis begonnen hat, daher bin ich mir nicht sicher, ob ich mich einfach zu sehr anstrenge, was die Symptome verschlimmert?
When I started VRT I got much dizzier and the therapist said I was doing them to fast and long. I started the gaze stabilization for 2 mins doing the up and down and sude to side movements so I was I total of 4 mins each time, so we dropped it to 30 seconds each way and that helped and from there would add 15 seconds a week so the dizziness would last all week. I also had pressure to but once the head got used to it that stopped. I also do the standing in the corner with the chair in front and just stand there for 2 mins with my hand at my side but the key is to start with you feet about 3 inches apart and each week get them closer together this helps balance. Now she has added the corner thing with my eyes closed turning my head to the left and right.
It sounds like they have you doing to much to fast so you might want to tell the therapist so they can slow it down some. Some people can move fast but some of us can't. It's bad enough having dizzibess but to add to it, makes you want to stop all of the exercises.
Same thing happened to me. For about a week my symptoms got worse. I wanted to cry and quite frankly I did. I was doing it too much. I cut back on the amount of repetitions. I cut back to 2 times a day. I'm just trying to get to 3 now. I was told by a number of people on a few message boards it gets worse before it gets better. I think that's true. I really think it's helping me. It's such a slow process though.
Der Therapeut hat langsamere Übungen und eine kürzere Dauer empfohlen, aber ich bin ein Perfektionist und wollte besser, schneller und mehr Sätze machen und auch das Gehen einbeziehen... Okay, also denkst du, es ist normal, dass es mich schlechter gemacht hat? Habe ich durch das Überanstrengen noch mehr Schaden angerichtet? Ich möchte keinen weiteren Schaden verursachen.
Ich war gerade schockiert, weil die schlimmen Gefühle erst Stunden nach den Übungen und dem Gehen auftraten. Gestern Abend wurde es so schlimm, dass ich fast umkippte. Zum Glück hatte ich Valium dabei... Ich bin jetzt zwei Wochen in der VRT, also sollte ich mich wohl nicht so sehr anstrengen wie ich es getan habe. Aber ich merke erst, wie sehr ich mich anstrenge, wenn es zu spät ist. Denn direkt nach der Übung fühle ich mich gut... erst später fange ich an, mich schlechter zu fühlen. Verstehst du, was ich meine?
That's exactly how it was for me. I'm part of a group on facebook Cure Vertigo Now Support Group. The man that runs it (Bobby Gibbs) is a physical therapist who actually has VN. I asked him questions and he got right back to me. He also has a free book on Amazon called "The Vertigo Treatment: A simple step by step guide for treating vertigo". It's very helpful and shows how to progress the exercises. When I told him what was happening he suggested I cut back on the exercises. His words were they're simple but very potent. If you have a kindle or access to one download it. It's very short (66 pages) and most of it is illustations. It's very helpful and so is he. He's in the U.K.
I wanted to do more also but it makes things worse and for me I would get very anxious because with mine my anxiety came back. So I think taking it slower lets the brain catch up easier. I figured even if it takes me longer to get better at least I won't be dizzier all the time. It's working very good now and I'm hoping the dizziness will ease off.
Vielen, vielen Dank! Ich werde es auf Facebook suchen und auch nach dem Buch schauen!!!
Vielen Dank!!! Was du gesagt hast, hat mich beruhigt… Ich möchte einfach nur wieder zur Arbeit gehen und mein Leben wieder anfangen zu leben… 7 Wochen davon waren die Hölle! Auf und Ab!
Hattest du auch wirklich starke Angstzustände und Gehirnnebel? Es ist, als ob ich weiß, wo ich bin und die Menschen und Dinge um mich herum, aber es scheint fast, als wäre ich in einem Nebel oder abgekoppelt…
Yes I have that and it's horrible. It's the symptom I have most. I don't have vertigo any longer but u have the anxiety and brain fog.
I have been going through the same mess too. I am almost 15 weeks in from onset. VRT makes me worse too, I have been going for nearly 6 weeks now. My balance is pretty good, but the eye exercises are hard on me. I feel unsteady,fuzzy headed, lightheaded/woozy nearly all the time. I will have an ok day here and there but even then its still with me!!I just wish it would end.
You sound just like me. Good balance but whoozy fuzzy light headed.
It is terrible. I have two small kids and I feel like I am missing out on everything. I don't feel like doing much anymore. I miss running and playing outside with my boys. Stores KILL me. Last night and today haven't been good at all. I am so tired of it. How long have you had it now?
I've had it since September 2015. I will say the vestibular rehab helps. Today I'm feeling pretty good. But every day is different. Are you doing the VRT? The exercise I have most difficulty is following a pen with my head moving at an angle up/down left/right then right/left with one foot in front of the other. It's the toughest but challenges me. Push yourself. I know it's not easy. I do cry at bedtime. But I make myself live life. 💗
Wow, I'm sorry. I don't wish this mess on anyone!! How much have you progressed since Sept 2015? I am scared this crap is never going away.
I started VRT about a month ago. I don't see where it has helped yet. But I am going to keep it up.
We work on balance at my weekly appt. Right now they have me holding a card with a dot at arms length, feet together. For one minute I took side to side keeping my eye on the dot, then for one mintue I look up and down. THEN what gets me is I sit and move the card and my head in opposite direction (right and left, then up and down) while keeping focus on the dot
I have more exercises than that and we've been going about the same amount of time. Maybe ask for a few more. Don't go too fast. I made that mistake and paid dearly. I'm better than I was but some days feel like square one. I'm trying everything. Vitamin regiments. Acupuncture. Neck exercises. You name it.
Yeah, he is taking it slow with me. The first time I had to flow the moving card, it put me out of comission for days. Yeah, I've been trying vitamins too. Ginger and apple cide vinegar. Nothing yet is helping. Crap, I'd stand on my head and spit quarters if it would make it GO AWAY.
Don't give up I have had it intermittently over the last five and a half years. Worst time was when I could not sit up and had to cling onto the walls.I have had many falls.the last was in October when I hit my head and badly bruised my hands knees elbows and sacroiliac joint. I have had several MRI head and ear scans to rule out the nasties as I was so weak down one side I could not lift my leg or walk one foot in front of the other.I have been having Physio since October and my balance is much improved and I can carry washing upstairs without clinging onto walls.I don't need a stick anymore for balance.I still have daily headaches but have not been to bed so much this month with them.I can hang the washing out without missing the line.I know all our bodies are different but I use ear plugs at cinema and wear dark glasses so the brain does not get overloaded. Hope this helps.
Wow! Zum Glück habe ich noch nicht das Gefühl gehabt, umzufallen... aber es ist mehr die Schwindelgefühle und das Gefühl, betrunken oder high zu sein, das schlimmer ist... Ich bin mir nicht sicher, ob man das Gehirnnebel nennt oder nicht.
Ich habe heute eine halbe Meile gewandert, dabei fühlte ich mich unwohl und unsicher, aber ich habe durchgehalten, aber Stunden später beginnt mein Gehirn schwer zu werden... Ich bin erschöpft und fühle mich betrunken... es ist das schlimmste Gefühl überhaupt. Es ist, als wäre man in seinem Gehirn gefangen und hätte keinen Ausweg.
