Hey @addy15! It sounds like you’ve been on quite the vertigo rollercoaster. The forum has some great resources that might help you with dietary advice to manage your symptoms. You might want to check out the “Vestibular Migraine Survival Guide 2014” which has a comprehensive section on diet and lifestyle modifications to help manage migraine and vertigo symptoms. Here’s the link to the guide: Vestibular Migraine Survival Guide 2014.
In general, the guide suggests:
- Regular Schedule: Keep a consistent daily routine, including regular meals and sleep patterns.
- Hydration: Drink plenty of water.
- Diet: Avoid common migraine triggers like aged cheeses, caffeine, alcohol, and processed foods. Focus on fresh, whole foods.
For a more specific approach, the “6 C’s diet” is often recommended for vestibular migraine sufferers, which includes cutting out caffeine, chocolate, cheese, Chinese food (due to MSG), citrus fruits, and certain processed foods.
Remember, you’re not alone in this dizzy journey, and there’s a community here that understands and supports you. Keep tweaking your approach and stay hopeful!
Good luck, and may the spins be ever in your favor!
