Hi Adam, everyone
Hope you all managed to have a good Xmas/New Year. I’ve been lucky, I have just come off a really good spell of around 4 weeks dizzy free. The beauty of it is that I was on no medication what so-ever. So far I have tried Pizotifen, Propranolol and Verapmil. I found that I had good and really bad spells at no particular times whether I was on the drugs or not (sound familiar to some?). I feel now that it was just coincidence that I was having a good spell whilst on a certain drug, therefore, I decided to stop taking all of them.
Personally, I think I have some kind of Fistula in my inner ear that goes through stages of repairing itself (this is when I feel good) and opening up when I’m over doing it with stress, doing weights, whatever (this is when I feel bad). I suspect this Adam because as you mentioned a while back, I feel the symtoms when I blow my nose (I get really dizzy). I feel the Dr’s didn’t pick it up on my MRI’s and Cat scans the first time. I was actually feeling good when I had them so the fistula (if I have one) could have been closed at the time.
I am seeing a really good Neuro in March so I will look into my theory closly with him. After the stress and effort of the festive season I am starting to feel dizzy again. We’ll see how long it lasts this time. I know everyone has different symtoms and theorys, but if this story sounds familiar to you, maybe you should look into it also!
Cheers everyone
Tib.
