Hi guys,
I posted her around a year ago, explaining that I’d been suffering from the occasional vestibular migraine for around 10 years but had always been misdiagnosed. I suddenly started feeling symptoms (below) 24/7 in March of last year and after seeing multiple neurologists I found a potential diagnosis in VM.
When I posted here, I told one of my friends about it and fast forward to today and she sent me a message reminding me that I should update you all!
As of August last year I started feeling 50% better, come November and I was at 70%, January 80% and now in April I’m at 90%
I’m back working full time and am even playing team sport again!
I know that this thing can be cyclical so I don’t want to get my hopes up too much BUT what I am experiencing right now is it least proof that you can feel (mostly) normal again!
