I was just diagnosed with Vestibular Migraines and placed on Topamax. I can't add anything about if the meds are helping because their use is new. Fluorescent lighting and computer monitors are devastating to me. I went into a store today that had a malfunctioning fluorescent light and it set me off bad. I became disoriented and dizzy. I forgot where I was and why I was even there. As soon as I turned away from the flashing fluorescent light things normalized. Driving for lengthy periods bring on dizziness as do certain carpet patterns. I know this sounds strange and it is to me too. Hopefully the Topamax brings some improvement.

Good luck to the rest of you,

Rich
