Also - an optometrist can give you glasses with prisms which correct DV. I heard Hillary has some. Not sure I want to take the medicine. Anyone have an input please.
Marqui, Pyridostigmine, is not always effective for DV. But it is fast acting and quickly out of the system... so a trial of just 1 x 30 mg, should be no concern at all. If it works, then you need to be taking it every 4 hours.

Prisms can also help with DV. However only if the DV is stable. Since you say that it comes and goes, then it may not be so much help to you. But certainly worth trying.
