Also there is one medication that I've been prescribed and taking, and that's valium, 2 mg per bad day. It was prescribed first by the ER doc and refilled by the neuropsychiatrist I see.


The medication itself scares the heck out of me because I know how addictive it is, but on really bad days with frantic dizziness and blinding headaches it seems to be the only thing that gives me enough of an edge (not always total relief, sometimes just a toe hold) to start compensating and functioning again.


This may be because of the combined anxiety and PCS issues I have. It was prescribed at first for dizziness, then two more refills because of the effect it was having on my other symptoms. And thank God for counseling. The panic attacks seem to be lessening.
