Hello all,
I'm writing here because in my country i couldn't find someone with my symptoms and not even the doctors know what happens to me. It all started 4 years ago, after a stressful period and some kind of depression which i tried to treat with some hearb remedies which combined 60 plants. The person who gave the remedies told me they would work for my brain but also for my formonal problems but warned me that i would feel very sick in the first days of the treatment because they clean all my body. And i felt sick indeed. I could not take that treatment because i was feeling more and more sick. From that moment on, i started to have this dizziness and lack of equilibrium sensation like i was on a boat or like the down side of my body was made of water that waved on every move i made. The doctors gave me Cipralex and the "wave sensation" is better but i still have a strange feeling on the right side of my body. It is like a diziness, a lack of coordonation which makes me feel unconfortable when i'm sitting or when i'm standing. Just like my brain doesn't send all the commands to that side of my body. I made 3 MRIs and all the nvestigations needed but nothing seems to be wrong. If so, what do i have to do? I will live with this sensation until i grow old and die? I'm only 27 years old Pls help |

I would suggest you get a B12 test done. If you are low, you can have a form of vertigo/dizziness as a common symptom.
You should be over 400pg/ml in US units (don't know the format for testing where you are from however) Also taking so many plant herbs can be dangerous. They can be contaminated with heavy metals or pesticides, even, besides being poisonous in their own right.

result of 170pg/ml is low.... but what does the 10x mean?
Does that mean 1700pg/ml? The new cut off for normal in US is 400pg/ml.

I suggest you start at 5mg a day of active methylcobalamin type B12 oral. Take this only on an empty stomach.
In 3 months get another test if you can to see how much you have changed. You should be above 400 and perhaps as high as 1000 or more. When you reach 1000, you can then reduce to 5mg twice a WEEK or take 1mg a day instead. Somehow you got so low, so you will probably have to take B12 for life.
