Unhappy I'm Lost

Hi All


I'm feeling quite lost I have had a condition which my neurologists guess is Painless Migraine.

SYMPTOMS: I get a Vertigo like sensation when there are alot of people moving about like a busy office Foyer, or at a shopping centre, I have not driven for 6 months, as i get really light headed like a dizzyness and cannot concentrate it feels like i am in a movie. Have Trouble judging things sometimes like stairs. I constantly have visual snow (like the static on a tv) i get wiggly bubbles in my vision sometimes (this can amuse me for an hour )
I see flashes of light like a camera going off a couple of times a week and sometimes think something is running on the ground but when i look nothing is there. SHapes last in my vision quite a while after i have moved my eyes off of it. At night lights have a massive Aura around them, like a large foggy haze. (I think i got that all out sorry)


TESTS: I have had countless blood tests, a CT, 2 x MRI (Head and Spine), Balance test (the one where they put cold water in your ears), Spianl X-ray, Chest X-ray, and i have also been sent to a Optimologist and had various test completed such as Filed Tests completed, every one of these tests has come back normal.

After all this my Neuro put me on Epilim, which only made things worse, now he has put me on Sandomigran 1mg at night for the last month, it has helped slightly I don't have as much problem with people moving about but i still cannot drive, get my "Vertigo" sensations and see all the funny visual things still.

Has anyone had the same or similar? I am really lost where to go from here, I feel like my options are becoming exhausted, I have a 3 yr old little girl and cant drive her to day care, i also passed up on a really good job for the fact that i cannot drive and needed to.

Any responses are much appreciated.
