Fukuda Stepping Test
 
Hi

Anyone know what this test is used to diagnose? I've been dizzy for last 2 months. I keep rotating a little bit to my left while marching in place with eyes closed. Thanks!

It's one test used in evaluation of the vestibular system.

Thank you!

I was diagnosed with positional vertigo, but I don't feel as if my symptoms match with my diagnosis. My symptoms wax and wane. I have good days and bad days and even good moments and bad moments.

My most worrisome is that I will get brain fog/dazed/spaced out feeling and I can't pinpoint why exactly. I never had this feeling before so I'm getting worried. It's been on and off for the last 2-3 months.
