Dizziness
 

I am so very over the dizziness.. anyone have any solutions?

I get room spins. It's pretty wild - but saves me money on amusement rides. Kidding aside, is stinks.

There can be many causes ( Meniere's syndrome, Cervical vertigo, BPPV, Perilymph fistula, etc...) of dizziness following an mtbi. Pinpointing the causes(s), can help address the problem. I find good neck posture and rest help reduce my incidences.

How do you experience the dizziness? Do you have vertigo? Is it accompanied by headache? Do you have a full feeling in your ears? Does it happen if you move your neck in certain ways? Is it prompted by loud noises or nose blowing? Could it be a side effect of your medications? etc...

I feel you there. It has improved greatly for me incept for in a few areas. Examples, turning my head to fast and when I do physical stuff. Or when im in loud or visual commotions (weddings busy stores) and driving. the driving is still sketchy at best so i. Limit it

Something to research today Hockey...

The room spins... I had vertigo right after... went away for 2 months.. and then that stupid yoga class brought it all back...

I have had a headache everyday since January 12th... so yes...

No full feeling in my ears... not prompted by loud noises.

My neck moving does make it worse, however it does happen when I just move my eyes...

I took some kind of vision test last week to find the cause of my dizziness/vetigo. had to put on funny goggles. I have ben to lazy to go back for results. when I do, I can find out the name of the test for you.

I have dizziness as well (with occasional vertigo). It's at its worst when I take my evening walks.
Also get it from working on computer and driving.

I've been doing some visual/vestibular therapy (cervico ocular vestibular proprioceptive exercises) with my PT doc for about a month now, but haven't seen any substantial progress so far.

I've been doing the vestibular exercises for months with little difference. Certain things set the dizzies off, but turning my head back and forth is the worst. I'm still not allowed to drive because of it.

I probably should not be able to drive... I was in vestibular therapy for a month.. 3 days a week.. did nothing... looking down makes me dizzy too... so speedometer to the road is a bad idea..

I don't know why I still go, I've had PT for over 3 months and it doesn't seem to do anything any more. I take meclizine for the dizziness but no I've started adderall for concentration and I'm solid dizzy for 8 hours. My doctor said my body will get use to it, but it's just laid me out mire. I'm going to have to start driving when my daughter starts school bc they don't bus kindergarteners home even if they're all day.

My dizziness seems to happen mostly when walking or standing and I look quickly up/down/side. Sometimes for no reason at all I will be walking through the house and I notice I am moving to the left with every step. I don't get dizzy driving but I am careful not to move my neck quickly. I use my mirrors a lot! I still limit my driving distance though. I am not on specific meds for dizziness, however, it could be some of my meds too. Computer usage, intense concentration and loud/busy places make me dizzy (my musician's earplugs come in handy for this). Squatting down ends up with me falling over 90% of the time. I can relate but cannot pinpoint the cause. I am just at 1 year post-concussion.
