Default Is anyone else still dizzy?

Hi there

I guess I'm just looking for some support. After over 2 years I still have this constant dizzy / off balance / and "heavy" feeling in my head. Some days it is worse than others. Activity and busy environments make it worse. I can't move around freely and always have to be careful not to get too dizzy.

I've been doing vestibular therapy which helped a lot in the first 2 years. Now it's helpfulness has seemed to wane. I feel like my neck has something to do with it. I've had that treated with good results, but something is still "off" with my neck.

I am starting vision therapy and hoping that will help some more. But I am at a loss for what else to do. Some days it is very hard to deal with the dizzy feeling.

Has anyone else been dizzy for this long? How do you deal with it in daily life?

Thank you
