Vertigo caused by Allergies? Please help me!!!

by lodis123, Aug 16, 2006 12:00AM
Hello,
I really hope someone can help. I recently read a discussion in one of these forums about Vertigo being related to Allergies and a few people were going to try the Joseph Miller technique. I believe the technique has to do with the influenza vaccine in order to conquer HSV-1. I have been a Vertigo sufferer for 9 yrs now and I get it every year at the same time (May and it lasts until Sept). I suffer for a good 4 months and concluded its gotta be allergy related if its always in the Spring. Can someone help and tell me how to administer the Joseph Miller technique? I tried researching it online and cant find anything. I went to every doctor and had every test to find everything is normal. This is my last hope...please help!

Ask the doctor to prescribe you Allegra, or non-drowsy anti-histamine.  I can't give you the medical terminology, but it has something to do with "drying up" the area in the head (inner ear) that causes this.  I have been hospitalized with vertigo before (until I knew what the problem was).  Dizziness, nausea, hyperventilating etc... the whole thing.  Taking Allegra during the "vertigo season" (late summer) totally prevents them from coming on at all.  You have to take one pill a day.  It works as a preventative remedy.  It won't work as well after the dizziness as already started.  I've used Claritin as well, and this also works.  Any "non-drowsy" antihistamine will work.

Email me if you want more support here at gregory_may_jr***@****

Sincerely,
Gregory May

get some local honey and use it like a medicine several times a day, putting it in green tea with lemon. it will help your allergies. When you have vertigo, go online and find a video of the EPLEY maneuver. It works instantly, it's easy, it's natural and  you can do it on yourself after you learn it well. The other techniques are insufficient or laborious. If you don't feel good after it is performed, try it again. Don't lie down with head tilted back, to avoid recurring symptoms.
