I'll try to be brief, but here's my story... in mid-May, I started experiencing light-headed spells (not room spinng, but like floor is unlevel) along with a weird pressure feeling in my head, so I sought many doctors and went thru a VNG test which came back normal. At my follow-up appt on Tuesday, the doctor said that she believes that all of this could be due to anxiety and recommended that I try vestibular therapy for the light-headed spells (which is a technique to make you dizzy and teach you how to work past it) and gave me a prescription for Celexa that she said was up to me if I wanted to try it. Within the weeks that had past, I began seeing a chiropractor which I believe has helped all of my symptoms and I am leery of taking any more medications (i currently take anti-inflammatories and steroids for Rheumatoid Arthritis). My husband wants me to take the pills, but I read the side effects and learned that they can do some nasty things to do.
Also, I don't feel that I have anxiety... sure, I have stress like most people and I do worry about things like finances. I guess I could be in denial, but I'm wondering how other people were diagnosed and what other methods there are to treating it besides meds?
