Constant Dizziness

[sfkid]

I have been suffering from dizziness for the past 2 months. I am a 27 year old male. It is a feeling of unsteadiness and things are always moving like the walls, grounds or objects as if you're on a boat. I've had this a year ago which lasted for 2 weeks and went away naturally. Excatly a year later it came back and it's been 2 months of constant non-stop dizziness.

Does anybody out there know if there is a cure to this? I've seen doctors of all kinds without much explaination to the causes of this problem. Please if you know anything that can help relieve the symptom or more important correct the problem I would love to hear from you.

I will even travel and send you a Christmas gift if you can direct me to someone who can help. This problem has ruined my life and now I can't do anything but sleep in bed and close my eyes. Any help would be so greatly appreciated.

I really agree with your post. I have had Agoraphobia for over 40 years after find Dr. Debbie at www.vsofm.com and having prisms put into my glasses, my symptoms are gone. Yes it was that simple and yes you are right there are to my knowledge only two eye doctors in the country that know how to do this. One in California and Dr. Debbie in Michigan. You mentioned a third, I would love to know where the third one is. The answer is simple but how to get to Michigan or California is the problem. To get you life back to normal is very much worth the effort. I hope more people out there will believe it is this simple.

I experienced a HORRIBLE attack of Vertigo several years ago. Went to the ER and they referred me back to my PCP who prescribed Meclizine for the dizziness and nausea. All it did was make me feel tired. After 4 weeks with no improvement I was referred to a physica therapist who specializes in Vertigo. She was my savior! She showed me some simple maneuvers that helped get my vertigo under control. It didnt happen immediatlely but I could feel it getting better day by day. Eventually it went away totally (took about another 2 weeks) I still get attacks of vertigo but I am ale to control it with the maneuvers I was taught to do at home and if I catch it quick it goes away in a day or too. Hope this helps!

FINALLY!!! Someone took the words right out of my mouth!!! I have been experiencing the EXACT SAME THING for over a year now. I was also driving and had absolutely no warning that my episode was coming on. One second I felt normal and the next second I didn't. I have been mis-diagnosed, re-diagnosed, & un-diagnosed over and over again. I have been instructed not to drive by the docs and i am afraid to attempt to drive, but my husband is becoming inpatient with me because he is the primary caregiver to both myself & my mother in law, who suffers from alzheimer's. Do you have any suggestions for me about how to cope with this mystery illness that we have and any ideas on how to make life easier for ppl like us???
