Hi
I havent posted for a while but thought it would be good to hear that someone has pretty much fully recovered.
Since taking Pitozifen (migraine preventative) I have been between 98-100% all the time.
Sometimes I still feel a little 'off'- but it doesnt bother me anymore.
Its normally if Im really tired or been working hard when I have problems.
good luck

Great job Dizzy! I have read a number of your posts...I am so glad you are at 100%...
How long have you had labs? How did you find out you have mav?
Again, way to go!!!

Hey there. I'm new to this but I was interested to know what your orignal symptoms were. I was diagnosed with menieres 4 years ago. I have had varied luck with medicine, supplements, accupuncture and chiropractic. I have had times that I felt 95% but only for short periods (2 weeks or so.) Lately it has been rough and I'm getting very frustrated. I will look into the medicine you mentioned.

Hi All
I think the medicine may have helped ( or given me a sort of boost) or it could just be time.
As I said I only really feel off if Im tired, hungover or get a cold.
But it used to be much worse.
It does get better- just takes time

did you ever have problems with things like if your sitting on a couch and someone is like shaking their leg or moving the couch that you start to feel off even more?
did you do any vrt? when did you start to realize your better?

I dont do any VRT- I'm not really sure the cause of mine.
I just leaped from like 95% to 99/100% when i started taking Pitozifen.
Dont really have many setbacks anymore
Dont worry- it will drift away....

Comeandrelax - I get a feeling of being dropped sometimes when someone in the room near me moves or goes to speak. It is like a quick shock feeling or a dropping sensation lasting only a second or two. Weird. I don't think this was like that in the beginning of the illness. I think it is a symptom that came as time went on.
