Hello @kimrichards463, Welcome to Connect. This is an older discussion but I'm hoping @nitalisa will be able to share some information on MDDS with you. If you would like to seek help from Mayo Clinic, contact one of the appointment offices. The contact information for Minnesota, Arizona and Florida can be found here http://mayocl.in/1mtmR63.

Mayo Clinic does have some related information on diagnosing and treating balance problems related to vestibular disorders here - https://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/balance-problems/diagnosis-treatment/drc-20350477.

I also found these references that might be helpful:
--- Vestibular Disorders Association - Mal de Débarquement: https://vestibular.org/article/diagnosis-treatment/types-of-vestibular-disorders/mal-de-debarquement/
--- Dizziness and Balance Testing - Mayo Clinic (YouTube video): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gk6oGF7AVGI

Can you share what your symptoms are?

Hi John,
I haven't spent any time with this Mal de Débarquement since I last posted, 2019.
It is a condition my spouse has and he has no interest in pursuing treatment or reasons of it for himself.
I have my own theories about his condition. I believe he has "it" and he uses the condition as a way for him to avoid moving forward in his life.
This journey is now his to pursue.
Good luck and Best wishes to All as you figure it out for each and All.
