Where do I begin. I too am dealing with what seems to be chronic dizziness, going on 2.5 years now. I went down the road of traditional medicine only to still be dealing with the dizziness, and its gotten worse over the last few months. I started out with my PCP, who recommended an ENT dr...had audio testing, MRI...came back normal. I went through 8 weeks of vestibular therapy...no problems to speak about. I went to an audio/dizziness clinic for pretty extensive testing @ U of Chicago Medicine (Dr. Cherchi)...no help with my dizziness. I went to see a Neurologist...no problems to be found. I even spent my own money for several sessions with an Acupuncturist...didn't help. I could add a few more paths I chose for help, but they didn't help either. Over the last year 1.5 years or so, I've noticed that my memory isn't as sharp and I get a confused/concentration/fogginess. I just turned 60 and sure hope I get some relief soon!
I only came across your Comment by mistake, as I wanted to see if the Mayo Clinic could recommend any vitamins that may help with the dizziness. I may look into the vitamins that you refer to...sure wish one of the bozo doctors that I've seen would have mentioned one of them.
Thanks for sharing your story, as you never know if your information might help someone in need.
Thanks a million, missbeverly! Not that I wish this syndrome on anyone, but it is a comfort to know one is not alone -- or crazy. While it's great that all your tests come back normal, it also makes you acknowledge medicine's limitations. Your regular use of supplements is encouraging. Inositol is new to me. Don't you feel you alone are keeping Amazon afloat? My gut, pun intended, tells me probiotics ARE really, really important. Health starting in the gut microbiome and all. It's so logical. I truly hope you start feeling better soon. Sending hugs....shashig
