I still don't have a diagnosis, so I don't know the origin. I was prescribed oxybutynin for bladder control. It really works! I take 1 at night, 1/2 daytime. Hope this may help.

Does anyone have the early stages of Fibromuscular Dysplacia . They believe that is what caused a stroke to my eye. Was dizzy and off balance weeks before but because I am very active contributed it to allergies.

No. No fainting. Just a weird 1-second disorientation. A bit like vertigo.

Yes the day it happened, I had this doomsday feeling come over my who body and then my eye went dark. Two months since this happened I can see light and colors but it is very grainy. The Dr said the darkness would never get better but it did. Nothing I could drive with . But remaining eye I still have vision to see. Hope your vision got better

My MRI said I have Mild Chronic SVD. I have many symptoms and have had them for 4 to 5 years. I have been to doctors telling them something is wrong with my thinking. I have trouble at work remembering what I have done and not done. I don't remember lots of conversations. There are days I have trouble writing emails. I fell out of bed a few months ago and then fell down the stairs after getting out of bed a few weeks ago, so my balance is off at times. I also wake up with mild headaches most morning and sometimes it followed up with dizziness to the point of getting an upset stomach. I am still waiting to get an appointment with a neurologist. I know very little about what is happening to me.
