I had a Cerebellar Stroke about 3 months ago. I can tell you that if the doctors and therapist say that the Vertigo is due to damage, there really isn’t anything you can do about it. My Vertigo lasted about two months, but no one ever told me that the Vertigo was due to a damage.
I only threw up several times in the emergency room and then a few days due to the tubes in my mouth. Once they took the tubes off, I haven’t thrown up or feel nauseas ever since.
I also lost my balance and for most of the rehab I have been on a walker. It was only last week when I transitioned to a cane.

I help folks cuz so many people helped me. And it's who I am.
I am 68 years old, I have had 19 surgeries in my life. Diagnosed with multiple sclerosis 35 years ago.
I am sick to death of doctors. I used to be on 16 medicines, 6 of which were sedating...I am off every single one of them.
.
When the doctors were in charge, I spent years in bed. Been there, didn't like it, don't wanna do it again. Now I can only speak for myself here.
.
I decided to take charge of my life. I got to know enlightened people, people with gifts of healing. I listened. I asked questions. I did reflexology, Accupuncture, chiropractic, kinesiology.
.
Ask at your local health food store. Talk to an Herbalist there...and ask for suggestions. Trust your gut...it will tell you if something someone says will help you.
.
Someone told me about CBD last summer. I started taking it and realized it helped my multiple sclerosis...I stopped falling down. It took care of my nausea and my tremors.
.
I take 25 mg 3 times a day. But don't start out at that...start out with 25 mg and let your body tell you when you need more...there is a group here in Mayo Clinic Connect for CBD. Go there and read your little heart out. You will be glad you did.
.
I remember you are in Scotland? I don't know if its legal there, but I will take this wonderful healing plant medicine until the day I die.
.
I also was told about a product that is bringing my brain back to life. It is called Ultra Colloidal Gold. Company name, Source Naturals. Cost $9.59
I receive no compensation from the company.
.
What it does is wake up unused portions of your brain and repair it.
My MS is so much better. I feel better. My balance is much better...I will take this until I die also.
The third product I use us called Wild Shiaga. Company name, American Dream Nutrition. I receive no compensation. It gives me energy and repairs my immune system. Again, I will take this until I die.
.
BTW, I went camping last weekend and am going camping again this weekend. I expect 50 to 75 of my friends to show up also.
.
I took my life back...AND IT TAKES AN ACTION TO FEEL BETTER.
.
So what does your gut tell you to do.
.
I have a bunch of mottos that keep me going...
I am the Energizer Bunny...I keep going and going and going...
One foot I front of the other gets you a long long way. ..
Take an action to change your life...
.
Ian, I hope this helps...and on those really difficult days...my best friend motto...FAKE IT TILL YOU MAKE IT.
I also studied how to give myself endorphins...and how to avoid negative chemical dumps...changed my life...that put me in control of how I felt...
I wish you well, Ian...Bright Wings, who is really flying now!
Hi, fortunately , my vertigo / nausea has in the main has gone. The medication I was given that seemed to work for me was cyclizine, I believe its an antihistamine. Importantly - Speak to your doctor before taking it though, as too much can make you high and stop your bladder from emptying properly amongst other things.
