Chronic CVST and living with seizures, mini strokes. Have this?

Hi Lisa,
yes but it's improved slightly as it happens mostly in the morning as i'm waking up. one thing i did notice upon looking at my medical lab records is that i've had low electrolytes (sodium, potasssium, and chloride) for 2-3 years. apparently that can mess with your nerves and muscles including those in the ears. i recently (1 month ago) corrected my levels for all 3 to healthy levels but i haven't seen the benefits yet. Do you know if this just takes time or am i going down another wrong track?

@jacoblamb - that sounds astute to be observing and working to rectify your electrolytes. As we are not medical professionals here and serve as a patient support community, I don't have medical expertise to lend for your question.
Hoping that other members in this CVST discussion may have ideas on how it works to raise your electrolytes and get some benefit from doing so, including @jprenewed78 @fowler0822 @bextruelove. A few other members have commented on working on electrolytes in a post-COVID discussion and also may have ideas for you @janetbender @shirljk @welchllb.
