I'm surprised that blood work to check vitamin and mineral levels is not part of our annual physical since it is a known issue as we age. My cardiologist put me on vitamin D3 and B12 years ago and I still take my multivitamin each night. If more effort was put into prevention, maybe we wouldn't need to see as many doctors.

My doctor says the dizziness and balance issues stem from being dehydrated, which is very easy in AZ. I drink water and no sugar sport drinks to alleviate this. When working on the computer and I feel an episode coming on, I grab another drink and it seems to alleviate the feeling.
