Welcome, @rocky5311 . I’m inviting @ronnie3716 @gailb @hollyn @janetfinkel @frank1 @ronnie3716 @mentor51@blindeyepug @freefromdrug1 @mentor51 and @jay_baruch into this discussion because they also have changed their dosage of Lexapro (escitalopram) and may have some thoughts and experiences to share.

Have you seen anything else work for you to control the dizziness when it occurs?

It just goes by its own its on and off or constant or not there at all . My mri is normal ( took twice ) , ears normal , heart normal , lungs normal and neurological point of viw also normal ; even blood tests normal . Its been like this for 6 years .
Waht i have noticed is i get dizzy attack which lasts for 2-3 months every 6 yeas especially towards end of the year. Is this anxiety am i born with it ?
