Vertigo on overdrive after eating
Still waiting to see ENT for Vertigo lasting for well ever a month.
My Vertigo never goes away but a pattern is starting to appear.
My Vertigo gets really bad after eating for a couple hours.
I had bloodwork done and blood sugar levels were fine.
I am on meclizine which has been upped to 3 times a day
It helps me from getting to the point where i vomit.
Has anybody else had their Vertigo get worse right after eating?
Thank You

Hi da69!
I'm sorry to hear you are having such an awful time with your vertigo; especially when it interferes with your eating! I have a mild case of vertigo but nothing so severe as yours. What are you eating that it reacts so strongly? I eat food without any preservatives when I can. Also, my husband and I make a lot of things from scratch and we never eat out. Eating naturally as possible seems to have helped us stay healthy. Have you looked up the side effects of your medications? That could be causing some of your problems also. We also drink a lot of water and Gatorade which helps balance your electrolytes. I hope things get better for you!

I moved your latest post about your vertigo being on "overdrive" after eating to your original discussion.
