By the way? For those who do the syncope junk, a question: after I go down, I’m out for two days afterwards— mostly sleeping. Has your recovery period been shorter or quicker? Not asking for fixes, just curious.

Thank you. I was never a nap taker so I feel guilty sometimes but lots of people have it worse.

glasses or contacts? expensive?

Glasses. Takes a specialist trained in these lenses. I don't think the cost was exorbitant. He has had two sets.

Sorry to hear this.
I am dealing with the same issues, and others, since Aug 2021. Never believed in the vaccines, to much unknown.
And to think they were giving these to kids!!!
Good luck.

Ugh I am so sorry. I had the same issues and Physical Therapy would make it worse for me until I found a Physical Therapist that knew how to do the Levine Protocol. That has helped my dizziness, lightheadedness, and balance issues so much. Also getting regular NAD+IV therapy has helped with that too. Good luck 🙁

Yes!! It takes between 2-3 days!
Thank you for asking this— it’s so validating that we experience the SAME … uh, dumb…. Thing!

my balance is shot, i am 40 and was very athletic. When i do the calculations from my results, i lost 90%+ of my vestibular system associated with balance in both ears. The test is called a sensory organization test. My whole vestibular system is shot, and now i have oscillopsia due to this.

Hello,
I am new to the chat group. One of my symptoms (complaints) to my Neurologist are weakness and dizziness. I have fallen/stumble 3-4 times in the last 2 years. I too continue to ensure I keep up with my COVID Pfizer, most recently in Sept 2023. I never thought to blame the vaccine but now......?? I guess I had prior compliants like toe twitching (which worsened after Covid and continues) I also have knee pain which they blame arthritis (I am maturing/older) and worked out. I did not go to physical therapy. I manage my pain with CBD & Cannibus gummies along with prescribed meds (pregabilin & lyrica) to name a few. I continue to complian about pain, tingling, and numbness in my feet, hands, and limbs. It hurts and mentally draining.
