Intermittent dizziness?

It’s nice to find a clan of fellow dizziness sufferers.
Here is my meclizine report. Yesterday morning I took it before any signs of dizziness. I did fine. No dizziness developed, no groggy feeling.
However … I have dry mouth and eyes, part of the autonomic portion of my SFN. I use Restasis eye drops, and take pilocarpine 5 mg prn, usually 3 times/day. Yesterday I had not taken my pilocarpine. Within 15 minutes of the meclizine, my mouth was completely parched. I was trying to make a phone call, and my tongue felt like a piece of wood! I even bit my tongue. I had already had at least 24 oz/water, so not related to thirst. It just dried up that already dry mouth.
Today I will take the pilocarpine first, and have my dry mouth spray on hand.
There are other “ warnings” on the meclizine label, but I’m just really excited about this possible solution. I can go to 9 am church without staggering to my pew!
