Balance, Dizziness, Disequilibrium, Oscillopsia, etc.

Posted by ellene @ellene, Feb 19, 2021

I was wondering if we could have a separate thread for those of us with balance issues, disequilibrium, dizziness, oscillopsia, etc. I'm not sure if this would go under hearing loss or brain tumors, as I experience these things with bilateral vestibular schwannomas, which are grouped in brain tumors and hearing loss. I had an outstanding therapist for my disequilibrium/balance/vestibular rehab. He taught me a lot about my issues, their causes and solutions. More than any doctor has ever explained to me. Someone had some excellent information/summation about balance that might be of interest to anyone who experiences these types of issues. I was hoping that it could be repeated under a separate thread. I am going to post this request in both the hearing and brain tumors group, because I don't know where it would belong. I'd really like to have some discussion on this topic. Thanks!

Try to lay down on your back with your legs straight along the wall. Be very close to the wall. Your arms along your body. Keep this position when breathing peacefully for 10 minutes. After you sit down and wait a little time to have your dizziness pass away. Do it every morning. After a week you will feel a difference. Do not forget to breath. Sit down till you feel more comfortable. I hope it will help you. It worked for me. Good luck. Ginette
