Thank you for sharing, I've been in treatment for vestibular migraine disorder and vertigo for the last 5 years, it's extremely tough

Man, I’ve had this for 6 weeks. Been to the ER twice. No medications helped. I’ve been in a very dark place. I’ve been a long time meditator but it feels like my mind is disconnected. The feeling is truly inexplainable. It has helped so much to know I’m not alone. Thankyou

And Your Oscillopsia now is resolved?

Thank You Sean for the video which giving us hope! This is a most difficult challenge for my entire life. It came out of no where and I was diagnosed labyrinthitis . Dizziness and Imbalance and ear inflammation have been haunting me for 2 months. Which felt like a two years for me. I started feeling losing hope and got anxiety.

Hello, my name is Pablo and I suffer from this since I was 15 years old. I’m currently 35 and I don’t know what else to do a long time ago I was diagnosed with bestibular migraine and from there I never had stability again. Currently I’m going through a lot of dizziness and all the things you already know and I can’t do it anymore. There are times that I don’t want to live anymore but I look at my children and I can’t stand it anymore. I really need help

Thanks for sharing I’ve been dealing with dizziness since last October .

Did you ever get an MRI on your inner ear canal? I got one, and they found a small benign tumor that was pressing on the vestibular nerve, and it was the pressure that caused the imbalance. I had the tumor irradiated to shrink it and relieve the pressure.

I’m literally dealing with this now! Came out of no where. I was diagnosed with Vestibular Neuronitis and now almost a year later been diagnosed with Vestibular migraines because I’ve had a few episodes

I had a stroke, and that is what is stopping me

Thank you for this Video. It gives me hope. I‘m 32 and have it since 5 months. Thankfully, It gets better week by week.

Do you think key words for vestibular and dizziness have spiked since March 2020 versus before. We have at least 20 years of Google Searches and even AOL/Yahoo/Netscape to discover if this is a trend related to Covid 19. We are 5 years later, and I have heard the long covid symptoms are about 200 symptoms. I'm not joking it is 200 symptoms. However....I did get my first dizziness traumatic time in 2018 but i was able to drive and work normally. I have not worked in 2 months. It came out of nowheere, though I was taking new medication which I stopped within 4 days and that was February. So it is hard to pin down. Maybe a Physical and general labs are recommended for this condition and any unusual new condition especially after age 40.

Hi. I'm not sure if you'll see this comment, but if you can write something encouraging, I'd be really grateful. I've had unilateral vestibular hypofunction for 2 months. I do the exercises every day, and I've bought a balance ball too. There's a 24% decrease in one ear (vestibular nerve), and they don't know the exact cause. So far, my situation hasn't improved much, and I'm under a lot of stress because of it, struggling with university as well. I'm 22 years old. I experience oscillopsia, mild nystagmus, fatigue, and dizziness when I move my head, along with brain fog. It's really hard to stay persistent, and I don't know when I'll feel better. They haven't given me any medication. Your videos help me a lot, but right now, I feel really bad.

any tips with nystagmus? Like Vision Exercises?

I am convincec thatblong covidvid is the fault for a lot of the vestibular problem 5:08

I had stroke at 60 my fault i did not take care of self,eyes and ear is gone to right no one to ended care of ended up in nursing home for rehab been here with crazy people because insurace purpose need good good doctor have not seen one yet 9:34 nerlogist

Anyone else have phantom smells?

Do you have an instagram id? if you have please suggest us. It will help us too get rid out of these. .

Hi Sean. Did you ever decompensate since your recovery?

I am aged 54 Years. Thanks for sharing it dear. It makes me confident to overcome the Vestibular Neuritis.

Its interesting I do my vor excercises outside and found wearing polarised glasses gave me more stable vision,dont know why....I'm 3yrs in,mine was a central vistibular problem, and have found the balancing with closed eyes on foam block very helpful...I feel like in another year I might be as good as I get,was wondering if you feel back to normal by now ?

Think you are so right,getting a "specialist" to categorise, or locate the exact condition, doesn't really help, working on the symptoms does.

Awesome, helpful video,thankyou

I certainly can relate to your VN symptoms. My problems started about three years ago with vertigo. I had to cancel my entire vacation plans bc I couldn’t walk straight and had to sit down for fear of falling. The thing is I didn’t get sick with any virus beforehand. Did you experience dizziness as you woke up in the morning. It feels like you’re spinning. I feel pressure on the side that’s most affected and have loss of hearing. Sometimes this condition makes me depressed but I’m still hopeful that I will recover. I will be getting an MRI to rule out anything serious.

Thanks to everyone for referring Dr Liam ogbebor herbal remedies youtube channel to me, just like you guys said, his herbal ear drop treatment for tinnitus and dizziness which he shipped to me here in the USA 🇺🇸, has helped me get rid of my tinnitus. Thanks guys.🇺🇸🇺🇸

Thank you so much. Hope you g e t welll. I live with same difficulties

You des c ribe my issue exactly

I am most grateful I came across dr Liam ogbebor herbal centre on CZcams ,his treatment has helped me and a lot of other people, all my symptoms of Ménière’s disease including the constant ringing sounds in my ears(tinnitus ) are all gone, all thanks to his treatment ❤😊😊😅🎉

Hello to Sean or anyone reading this post. To start, after watching this video I had every single symptom (like literally every single one, my symptoms even started in April) I even did the same type of recovery the same way. Iv had this issue for almost two years now but after the last 5 months I totally recovered to about 90%. What made me recover so quickly is I stopped trying to fix the vestibular systems, but rather try and find what is causing it. What I am about to say I really urge everyone to look into because I truly believe many people who suffer from these issues have this problem I am about to discuss. What I found out was causing my issues was CIRS (chronic inflammatory response syndrome) you get this when your body cannot detox toxins from your body. Your body is in a constant state of inflammation and is very hard to diagnose on a MRI. For me, I learned I was living in a moldy house for a year before my symptoms ever started. Sadly no amount of therapy can fix this, but rather it is a bandaid, the only way to fix this issue is to detox your body which can take months or a year or two. The crazy thing about CIRS is once you have your first bad flare up anything and everything will hurt you. Your body is taking in things from the environment and the foods you eat as threats. That is why some people cannot eat the foods they were able to before their issues started. CIRS can see gluten and sugar as threats and immediately flare up. These dizzy episodes of being off balance and vertigo are done by the brain being swollen and not getting good nutrition because the blood brain barrier is so thick. Plus CIRS can give you issues of tmj which many people never notice because their jaw doesn’t click when they open. But CIRS inflames all ligaments and muscles in the body. So there is a good chance your jaw joint is inflamed and pushing on the ear causing dizziness. When this happens it makes it hard for the eyes to work since the jaw,neck,ears and eyes are all connected. That is why people have eye issues such as converging issues and an unstable gaze. Sorry for the long post, but I believe this is something everyone should at least try and look into. CIRS is just now being talked about in terms of national coverage!

Giving up isn't the best option, i never give up on myself and it helped me find Dr Madida Sam on CZcams whom with his natural treatments cured my Parkinson Disease and meniere disease...

Thank you for sharing. I had a concussion last year and my symptoms and struggles are very similar. Wishing you a speedy recovery from Vancouver.

Had it for almost 4-5 month, still struggle a little. Archupuncture and exercises helped a lot

Sounds like you could have picked up a bug from where you worked. it took a few days to attack your system. Have you thought about trying to use HCQ for a few days since it is viral related? God bless you.

I never knew about this, maybe this is what I have, my doctor says I have bppv, my biggest thing is I get dizzy so much, and the more I walk the worst I feel. I was at the point where my anxiety got so bad I couldn’t leave the house, sometimes I feel like I’m disconnected from reality if that makes any sense, I sometimes get this pressure feeling in my head, and I’ve had test done on my ears and they have came back fine but to me my ears don’t feel right. I’m just tired of being miserable I can barely make it through a work day.

I have Menieres Disease and you will benefit from going to a physical therapist who specializes in vestibular disorders. What you are doing is good but they will help you understand more about your condition and give you more exercises to help you. Vestibular rehab is good but you are going to need someone who specializes in this.

Pls help me am suffering vestibular disorder my inner ear got week so often vertigo and imbalance and leading very hard lifestyle and always at home can’t walk almost I reach out all doctors and they keep on send me eply maneuver but not helping much

I've now just passed the 2 year mark. Still have the floating when I walk, but my short term memory is toast. Long term is going as well. My Chiropractic Neurologist assures me it's from the Neuritis and not some type of dementia. Now starting to get panic attacks. Time to just close my eyes.

Thank you so much for sharing your experience, Sean! It felt like you were telling my story, not yours! One of the most difficult parts of having a vestibular disorder is that no one understands it. Like you said- one looks fine! Only someone who has gone through it can understand the kind of darkness it can envelope you in! I could not help weeping while listening to you. You are the first person I have heard that is talking about symptoms that I have also suffered from, and all the blood tests and MRIs and what not, came out to be just fine! Being a married woman in India, it is so difficult to lead my life in a deeply patriarchal society that treats my health issues as "all in the head" and not real. There is no compassion at a societal level. I truly appreciate the recovery process that you have shared with us. If I may add to it, meditation helps, as does breathing techniques used in what is known as "Pranayama" in Yoga, with the two specific ones being 'Bhramari' and 'Anulom Vilom'. Once again, big thank you. Thanks also for suggesting online support groups for vestibular disorders. I wish you a full recovery. ❤

Thank you so much for this. Your video has helped me so much. The fear can feel overwhelming. But your shared experience has shone some light on a very dark day 💛

I have light sensitivity too. But I was wondering if you experienced this symptom where when someone points there finger or maybe points a finger and it makes your eyes hurt. I didn’t know if this was a symptom from the balance issue.

I’m so glad I came across your video. I have very similar symptoms. I’ve been out of work for a month now and the symptoms came after being sick with bronchitis and a sinus infection. I went to my ENT and he is sending me to physical therapy and a neurologist. Hope you have a complete recovery from this. I’m hanging in there.

My issue is my episodes last a day or two usually and mines related to my neck I believe as I have a reversed curve neck. Whenever I get to see a doctor, most of the symbols have either gone, or they don’t show physically like yours with nystagmus etc. it’s such a struggle to explain the floor is bouncing and my body feels like it has a constant loud heartbeat feeling throughout my whole body, whether I’m relaxed, trying to sleep trying to walk whatever I feel that. They originally said it was viral meningitis, it would never likely happen again, then it did, slightly changing symptoms each time, this last episode has stuck with me so far for weeks. Legs are weak and I feel drunk.

Thank you so much for this video! I've had all these issues for 5 weeks now. My neurologist said it wasn't vestibular neuritis, just bppv, but I disagree. I have such similar issues with my eyes, balance and weird sensations of not feeling my legs. I'm saving this video and I'll be trying the exercises you mentioned. God bless you.

Everything he described, the gradual build up, the flare up of it again, delayed visual vertigo, anxiety, photo sensitivity, eyes jumping, patterns setting off a fun house effect. I experienced the same! When I ended up in the ER my blood pressure and heart rate wouldn't go down. It delayed my diagnosis by a month to make sure it wasn't cardiac related. I broke down in front of my manager too! Luckily it's a desk position and we were doing almost nothing in the winter season. It's it took almost 3 months to see an almost useless ENT to say I have a vestibular weakness on my left side. I could have told anyone that. My left leg feels short (but not as short a before, it's getting better). Yeah, they never even told me it might be vestibular neuritis like they were afraid to admit it since it started so long ago. They refered me to vestibular therapy. I'm happy to say I have been improving in the last few weeks. It was severe but I appear to be improving on a faster track. Everything got instantly better when I was finally able to sleep through the night again without waking up dizzy and terrified. I take melatonin now to help stay asleep. Got on a heart health meal plan delivered to my house. Stopped caffiene. Realise now that my anxiety is down that caffiene doesn't affect it but alcohol does. Busy stores and certain lights still bother it. Did my eye exercises the first time yesterday. I had my first therapy session two day ago. It's helped my computer use already. Here's the weird part. Early on sitting something that moves like a car that judders or a rocking chair eased my symptoms. I can't feel the spinning/swaying motion. Driving actually helps. Being outside helps. I recorded a video of this hallway at work the has a ramp and winds around that has been bothering me. I'm going to show my therapisy to dial in the therapy.

It should have said I am still struggling with my condition. I find it hard to think I will get over this.

Thanks very encouraging, I am still undertaking my condition.John in South West Wales UK.

I went through period of time in my life around 10 years ago that i was hit with vertigo and vomiting. It hit me finishing my rounds as a nurse. I had to hold side rails to get out doors. I had to keep head at steering wheel height to keep from throwing up. Ended up in hospital and to stop but not completely fix the problem. The ephley maneuver done at a e,n,t. Office was the procedure that made life bearable. Routine antivert 25 mg. Tabs one tab, 3 times daily. Tinnitus has never left but has become my body prediction center. For if get a fever the noise will get louder until fever or illness is over. I had the ephley procedure done 3 times in past ten years and have appointment at a new e.n.t. appointment in 6 weeks for recent episode. Im being treated for stomach ulcers and gastrtis that has inflammation in stomach and bowels.. the loud ear roaring and vertigo and depth perception let me know i had something wrong. Im back to taking 2 antivert tablets in the mornings to survive till my appt. 29th jan, 2024. I walk 3 miles ever other day out side. I learn not to look from side to side and keep my eyes focused straight ahead. I use my side vision crossing roads. i can avoid walking like a drunk person by not turning head left or right. Depths preconception has been a constant problem for past ten years. It is amazing i never hit a car in the back yet. Anyone riding with me in car about put there foot through floor trying to stop car for me. If i have a glass on end table by my chair often i knock it over because my depth perception is off trying to pick it up. Life never same sense first episode of vertigo. I'm 67 and retired now, i can't imagine being young as you are to have to deal with this.

How are you doing now? Would you say you still struggle with issue or are fully back to the way you were before?

Anyone else suffering with constant ear ringing and dizziness. ? I had all these symptoms until I came across Dr Liam ogbebor herbal centre CZcams channel , his treatment has helped me and a lot of other people suffering with these symptoms, all my symptoms are gone and my full health has been restored, thank you dr Liam ogbebor😊❤

In another video you mentioned using a benzodiazepine. Which one was it?
