Love hearing these stories , so encouraging and helpful especially because there are ups and downs , thank you dr. Yo ❤️
First time here. I found my way here from a commenter in a Facebook ad for a vertigo group.
I obviously have a lot of videos to watch but before I go do that I want to say, Jarred could be telling my story almost verbatim. He's a young high school guy and I'm a bit over 64 but the similarities of stressors and personality type is uncanny despite the huge age difference
I'm excited, and hopeful, as I head on over to catch up on videos and with realistic expectations hope I can stitch together another aspect of my baffling health issues. What began as a child with gastric issues and mild allergies has become reflux/GERD, frequent sinus infections, episodic heavy upper respiratory congestion, fatigue, tinnitus, constant light headedness/dizziness, and the most recent addition of vertigo in February of '22.
I digress. Thank you and I'll see you all around after I catch up.
Gregory, welcome to the club you never wanted to be part of 😂! But yes, you are certainly not alone and I am so glad to be the bearer of good news about all this. Barring medical issues (that I am sure you have ruled out), you can indeed recover from these physical symptoms.
Thank you for sharing this video!!!
You're very welcome, Kirby!
Dr Yo you’ve helped me enormously and I can’t thank you enough! I’m still on my journey and working my way through your free course. I hope to share my story one day. 🇬🇧😊❤️
Thank you for your kind words, Kim! I can't wait to be able to share your story too! ❤
Thank you Yonit...I've been having so many ups and downs it's crazy.. And scary.. I can relate to the stories so well... Woke up in a horrible state this morning but just listening to these stories helps me cope.. And gives me hope.. Please keep them coming.. God bless you
Oh Janice, I am so sorry it's been so bad. I will definitely keep them coming. I have so many more in the pipeline.
How are you ?
Thank you so much for sharing all of this. I had vertigo in January, diagnosed with vestibular neuritis, and now PPPD. Since finding your videos I've really learned so much and am starting to see real progress. I feel like I finally have control, maybe not fully yet, but there's real hope these symptoms will end. These stories are important and really make a difference so thank you all for sharing!
You're so welcome, Tina! Comments like yours are why I will keep sharing these stories. So glad that you are on your healing path!
How are you ?
Thanks for posting this, Dr. Yonit. It’s been so therapeutic for me to hear others’ journeys and to know I can get better. I just ordered the Forward-Facing Freedom book you mentioned in another video and am really looking forward to that. I will most definitely email you at some point and share my story. Thank you SO much for all that you do!
So good to hear this, Branden! I have so many more of these stories to share. I’ll plan another episode in the future- got lots of other helpful stuff I am working on!
How are you ?
@@yendryrojas I’ve been doing exponentially better. It’s been a work in progress, but I’m definitely going in the right direction!
Thanks for the videos, seeing I’m not alone and that is possible to fully recover is very helpful
You are very welcome! You are not alone in this ❤
Sherri- my dizziness started at the exact same time yours did while teaching hybrid middle school Spanish. No one will ever understand how hard it was to plan for and manage a group of students at home and a group of students in the classroom, while trying to put on a happy face under the mask and keep everybody safe from a disease, unless they’ve done it. I cried listening to your story just remembering how traumatic the experience was. Just a note- my dizziness started BEFORE getting Covid or a vaccine
❤️❤️❤️
I feel like Gerald was talking about me I’m so glad to hear you’re getting better
❤❤❤
New follower here. Thank you for your videos and these encouraging stories! In general, do people seem to make a faster and more full recovery when they receive treatment early? I’ve had what I believe is VM and/or PPPD for the past two months and I’m working on treating it now but am also terrified from all the stories of people having these symptoms for years.
I have worked with people who’ve had it for 2 weeks and people who’ve had it for 25+ years. Everyone can get better. What matter more than the length of time are how much insight has into one’s own drivers behind the dizziness, a person’s own sense of agency, any trauma history and the person’s current social support.
Amazing. 👌
❤❤❤
Thanks for these encouraging stories Dr. Yo. Is it possible to fully heal from vestibular migraine or is it basically symptom management? Thank you!
In my view, full recovery. I’d highly recommend checking out some of the books I recommend in the course and resource sheets- they talk very specifically about migraines and how recovery is possible. Dr. Schubiner and Alan Gordon’s books in particular. Does that mean you’ll never have a headache again? No, but it’s normal to have a headache or feel off every once in a while.
Wow! I feel just like Jared does. I'm Still going threw it, doctors are not sure what's going on missed diagnosed with meniere's disease now migraine. I dont know what to do.
I'm sorry you are experiencing this, Terrie. Have you checked out my free course on healing chronic dizziness members.thesteadycoach.com/? All of my techniques and recommendations are condensed into this course and it's all free.

believe I have pppd caused from vm. So I had covid this year symptoms all began. VNG test showed 33percent damage two months later got another one they say they saw nothing which I thought was weird because therapist had always told me the existing damage should always appear just looking for more
I had horrible migraines for two months. Do t get them much anymore. I for sure think I have pppd. Been 7 months total maybe two months with pppd.
Eyes for sure are off feels like they skip in the sun everything is much worse balance. Head pressure. Sway. And just feel off. Boating sensation is gone. Don’t wear a hat or glasses anymore. Laying down ok. I always have that fuzz in the head but noticing it’s fading. Hope these are good songs. Bobble head the worst.
Will get better that I know. Takes time. Everyone is different
Thanks
See my response to your other comment Tim! Glad to have you here.

@@edwingarcia9626 no I did local vestibular therapy for about 10-12 wks and it helped immensely but then I pinched a nerve in my neck and never ended going back.
@@crystalmiller7447 I have severe brain fog and did upper cervical chiropractor once haven't gone again. Trying to go to New York and trying to decide if I should also continue with upper cervical care.
