I've been off work for almost a year now with vertigo. At first the doc thought I has labyrinthitis but that was later disproved... It kept going on & it got more serious & the doc then thought it could be a tumour but thankfully the scans were clear.
I'm really confused to not have a diagnosis as apparently, vertigo is caused by something but in this case I have no clue why I've felt like this for so long...
I'm not having any treatment at all now but I'm still desperatley dizzy every day, I keep falling over & I can only look right ahead when I'm walking.
If I try to look around I stumble & fall.
Is there anyone else out there with the same kind of thing going on?
Any answers or comments would be really appreciated & probably pretty intersting.
Just getting sooo sick of it right now....

You should go back to the Doctors for treatment. I work at a GPs and the last lady that staggered in with vertigo was given an injection witihin a few minutes of arriving. Don't sit suffering.

Never heard of anyone being ill for a year with it.
It is something that comes and goes, generally.
Have you tried Stemetil?
Only available on prescription, but regarded as the most effective treatment.
Best of luck with that.

I do not know very much about this but i do know a friend that had the same type of ailment and it as later diagnosed as an ear infection. Maybe!!.

Have you tried being prayed for? I've seen many healings in my church. I will pray for you.
