Is Vertigo ever a chronic condition? How is treated by meds and by natural alternatives? Is it a?

If I write a book it will be Used to Think I had ADD/Bipolar. I think I have had D鈥? Harder I Try D鈥?Worser It gets Syndrome. An Audiologist Associate had the rare integrity and acumen to suggest to me I had vertigo, suggesting that is why I had wide range fluctuations in visual acuity, hearing, and equilibrium.
I have done so miraculously better since the old diagnosis has been shed like a ragged garment and the new one tried on for fit. Vision, hearing and equilibrium still vary with fluctuating levels of fatigue, but have each shifted from worsening trend to resolving trend鈥攅ven with increases in external levels of circumstantial stress stimuli.
The dismal side of my clinical history started in 1994 with concurrent, yet mutually contricated prescriptions by physicians of Prozac and Cylert, the latter being Ritalin鈥檚 鈥渙ther brand鈥? running through such things as Wellbutrin and Depacote; eventually working up to the Hard Stuff, Lithium Carbonate.

Go for it! misdiagnosis can be a huge problem (see anti-psychiatry movement for good review) and I can't see why further knowledge and insight won't help.

Perhaps suggest to the audiologist to publish some work in the field too!!

Good luck!!

Yes Vertigo can be chronic! I have had extreme Vertigo for over 6 years now and its only getting worse. Ive been to Dr. after Dr. trying to get a cure for it or to stop it but there is no cure. I have dizzy spells so bad that for an hour i cant even sit up this will happen 3 or 4 times a day. I dont know how bad it is for you but i can't do anything anymore ever thing i try to do i get sick form being dizzy over it. I am married and for over 3 years I have not even been able to have sex its that bad. I have to wear diapers 24/7 because of it because even if i aint dizzy then i am so week from being dizzy that most of the time i cant make it to a bathroom so i just do it in my diaper. When i say my Vertigo is Extreme i mean its extreme!! And then there are the mental things that go with it like Adjustmend disorder, depression. nervisness, mood disorder, Infantilism, stress disorder, and even psycotoic disorder. All because of Vertigo!! As for me i have no life anymore just dizzyness and diapers not only can vertigo be bad a on persion but it can also dostroy your life as you know it now. like it has mine.............
