Positional Vertigo

[bad.det]

I was diagnosed with positional vertigo over 4 years ago and i was prescribed to take Serc 8mg for a week. in 2 days wala na yung Vertigo ko normal na ulit.
But just a month ago, biglang bumalik with a vengeance! Nagising ako from siesta, tumayo para mag CR then balik ulit sa higaan. Nung nagyaya na yung baby ko bumaba, ayun na bigla na kong nahilo as in bumagsak ako. From 3pm hanggang kinabukasan hindi ako makakilos. Sobrang hirap para saken kasi I work from home, plus i have a 2 year old baby boy na breastfed pa.
Nag pa check up ako and i was prescribed again to take Serc i-take ko daw hanggat may dizzy spells pa. But tinigil ko din after a week kasi ayoko masyado mag take ng meds kasi nga i am still breastfeeding.

Ngayon may dizzy spells padin ako, pero i learned to control my movements na. BAWAL YUMUKO MGA SIS! lahat ng gagawin ko naka chin up ako. Pag babangon naman ako kelangan dahan dahan kong ihiga yung ulo ko.

Patiently waiting nalang ako sa ngayon kung kelan sya mawawala. Nakakapagod na kasi. Namimiss ko na makipaglaro sa baby ko.

Kayo may tips ba kayo? Natural alternative? I heard okay daw ginkgo biloba. True ba?

Sis may magaling na mga treatment si Dr Winnie Lim Khoo nasa Cardinal Santos Med Center at Manila Doctors po siya.  So doc winnie po ay headache specialist neurologist.  Meron din siyang non medical treatment approach.

Thanks sis! Sa ngayon nawala na yung Vertigo ko. Tumagal sya ng around 50 days. Nag try ako ng Epley Maneuver sa youtube. Surprisingly nawala na sya kinabukasan.

[simang]

^effective ang Epley sa positional vertigo.

[omneecka]

i also have vertigo and left side yung na-diagnose sa akin, mga 10 years na rin ako meron nito. from 8mg to 16mg serc na ang iniinom ko but only if feeling ko aatake na vertigo til gumaling lang ako umiinom ng serc. longest duration na meron ako nito is 5 days or 1 week yata. now, after 10 years na may on and off vertigo ako, feeling ko normal na sa akin yung feeling na lumilindol, minsan nga lumindol pala talaga and akala ko lang vertigo. yung exercise for vertigo na nasa youtube is effective naman for me kaso lang nasusuka ako sa hilo kayo di ko na lang ginagawa.

[bad.det]

Sis unang atake ko 3 days lang inabot. Itong pangalawa yung grabe almost 2 months. Hindi ko kinaya yung hilo ko after nung Epley pero worth it naman kasi nawala din.
Paano ko ba malalaman na aatake na vertigo ko? I have tinnitus kasi so normal na saken yung ringing ng ears.

[omneecka]

^yung sakin sis is pag almost everyday akong puyat, sure ng aatake vertigo ko anytime pag ganyan. Then pag may slight feeling na ng hilo and medyo nasusuka, ayan na, iinuman ko na agad ng serc para di magtuloy sa vertigo and effective naman. 😊😊

Hi bad.det, baka gusto mong i-try ang mga natural remedies na to. Nakita ko sa isang forum din. https://diskusyon24.online/mayroon-ba-kayong-vertigo 
I hope you recover soon.

Meron din ako nito. Wala nang effect sakin ang Serc kaya hindi na ako nagttake nun. Nakapag pa check up na ko a few times before sa ENT pero hanggang Serc lang ang nabibigay nila. Yung most recent vertigo attack ko, sobrang hilong hilo ako pero wala akong tinake. What I did is I followed the steps of Epley maneuver. You can check youtube para sa steps, madali lang sya pero take note na mahihilo ka ng onti while ginagawa mo sya. Nawala yung hilo ko right after ko syang ginawa, as in immediately, from being bedridden diretso agad sa gala after ko syang gawin.

May very effective home exercise ang neurologist ko po sa akin. Try po ninyo puntahan si Doctor Winnie Lim Khoo sa Cardinal Santos Medical Center (room 204) or Manila Doctors Hospital (room 1009).  Doc winnie is the best neurologist talaga specilization nya ay headache. sa europe pa siyta nag training .  Highly recommended talaga sis!

Hello Sis, Now ko lang nabalikan itong thread. After nung attack ko hindi na nawala talaga yung hilo ko pag nakayuko.

How much check up sakanya? Puntahan ko nga sya

[TomHansen]

Baka gusto mong subukan ito sis, worked for me last na sinubukan ko.. Gaya mo nakajatrigger din sakin dati kapag nakayuko or may pinapanuod akong na may vertical movement camera. Also bantayan mo rin position or side mo kapag natutulog tingin ko may factor din kasi yun.

i had this since 2002... back then hirap mga doc to diagnose kung ano meron ako... serc, sibelium, kung ano ano pinatry sakin na med pero di nawawala yung dizzy feeling... they even had to MRI my brain to check pero ok naman... several years later i had to work in the US and i made it a point to find the best doctor for this since it was really debilitating... there i found Dr Hain whom they call dizzy doctor... sabi nya back then... i just really need to exercise my head, Epley Manuever pinagawa sakin plus several sessions of head positioning sa clinic nya ... prior to meeting him, i had almost accepted that i?d live an abnormal life forever... but those head exercises really helped... its been more than 12yrs  since the last time i had a major dizzy spell... his advise was it might really come back again after a few years and when it does, just exercise again... please know that you will get dizzy during exercise...

i also know my bad side which is my left ear... i know for sure if i sleep on my left side, i will get dizzy as soon as i wake up... so i try to avoid my bad side as much as possible... my doc?s goal then for me was to be able to sleep on both my left and right side... but the dizzying was traumatic so i?ve just tried to avoid lying on my bad side...  life has been back to normal since then...

im not sure if we have docs in the phils that can do the head exercise for you first if you are scared to do at home... but it does really help, my diagnosis then was BPPV

[sturmfrei]

We have the same case! BPPV din pero hindi naman ako hilo on my right side all the time. May time lang talaga na pag gising ko e hilo na ako. Nung last time na malala yung vertigo attack about 2 years ago to the point na I can't walk, ginawa ko yung Epley maneuver (copied from YT) and nawala sya talaga immediately. Pero according sa doctor dun sa YT, pag may current vertigo lang daw yun ginagawa. Pinagawa ba sayo yung Epley even if you're not experiencing vertigo during that moment?
