Thank you for taking the time to address my question from Episode 1. Much appreciated! I do think it was a gradual accumulation of stressors that may have tipped me over the edge. When you feel good you kinda get back on autopilot. Instead of keeping up with your healthy practices and acknowledging and working thru things as they happen.
More around journalling would be helpful. Everyone seems to have a different approach. Also how do we get out of the focus on the outcome? I find being very outcome focused means I am putting pressure on myself - which is unhelpful - but of course I just want this to be resolved.
Fantastic podcast and I've used your techniques to reduce my dizziness by about 95% but I'm interested in any advice on dealing with menopausal symptoms, not sure if I just need to ride it out but when I get those waves of menopausal anxiety it is really difficult to cope and my symptoms increase which can spiral a little and I then worry that I'm relapsing. Thankfully the episodes are getting less but when they come it's so hard!
(I hope this question doesn't offend anyone) those people who had PPPD for many years, are most of them stuck in the same situation&symptoms?? or are they slowly getting better?? it's been a year for me, and I've gotten so much better (with ups and downs) I'm trying to convince myself, if I got better in a year, there is less chance for me to have this for years&years. I was lucky to find you in the early stage. I know it's impossible to predict the future but just want an idea.
I've had it now for 6 years. Only in the last 2 did I find Dr yo and begin healing. I am steadily getting better, lots of ups and downs but when I feel good, the symptoms are at like 0.01/10. Your brain doesn't just decide, well, this is healed enough! If you can get a little better, you can get all the way better ❤️
Doctor how do i prepare myself for MRI and other diagnosis, I'm scared of epley manuvere too, will it increase my symptoms, any resource i can watch to prepare for MRI. kindly reply, my sensations increases when sitting feels like sitting on a floating object, i stopped sitting on chair. Please help me out anything please
If you have BPPV and a good vestibular therapist the epley maneuver will be gross simply because the crystals will be moving within your canals. BUT it is worth it. Depending on how severe your situation you may continue to feel yucky for several hours or even till the next day but then you should notice a good change. If you have really complex BPPV it will be a process of several appointments but it will still start to be better after the first appointment. I had a very severe and complex case but that cleared up and it’s worth going through it. I recommend having someone drive you in case you don’t feel great after and maybe some crackers or water with a little peppermint. If you truly have BPPV the maneuver WILL help you.
Dr. Yo, you dont talk much about tiredness, out of breath. Right now can barely walk for 400 meter. I just took a bath and now I’m lying on the bed resting cos i cant just go straight to dressing up. All my symptoms comes back if i so much as clean th😢house. I really want to know more about this
I love you’re making also a podcast! My question is about fatigue.. i was diagnosed with PPPD 18 months ago, I was completely bedridden and thanks to VRT I am now able to work part time from home. My triggers are the same but my thresholds are higher than before, moving my head or eyes quickly like for example I’m at the computer gives me some dizziness, moving my body, especially my neck and waist like for example doing squats or lifting weights (I can do only a few minutes of those activities, a few days ago I tried to do almost 15 minutes and my head started to spin), be visually overwhelmed like in grocery stores. But now more than dizziness I get extreme exhaustion, like after these activities I have to lie down and often take a nap. Even a few minutes of VRT makes me exhausted and I have to nap. Does someone else have the same? Like not dizziness anymore but immense fatigue after the usual triggers we get with PPD? I’m tired also of pacing.. do you have any suggestions? Thank you!!
Yes, yes, yes to the fatigue! I have had MdDS for 2 years now, and someone had mentioned to me that it was because my body is working way way harder to balance myself and that is why fatigue comes. But I'm beginning to wonder if all of a sudden I've also got chronic fatigue syndrome on top of the MdDS. Is fatigue something in itself or just a product of the dizziness?
I've been having dizziness around the clock, worst when laying down with closed eyes or in the dark, for a year now. Lots of ups and downs. A month ago I unexpectedly lost my mom who was my rock, my compass and best friend. The first 3-4 days or so I was so in shock and disbelief that I virtually had no dizziness symptoms at all and then they slowly crept back in. My brain must have been too busy with other things to notice the dizziness cues. I guess that pretty much proves it's neurocircuit dizziness and not some physical issue.

I do love that you don’t try to sell things and make people spend so much money on things it makes the whole process more believable and doable!

15 months and getting better, my symptoms are more mdds

The MRI was initially scary for me too. If you can, I'd practice mindfulness/somatic tracking.
@@dutchhondarebel Thanks a ton 🙏

Parasympathetic breathing prior and after. You will be safe. Good luck.

I am so sorry that you are going through this loss ❤
How does one recover from permanent dizziness due to a vestibular migraine? with vestibular rehabilitation? or as?
