    Great podcast. I am a physical therapist and passionate about treating headache, patients and vestibular patients. I normally work with neurologists and ENT’s to collaborate with this type of caseload. We have seen successful outcomes. Thanks again for the informative podcast.

    I wish mine were extremely treatable. Going through many treatments to find a solution for my severe daily chronic intractable vestibular migraine. I have lost my independence. But I’m not giving up and I keep hoping that the next treatment will be the one.
    Thank you for these videos. They certainly make me feel validated. There aren’t many people who understand my condition.

      I can relate to you I’ve been suffering for at least 15 years tried all kinds of medication’s would get a little bit better and then it would return. I have daily chronic vestibular Migraines it just seems like nothing will ever get rid of them. I have tried almost every medication and alternative treatment.
      I’m not able to drive and every day is a struggle. I just wish there was more that could be done to find a solution to this problem.

      @@kimg2022 I understand. Sometimes I have a few “better” days in a row and I start thinking I’m all better, then I will have several bad days in a row. I just got my first round of Botox for migraine a week ago and it triggered a severe attack that lasted for 3 days. The attack pain has calmed down, but seems like nothing helps the vertigo. Time will tell if the Botox is working. The neurologist said that usually there isn’t much improvement after the first round. I also went to a spine orthopedic to have my neck evaluated. I took the vestibular PT for a while, and the therapist urged me to get my neck checked because she thinks some or all of the problems could be mechanical. So, I got an x-ray and an MRI and they both show degenerative disease. I haven’t spoken with the surgeons office since the MRI results available. But, at the initial visit and after just the x-rays, I asked if the neck problems could be causing the migraines, etc. And they said that it wouldn’t be a cause, but it could be triggering attacks. My neurologist basically said the same thing.

    Get rid of carbohydrates especially wheat and all sugar including fructose and you'll most likely get rid of all migraines, headaches.
