Links Between Medication And Vertigo

Written on November 22nd, 2009 by Christian Goodmanno shouts

I remember the floor and everything around me was spinning and it was only me who was feeling like this. I ended up lying on the floor on my stomach hoping that everything else became still around me.

A vertigo patient shared her experience on how it felt when she suffered from the spells of attack. She was having these attacks for a couple of months.

This problem was diagnosed as vertigo. Those suffering from it feel that other person or objects around them are in a moving state. It is more or less like dizziness.

Doctors term it as a symptom rather than a disease. Problems in the structure of ears lead to this problem.

Benign paroxysmal positional vertigo is the most common one experienced. This causes nausea, impaired cognitive abilities, perspiration, vomiting, hearing loss, and is experienced without warning.

The other type of peripheral disorder is Mires syndrome. In this rare disorder a person can become total deaf or nearly deaf. The symptoms are same to the other common peripheral disorder; the only difference is that the patient may have a “full” feeling in his or her ear at the onset of the problem.

With the course of hours or day vertigo symptoms may increase or decrease. Best is to lie down when you are feeling the symptoms to gain a relief.

This client of mine sought medical treatment for these symptoms. Sad part is that without curing vertigo, some undesirable side effects developed.

A casual remark from the nurse checking her regular blood pressure set my client thinking. The nurse mentioned that the medication she was using for her high blood pressure is linked with the side effects of vertigo. She then realized that the vertigo started after she had started the medication to control her blood pressure.

She was aghast when this came to her notice. The doctor that had prescribed her the medications for high blood pressure never bothered to tell her about this side effect. Nor did the doctor who was treating her for vertigo.

Temporary and chronic vertigo can result from number of drugs obtained as prescribed drugs or those that are sold over the counter. These drugs include common ones like those used to treat for flu and colds, some antibiotics and anticonvulsants.

This case may force you to think differently about the doctors but the fact remains that medication for hypertension, which is a life threatening disease, is seen as the best course available.

This patient joined my program as she was in need of both high blood pressure and vertigo treatments. Under my program she got a great relief from both the problems. She even discontinued her medication and is now symptom free. My program is here for you to get out of your vertigo and dizziness problems. EIN: EL331005
