Title: has anyone suffered from vertigo?
Post by: tigerlilly01 on April 15, 2010, 04:33:45 am

My sister is visiting from Florida and she has had a serious problem with vertigo.  She had a CT scan the day before she left and it was clear but she is taking all kinds of medication.  I worry about her.

Might be onset of Parkinson's Disease...........tell her to keep going to the doctor, it might be nothing at all but to keep an eye on it just in case.  I wish her all the best.

I got symptoms several years ago from an ear infection.  The sensation was pretty scary.
