Barb Grabner-Kerns I know this is a long shot- but does anybody have information about possible ototoxicity of acetic acid ear drops? I have bilateral vestibular loss most likely due to tobramycin ear drops (2 years ago) and I have lost a lot of hearing in this ear, so may not have much to lose. This ear has a perf also.

Been dizzy for three years now some days good some days bad....some days great but quality of sleep the food you eat and excercise all count towards ie if you play a gme of sports and you dont stress the stifnessw ill effect your balance the next day ....i know this is logical but i am spelling it oit.....I had an inne...r ear infection that cleared up and now my biggest issue is the days when its not working right normallly after flying somewhere drinking too much or eating poorly i get bad dizzys.....all i can say is that if you accept this you can deal with it....but you should always push the boundaries of what you are doing play sport go shopping yes you will feel awful but this will eventually help VRT will only get you going in the right direction....any tips always open to ideas..JHRead More

I have had vertigo for about 12 years. This past year I started getting dizzy in bed laying down and turning over it sucks it takes the only place to get away for awhile and make it a nightmare. I did a stupid thing and went on a cruise to the Bahamas and have set it off can hardly walk still feel like I'm on the boat... would not advise anyone with a vestublar problem to go on a cruise hope it goes away. Sometimes I feel like a fly on the wall screaming for someone to help me but nobody seems to hear me good luck everyone dont let it get you down i know its hard but fight back thanks for hearing me CherylRead More

Hello everyone. My name is Teresa and I am 41 years old. Last week I was diagnosed with Vestibular Neuritis. I live in Eastern Washington and the closest support group is in Seattle, so I am very happy to find VEDA on Facebook. While I realize I could be quite a bit worse off, it is terrifying to think that I won't eve...r get any better than I am right now. The constant vertigo subsumes pretty much everything, as I am sure you all know :-)
Anyways, I just wanted to introduce myself and say hello.Read More

Vertigo Posicional
hoy descubrí este lugar y me ha abierto una luz en el camino, sin embargo la información en mi idioma español es muy vaga, y quería proponer al igual que veo en otra nota, algún grupo de apoyo para los hispanoparlantes que también sufrimos de este desagradable e incapacitante mal.
Aquí les dejo mi inquietud
Maggie LifeStyle Physical Therapy & Balance Center in Chicago is holding a vestibular support group in Chicago on Saturday, November 14th. Dr. Julia Rahn, a clinical psychologist, will be discussing the psychological challenges of living with vestibular disorders. If you are interested in taking part and meeting others with similar disorders, please email me at info@balancechicago.com. Hope to hear from you!

Me gustaría saber si hay un grupo para latinoamericanos. Alguna sección de habla en español. Creo que sería muy bueno abrir una parte de apoyo para las personas de América-
Los organizadores de VEDA, pueden considerar esta posibilidad?
Claire Flaherty Haddad I'm a support group leader in the Boston, MA area. I'm helping to start-up a support group in the Springfield, MA area. It would serve Western MA and the Hartford, CT area. I'm trying to guage the level of interest before approaching a PT or other health professional to host group meetings. If anyone is interested, please email me at clairehaddad@comcast.net.

Hello all. I had canal wall down mastoid surgery in Feburary. It did not go well. The Mastoid and temporal bones were all but eroded from the colestoma. Two surgeries later the nuero surgens had my brain back in place and repaired the CSF leaks. I was told there was damage to my semicircular canals. Its been sev...eral months and I still have balance issues and they are not improving. I don't really have "dizzy spells" I just lose my balace and walk around like I'm drunk. Anyone got any ideas on anything that can help?Read More
