Looking for some advice. Had hearing loss and vertigo for 18 months, diagnosed 4 weeks ago as MD. On Betahistine for 2 weeks. I have episodes on average every 5 days, but have not had an event since starting the meds. Events can be severe (can't walk, can't even crawl) or milder to varying degrees. No Tinnitus no migraine some nausea no vomiting. Knocks me out for a whole day sometimes more. Get up to 30 minutes warning, ear feels full and head feels full, plus some light-headedness. Am generally more tired. I am retired and could not imagine being able to hold down a job with this. I've cut out salt, lowered caffeine and barely drink any alcohol. Don't smoke and am considered fit for my age (67). Any advice orr pointers would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
