Vertigo - reminds me of an incident about 3 years ago. Upon returning home

from attending dinner with friends at a restaurant, I got very dizzy. The

dizziness would not stop and was accompanied by vomiting. Of course, the

first thing we thought about was food poisoning. I finally went to bed.

For the next 3 days I slept because upon waking and sitting up, I would

vomit. Finally went to my doctor, who diagnosed it as an inner ear

infection. It is so much like vertigo. An antibiotic was prescribed in a

suppository form (because I couldn't keep anything down). My doctor also

cautioned that this may be a recurring event.

 

Twice since then, I had only inklings of these symptoms. In the meantime, I

made some herbal antibiotic suppositories and put them in the freezer. If

the symptoms return I insert a suppository. It has never taken more than 2

before the episode ends.

 

Here's my antibiotic suppository formula: Infuse in warm olive oil:

Echinacea, goldenseal, rosemary, and garlic. Strain, add some beeswax.

When cool, shape and roll in powdered Slippery Elm bark. Wrap individually

and store in freezer. Sorry, but I don't measure, just use my own judgment.

Kathy:

 

I found peppermint rubbed on the palms and inhaled worked well for me, along

with fresh air, eating fresh carrots and apples, avoiding sugar, and drinking

detox teas.

 

I wish you the best. Vertigo is NOT fun.

My first suggestion on this one is to get a diagnosis--once you know the cause,

figuring out a natural treatment is more

helpful, plus you've had a chance to rule out many of the more dangerous causes

of your problem. Vertigo can be a diagnosis;

it can also be a symptom of something else.

I had a bout of vertigo a while back. The dizziness caused me to be sick on

the toilet. While sitting there I relaxed into the dizziness and came into

contact with my " Efficiency Expert " wherein I was told what I needed to work on

(spiritually/emotionally/mentally). As I did this work and elevated my

consciousness (along with fresh air, peppermint eo, carrots and apples, etc.),

my

vertigo was completely gone in one week's time. This communication while being

sick on the toilet happened about three times during that one week's time.

 

I never did see a doctor. But then what doctor would have told me what inner

work I needed to work on - other than my own " Inner Physician " (what Dr. John

Upledger calls this inner consciousness and with whom he communicates with in

his craniosacral therapy work).

Get it checked out to make sure it is nothing serious I can tell you what

worked for me and my mother-in-law. I had problems with vertigo when I

turned my head a certian way or position changes. I had a rolfing session

done to my neck and that took care of the problem. Read somewhere that

they are doing research on using this mode of treatment with vertigo.

My mother-in-law went to all sorts of doctors including the Mayo Clinic,

she was diagnosed with Meneries(not sure about the spelling)

disease...which is an inner ear disorder. She went to someone who did

cranial sacral therapy and started to improve...she is much better now.

Good luck with everything,

:)Paula

I'm no expert but I would suspect exitotoxins for one thing.

Hi,

The vertigo she is suffering may be because of spondylosis. Visit a fellow who knows acupressure and she will be alright with a day or two. but the treatment should be continued for 15 days for a permenant cure.Laura Ditsch <egyptqueen2005 wrote:

Hey Scott,

 

As is usual with these things, more data is needed here.

 

It could be an Iron deficiency or a Potassium deficiency or Sugar burnout or . . .

 

Need more data amigo.

Gracie, make sure you're not using aspartame

since dizziness is #2 on the FDA list of 92

symptoms. Ginger is used for vertigo. Sometimes

it may be an inner ear problem.

 

Here is something a medical doctor wrote as natural treatments for vertigo:

 

 

" Some of these supplements include

<http://www.raysahelian.com/fishoils.html>fish

oil capsules to increase omega-3 intake, reduce

inflammation, improve circulation, and reduce

blood pressure,

<http://www.raysahelian.com/ginkgo.html>ginkgo

biloba to improve microcirculation and blood

flow, and

<http://www.raysahelian.com/vinpocetine.html>vinpocetine

(a periwinkle extract that improves circulation

to the brain).

<http://www.raysahelian.com/ginger.html>Ginger is

actually a very healthy herb and the use of

ginger, either added as a spice to your food, or

taken as a supplement, would likely provide many

health benefits. If you plan to take ginkgo, use

a low dose of 40 or 60 mg a day to start.

Vinpocetine at 2 or 3 mg a day is a good starting

dose, you may initially need to take half of a 5

mg pill. Make sure your doctor approves any of

the supplements that you plan to take since

certain herbs can interact with medicines. Do not

take all these supplements at the same time. Give

each one a week to learn how it makes you feel.

Once you know the effects on your body of each

one separately, you may combined them in low doses. "

Vertigo is a condition where a person’s sense of balance erroneously indicates that their surroundings are in a state of constant movement or rotation. This leads to difficulty in maintaining balance while in any position and resultant nausea and weakness.

 

Causes

The causes of vertigo are frequently unknown. However, vertigo is regularly related to side effects of prescription, over-the-counter, or recreational drugs. Overuse of some herbs and nutrients may also be the cause. Suspect among these are CDP choline, choline, black cohosh, ephedra, and skullcap. Physiologic causes of vertigo may be: head trauma, inner ear infection, low blood pressure, Meniere’s disease, PMS,

MS, or clogged carotid arteries that supply blood to the brain. In positional vertigo the Epley Maneuver may be applied by a trained practitioner to reposition or remove the crystals in the ear that convey the erroneous message of movement. After this a soft surgical collar should be worn and the head be kept vertically positioned for over 24 hours while all movement that would cause a jarring of the head is miinimized. Brandt-Daroff exercise may also be useful. A food additive, aspartame (NutraSweet), should be avoided by all since it converts to alcohol and formaldehyde; both brain toxins. Hair mineral analysis may be used to determine presence of possible neurotoxic minerals in the brain (especially mercury, arsenic, and lead).

 

Treatments

EDTA chelation can remove toxic metals from the brain. EDTA therapy can be done via intravenous drip, rectal suppository, or oral capsules.

Hair tissue analysis (HTA) can be used to determine the presence of toxic metals on deficiencies in essential minerals such as iron, magnesium, or manganese. HTA also detects imbalances in critical mineral ratios without invasive testing, and at low cost.

Hydergine, a “smart” drug can alleviate vertigo, but it requires close medical supervision. Other substances that qualify as smart drugs are CDP-choline, piracetam, and vinpocetine. High doses of piracetam (to 5mg per day) or vinpocetine (to 40mg per day) can be used for short periods to determine effectiveness. As a result is noticed, the dose can be gradually decreased until a minimum effective maintenance dose is determined. CDP-choline, vinpocetine, and piracetam are safe for long-term use, and can be

obtained at health food stores, and some drug stores.

In vertigo, a multivitamin and/or B-complex supplement should be used 2 to 4 times per day. Additional sublingual methylcoblamin, or dibencozide (forms of vitamin B12) can be used at up to 5,000 mcg per day. If blood MCV is above 90, B12 shots should be tried. Zinc and magnesium may provide some relief. Bromelain, ginger, or digestive enzymes with meals help with nausea resulting from

vertigo. Gingko, lemon balm, and schizandra have provided relief.

Canalith repositioning and vestibular rehabilitation is an outpatient medical system where fluids and debris are removed from the ear canals. The head, and ear canals and crystals, are then manipulated to reposition the crystals to restore the sense of balance.

Brandt-Daroff exercise: While sitting on couch, lean quickly to one side and hold for 30 sec. Return to vertical then lean quickly to other side and hold 30 sec. Repeat up to20 times.

Epley maneuver: Trained practitioner will turn your head 45 degrees to "bad" side while you sit. Then he will lean you back. Returning to start, he will then repeat on opposite side. Finally he will lean you forward approximately 30 degrees.

Jane- would you elaborate about how ginger cured your vertigo?

 

I've fought it for years. I know first hand that chronic and/or subclinical

sinus infection can cause it. At times I've had relief from MSM and oral

ingestion of DMSO but lately something caused an uptick in mine that is

slowly, very slowly, getting better. It was not debilitatingthis time, just

agravating, just a bit of swirly that was all.

 

I am a roofing contractor and have been trapped 30' up with severe total

head spinning vertigo. Two guys had to lead me to a ladder, hold me while I

got on it, then I had to wait at the top until my head stopped spinning.

Good thing I'm not afraid of heights.

 

Red wine will aggravate vertigo. If one has vertigo, drink NO red wine.

Ragweed allergy can cause it and maybe that's what's up with me now, it's

ragweed time here.

I ate 1kg of glace ginger which I happened to have in my pantry - thats 2lbs

over a 12 hour day - and it did not return for 5 years at all - then very

mildly when I did oil pulling - I consider this type of vertigo to possibly

be an inner ear infection ....... but my rationale behind my ginger theory

was that if ginger cures travel sickness - which feels very similar to

straight vertigo - then it should cure vertigo - and for me it did

The Epley manoeuvre increased my vertigo and at another time produced

vertigo symptoms when I wasn't suffering from vertigo at the time - but I

have seen it resolve patients' vertigo quite successfully
