vestibular migraine newby

[Rennixon]

hello. I have been suffering with severe migraine, pressure in head and ears, tinnitus, nausea and dizziness sine July this year. I’ve had bouts of Labyrinthitis in the past but these symptoms have gone after a length of time. This episode along with the tinnitus started after I had covid and gave not abated. I seem to have a good day followed by a severe attack the next. The pressure in my head never goes away!

I’ve been to ENT who believe it could be vestibular migraine but need to do a MRI first. She offered me only something to take the nausea away and will write to my Gp to prescribe.

My question is, has anyone any experience of this. How long can I expect this to continue ( the pressure)?

What supplements/ medication do you take?

Also are there any particular lifestyle changes you made?

I know these forums are a great help and thank you for reading

Hi Rennixon. Wow that sounds awful, poor you. The MRI would be a good idea, have you had it yet? Covid really messes with people...ugh. I get migraines, and occasionally I have bouts of BPPV (benign paroxysmal positional vertigo) but I have not had pressure in my head. I have nausea med too for when the BPPV gets ugly and it definitely helps.
