Vertigo

I just happen to talk to a friend the other day who now has Vertigo. I told her the following.

Years ago my mother had Vertigo and there was no hope so they sent her to Shane’s teaching hospital in Gsinesville. She checked into her room and before she went to sleep, this intern per day or young doctor told my mom to take this pill he had “sinemet”. Evidently they had been doing some research on other uses of this medicine. The next morning my mother got up out of bed and starting walking down the hallway and ran into about six medical staff who were coming to start tests on her. Well needless to say, the pill worked and she was released in a couple days. She too the medicine for at least ten years and eventually got off the medicine. I would suggest contacting them and find out about this. My moms name was Anne Hull and they put it in their records.

There are many different possible causes of vertigo. Anyone suffering from it should see a specialist for a proper diagnosis.

I added a lorazapam to my husband's Remeron yesterday, and he was dizzy all day. It must be that he was "too relaxed," it seems to have caused hypo tension.
