yes i do

Hey! No compensatory no, I’d say years on I still do sweat, sometimes more than other times but there is still deffo a reduction compared to before. I’d say the reduction has been around 60% or so, but within the first year it was more like 80%

Hey David! Thanks for purchasing I’m glad it’s been useful for you :) I do mention this in my recovery video but will also type here: it took me a total of 8 months to feel completely ‘normal again’, but this would’ve likely been a slightly speedier process with some of the learnings I’ve mentioned in my guide e.g. mindset, breathing, diet etc (and for others that have commented it’s been a couple months for them). At the time recovery didn’t feel linear because I didn’t even realise I was recovering at the time, I was just so focused on the fact that I still felt dizzy that I hadn’t realised the reduction in severity - it was actually my mum and bf at the time who noticed I was mentioning feeling dizzy less and less and then I was like, oh wait yeah! When I had dizziness I used to suffer with ‘flare ups’ where for some reason 1 week a month my symptoms would sky rocket and I’d struggle to even walk, this was the first thing to stop occurring about 1-2 months into the exercises - and it then turned to more of a constant lower level dizziness. My head pressure symptom and nausea went pretty early on, but my dizziness was the most stubborn symptom to leave (although it was constantly reducing in severity, especially over months 5 onwards). I hope that’s helpful and if you want even more in depth drop me a message at @styledbymegx on insta and I’ll voice note you!!

@@EMJAYstyles Thanks so much for the detailed response `! Mine have also gone down in severity, but I do notice that stress makes it worse and can end me into a episode for a few days at a time. Hoping that it'll continue to decrease.

I’m sorry to hear that! If it’s happening frequently I doubt it’s something you’d be imagining, I hope you get your answers💘💘

My legs weren't physically wobbling but did feel generally unstable/like they couldn't support me - I'd over focus on them when walking! Yes I did have any MRI and it came back normal

@@EMJAYstylesomg same! My legs seem like they will collapse as they can’t support my weight! So unstable but I’ve never fallen/lost my balance. Just so scary. Thanks for replying.

Sorry to hear that, you will get through it!!

Glad to hear you've not had pain! The swelling should go down, just try and gently massage the area once it's deflated to ensure it's getting adequate blood flow!

@@EMJAYstyles thanks! Did you get tight banding at all in your arms afterwards when you raised them? I had to research a bit to understand what was happening, but sounds like it happens more often in thinner patients

PPPD is definitely an illness of exclusion. Everything should be ruled out before this diagnosis including an MRI scan

A lot of people have mentioned similar symptoms from the covid jabs! My dizziness came on way before Covid so I know that wasn’t the case for me, and I’m fully healed now - but yes I do believe the covid jab as a newer thing can cause random side effects in people as it’s not that researched!

Sorry to hear that :( you will get through it!

Yes I had this, I’d be so focused on my legs and had an overwhelming feeling that they might just decide to stop supporting me/ I’d fall

@@EMJAYstylesomg I feel this way now! I had an ear infection and I started panicking I had a brain tumour which seriously made my symptoms far, far worse. I couldn’t believe how many symptoms my mind made up convincing myself I was dying of a brain tumour! I had many tests/scans but they have all come back normal thank God! I have been diagnosed with PPPD and started taking anti depressants and will try VRT

Yep! Both physical and mental fatigue :(

Sorry to hear that and glad it’s given you some answers!

I’ve not taken SSRI’s myself so can’t comment, but I know a lot of other people have to help manage symptoms, and it’s been quite mixed in reviews. For some it’s been a really effective solution short-term, and for others it’s not really had an impact on symptoms. For you it may help in controlling your symptom-associated anxiety making each day more manageable, but generally I recommend committing to Vestibular Rehabilitation therapy to tackle the symptoms head on/and get them gone for good even if it takes time!

Wow, what a similar starting story! It's crazy that we'd never forsee something so minor having such a long term effect - I hope you recover soon!

I’m so sorry to hear that, it must be horrible to see your daughter going through so many scary symptoms- please reassure her that she’s not alone, there are thousands of people going through the same things daily and this comments section is proof of that! Keeping her in my thoughts, there is hope and I am proof of it. I hope you can find the answers she needs, you’re doing amazing continuing to research into this, she’s lucky to have you as a parent ❤️

You got this!!💜💜

I would say it has deffo reduced my sweating from what it used to be, but I am also definitely not sweat free/still need to change tops daily. I'd say the reduction now is around 60% but can fluctuate (e.g. I sweat a bit more sometimes nearer menstruation)

@@EMJAYstyleshey! hows ur odor now? thank you❤

I didn't personally no! This may be a sign of ear infection or ear crystals

I'm symptom free and very grateful to have my quality of life back💜

You're most definitely not alone!! xxx

@@EMJAYstyles may God bless you🙏🏼

I've been fully recovered for a couple years now, feeling very grateful. Hoping you can achieve the same😊

i think thats just a symptom of PPPD. feeling like disconnected like you are semi drunk/tipsy with eye movements. Your eyes from what ive read play a huge part in PPPD.

In the description I’ve linked the vestibular exercises video which shows how I recovered! I’ve also created a digital recovery guide that covers absolutely everything I did to recover, along with reflections of how I could’ve recovered quicker. It also covers the topic of the dizziness anxiety cycle and how to break out of it! thehealthadvocate.etsy.com

I didn’t but I did get general head pressure as though someone was pushing down on my forehead, scariest thing ever

@@EMJAYstyles thanks what abit tingling on top of your head

Yes I get headaches bad

Yep! Always recommend this first as some people have ear crystals

Hi I just read that allergies can cause a stroke? Never heard that one before. 😳

I’ve done a whole recovery guide on my Etsy page (I’ve now been completely dizziness free for years because of the things mentioned in the guide!) I now live normally again and do all the things I used to love (and more!) thehealthadvocate.etsy.com
