All About Vestibular Migraine & Dizziness: Dr. Shin Beh x The Dizzy Cook

[@starrynightsky3]

Thank you both so much for this video. I am recently diagnosed with VM and desperate to get things under control and have my life back.

[@russscott3532]

Great interview! Wonderful, hopeful, and very informative video. Thank you for taking the time to be interviewed, Dr. Bey

[@redpeach8416]

Thank you so much for this video! As a VM sufferer, I often feel alone in this fight. This gives me hope!

[@TheDizzyCook]

So happy to hear that!

[@michellejoy1997]

This is a miracle that I'm not alone. Thanks related to the comment regarding Attitude. I need to evaluate my doctors and find one that will wrap around medications to treat.

[@karenhaylor4660]

I cannot tell you how many doctors have ignored my dizziness over the years. I've always been sensitive to motion and get car sick and air sick easily. Elevators are the worst! My dizziness happens so frequently that I do not leave the house without Dramamine. Recently, something has changed. DRAMATICALLY. I'm absolutely terrified. About 6 months ago I started having some of the worst vertigo attacks of my entire life. I thought we were having an earthquake! In Florida! I was literally moving from one side of the room to the other as if I were on a rocky boat in the middle of a storm. It has gotten so bad that I cannot go to work, I'm in bed sick most days and my vision has become seriously diminished. I have suffered with migraines since I was 13 yrs old. I always get the dizziness and vertigo with them. This will not go away. My new insurance starts in 2 weeks. Questions. Have you ever treated anyone with my symptoms? What can I take for it? How can 8 describe this 5o my new physician without sounding crazy? Because it's overwhelming and 6 long months of this has me stressed anxious and on edge. It's debilitating. Please help.

What an amazing video such an informative video thank you 🫶🏻🙌 I wish I lived in the States and could go see Dr Beh too!

[@randomaccountxxxx]

Had VM for 10 years. Took 3 or 4 years to diagnose. It has messed up my life but I’ve still managed to succeed. All this new information if great. When I last searched there was very little info. Will be pursuing the latest research. Thank you for the info.

Thank you so much for this informative video! I was just recently diagnosed with VM and videos like this are beyond helpful with learning about this illness. It makes us VM sufferers feel less alone and gives us hope! Thank you 🙏🏼

[@Goat.Cheese]

Thank you for interviewing Dr. Beh! This is such awesome information. I feel a tiny glimmer of hope when I hear him speak :)

[@jennifergalantino700]

Fantastic interview - thank you! I’m new to this VM + MDDS diagnosis... good to know we’re not alone and there is hope for the world to stop spinning one day, or at least not spin so much!

[@TheDizzyCook]

Haha you're definitely not alone in this!! If you need some more resources on some of the things we talked about I have a lot of posts on thedizzycook.com that can help.

[@kathyrose1562]

Great interview! Very thorough. It’s so hard to find a doctor that cares like Sr. Shin Beh. I’m so thankful that I finally found my doctor. (The Dizzy Cookbook and your writings have helped me immensely!!) Thank You!

[@Amy-um2lk]

This interview was extremely informative. Dr. Beh touched on such a wide range of migraine and related vestibular issues (as well as treatments). Thanks for getting this info out to the public!

[@Amy-um2lk]

@MaeganMemories I’m actually doing a lot better! I’m using the computer and driving, and dizziness has really moved into the background of my life! Please check out Dr. Yonit Arthur, the Steady Coach, on KZbin. Her free program and videos have helped me so much.

[@CoreenKendrick]

Thanks so much for this comprehensive amazing video!! I have lived with this for 26 years now and I want to get better!! I live in a smaller city in BC Canada and as asking to see a Neurologist and ENT doctor. I have been taking notes regarding this so I'm educated and doctors don't try to short me with the Lorazepam!!! It's been the only thing that has given me a quality of life!! Without it I'm a shut out.

[@DorothySeiler]

Thank you. Helped me confirm and understand the ER dr,s diagnosis.

[@alimarvels83]

This is wonderful, thank you so much both of you. I've felt lost for the past month but now have more knowledge, a plan of action and hope :)

[@carlabradley5488]

Great information!! Your previous videos in 1&2 of your VM journey were very encouraging and great information. I wished you would have touched a bit more of VM in conjunction with anxiety and brain fog and anything encouraging in that aspect. Thank you for your openness and willingness to share and help others!!!! ❤️

[@jenniferziss9546]

So grateful for this video and you!

[@annc.packard4059]

Hoping to get an appointment soon. Have not been diagnosed with MdDS, but have all the symptoms for 3 years, getting worse. Recently been experiencing migraines for a month which is exhausting me even more. Need relief 🥴

[@M-L450]

Great way to discuss such a topic from different angles. Thanks for sharing.

[@soyadricatano]

this was so informative thank you

[@msomerville1]

This is very nice to listen to although I haven’t been really diagnosed other than BBPV and neuritis which I’m on a high dose of prednisone. What doctors are important to see other than regular doctor and Vestibular therapy.

[@teanan4410]

Thank you for the information! Very helpful!

[@urbangardens7470]

Already love you, Alicia and now I am in love with Dr. Beh!! Thanks, for doing this.

[@TheDizzyCook]

Oh yay! So happy it was helpful!

24/7 vertigo dizziness symptoms ENt can’t figure out my both ear feeling soft n never tearing

[@rhondac4379]

Do you happen to know of any doctors in the Montana area?

[@tinafabulous50]

Just got the diagnosis 2 days ago and looking for hope.

[@TheDizzyCook]

Definitely check out my website and book - so many have gotten better like myself!

[@jennyengland2506]

Wat eyedrop are the dr talking about,i would really like to know,i am also struggling with this disease for many,many years, i am currently on a pill called toplep it is for people struggling with ceazures,but it also works for people getting vestibulere meagrains

[@lithal8987]

Hi do you think DR Beh can take patient from abroad? I live in Spain. Thanks for all that you do to accompany us in this strange journey.

[@TheDizzyCook]

He can - I recommend emailing his clinic at the Beh Center for Migraine and Vestibular Disorders

[@lithal8987]

@@TheDizzyCook I already did 3 months ago but you need to be referred by an American doctor. I finally discovered that I have no vestibular migraine but cervicalgy that I treated with Chiropractor and anxiety. Unbelievable how the body can somatize. Good luck all

[@christyhunt8691]

Is there any known connection to Vestibular Migraines and Superior Semi-circular Canal Dehiscence?

[@truthteller8872]

Thank you so much for this Doctor. I wonder if having a complete hysterectomy where ovaries and uterus are removed, not having any estrogen, etc... can cause vestibular issues? Can it cause 24/7 feeling like rocking on a boat, severe fatigue and anxiety? Thank you again

[@TheDizzyCook]

Any types of changes like that can definitely trigger symptoms.

[@maryjanejenkinson6898]

Where is this video being broadcast from? Like a college setting or where is Dr. shin Beh from. I’m just starting my journey trying for someone to help me!

[@TheDizzyCook]

Hey Mary Jane - he is based out of Dallas. www.vestibularmd.com/ I also have some other recommendations here: thedizzycook.com/the-vestibular-migraine-guide-for-dummies/

[@urbangardens7470]

Wondering if Dr. Beh has any updates on Dr. David Zee's Magnetic Vestibular Stimulation study.

[@rosaliestarkell3695]

What if you wake up in the middle of the night with extreme attacks of the vertigo? How do you find out your trigger?

[@lizec1317]

Can be hormones

[@gjop-xm2xe]

Omg I live a half block from barrow do you suggest a dr there, great interview you have given me hope

[@TheDizzyCook]

I recommend the doctors here. I could not find anyone at Barrow with a specialization in VM. thedizzycook.com/the-vestibular-migraine-guide-for-dummies/

[@exlandscaper1933]

Hey. I have this vestibular neuritis with really bad double vision is that pretty notmal

[@TheDizzyCook]

Usually vestibular disorders can cause some visual disturbances but you may want to look into migraine and binocular vision dysfunction to rule those out too. I often see neuritis misdiagnosed when its actually migraine (myself included)

[@carikshawn4201]

Today is May 17, 2021...I got Dr. Beh's book a few weeks ago and WOW....have had trouble getting any doctor to diagnose VM but last week, the Physical Therapist I am going to for the balance and dizziness, said she does believe I have VM's...tomorrow I am going to the store and will be getting the food...I've waited because Friday I stopped eating sugar... and it's hard to stop eating it but I'm determined...

[@TheDizzyCook]

Sugar isn't a main trigger for most people if you want to keep it in on occasion. It just is a good idea to pair it with a full meal that contains fat and protein - I have more on this in my book!

[@KellyWellins1]

Thank you!!!!

[@Visionsofjade]

Hero!

[@sulimshah7506]

Very informative Thanks so much!

[@jennifers.7037]

I have permanent damage to my left inner ear from vestibular neuritis. I've been pretty much dizzy for 7 years now because of this. I also have chronic migraines. Can vestibular neuritis turn into vestibular migraine?? I have always wondered if my migraines are caused by my vestibular issue as my migraines developed after the onset of vestibular neuritis. Please reply if you know anything about this...I'm pretty desperate and can barely function :(

[@TheDizzyCook]

It can. They suspect that's how mine began but we don't know for sure.

[@loriemcmaster3086]

Excellent video! Thank you for your work.

[@TheDizzyCook]

THank you!

[@ScottishMagic89]

Is there nystagmus (flickering of the eyes) involved with vestibular migraines?

[@TheDizzyCook]

Yes there can be.

[@janiceince6221]

I live in the Dallas area how do I go about contacting Dr Beh.. I'm so desperate.. I'm pretty sure there's a waiting list.. Thank you.. What about his email address.. Thank you so much for this video.

[@TheDizzyCook]

Hi Janice, yes they are extremely busy due to taking patients from out of town with COVID and the popularity of the book and these videos. I am not able to refer people through UTSW at this time, but you are welcome to contact their office and keep calling to get on his wait list! utswmed.org/doctors/shin-beh/

[@janiceince6221]

The Dizzy Cook thank you!

[@anaerazo9735]

Thank you very much for this video I can see the light at the end of the tunnel can any body tell me where is the doctor office located I’m in NY

In NY go see Dr Mauskop at NY headache helped me aiot I had a TBI with a brain bleed Was not able to function had several vestibular issues and vestibular migraines..He is a caring Dr.. there are plenty of programs out there that can get you your medicine at a discount. Has written several books about the subject

[@maryjanejenkinson6898]

How do you find the right doctor ?

[@TheDizzyCook]

I have a post on this! thedizzycook.com/the-vestibular-migraine-guide-for-dummies/#2-find-the-right-doctor

[@Re-Destro]

Dr Shin looks like Dan Lok.

[@mevis81]

I currently taking verapamil and strict diet for my vestiublar migraine. My question is, if I get cefaly, will I still need to maintain and avoid foods that triggers migraine?

[@TheDizzyCook]

Most likely, yes. Every treatment combines to bring your overall threshold to getting attacks higher. So combining a good diet with supplements, meds, sleep schedule, etc. can all be very helpful.

[@patriciahough1109]

Can Forteo used for osteoporosis trigger vestibular migraines?

[@TheDizzyCook]

This would be a good question for your physician.

[@Withcare111]

I've just been told i possibly have vestibular migraine. Is having weak legs a part of the illness? When I try to walk apart from being incredibly light- headed, my legs seem like jelly. For sufferers is it normal only to be able to walk for a few minutes? I lose all energy then and the wave in my head becomes incredible.

[@Withcare111]

@MaeganMemories no not much . Try magnesium , vitamin b2 and b23 sunglasses when out , etc

[@taniag3481]

Im confused. I dont fit the blinds test for VM. It doesnt bother me more than something else...does that mean i dont fit the criteria?

[@TheDizzyCook]

No that's just one little thing. There's several criteria for diagnosing VM.

[@patrickidoux909]

Is fasting difficult with vestibular migraines?

[@asha1762]

For me no, I was at my best during the month of Ramadan where I was fasting from sunrise to sunset.

[@TheDizzyCook]

Typically it's not recommended for migraine patients but everyone is different.

[@vincent-rz1pr]

It shouldn't be.
