Caloric Test: Understanding Vestibular Testing for Dizziness

[@sks220]

very helpful, I was wondering what they were looking for or what was happening when they did that test. I hope I can find the cause of my dizziness soon.

What's the results?

@@HE-cm8kt I took the test and the doctor prescribed an over-the-counter Vitamin called Lipo-Flavonoid and avoid some movements that trigger my dizziness. In my case not very helpful.

I have heard horrible things about this test, and I am so afraid to have it done! My dizziness has finally calmed down, and I do not want it to get worse again…I have seen people say they could not finish the test and ended up dizzy for days afterwards. 😢

How did it go? If you’ve already done it

[@archiehicklin9328]

As in the same boat (pun intended) right down to the calming of symptoms

The air part made me worse than dizzy could not stand up slurred my words shaking from head to toe but I could stand up I had to hold on to the wall was very upset crying complete nightmare 3 weeks later my neurologist still does not have any answers not even from the doctors who perform this

[@wycliffe1968]

I just had it and it was horrible for me. My body went into violent spasms they had to call a rapid response

[@rumblefish9]

I had this and had a panic attack during the test but the people doing the test was so understandable and kind. I powered through it and I was diagnosed with Meniere's.
