    Hi, I took a high dose of MDMA about a week ago and have since been experiencing temporary but sudden onsets of extreme dizziness that last for about 20 seconds and then resolve. Am I going to die?

    I am 75 years old. apart from a mild heart attack two years ago I am healthy.
    About a month I found the world going round while lying down.
    Stugerone was suggested and I took ten tablets. There was an increase in the heaviness of the head. So I stopped the drug.
    The attack continues only when i lie down. Otherwise except for some uneasiness I am ok.
    Skb.

    Hi I was wondering if temporary memory loss was a possible symptom as well, because i have alot of the above symptoms but i seen a good friend of mine the other night and it took me almost an hour to figure out who he was, I knew that i knew him but i could not remember his name or how i knew him, the thing that confuses me is that i see him often so i should remember at least his name.

    I had my first experience with vertigo in 1980 at the age of 24 and I was totally baffled how my physicians didn’t know much about it cause or cure. Now I am 53 although it has a name my doctors still can’t tell me how it started and any possible homeopathic cures or treatment. So for me I use peppermint oil where I put on cotton ball and sniff. I helps soothe my queasy stomach while soothes my mind.

    I myself am having problems with vertigo that occur when I am on my back trying to sleep. It looks like a previous poster has the same problem, but in my case I feel like I am moving instead of the room. After examining possible things to start doing differently in my daily life, I am wondering what sort of benefits that yoga may have for people with vertigo. Yoga offers numerous health benefits, so one can’t go wrong. The elderly would certainly find numerous benefits in yoga as well as younger people.

    I’m so upset. Two of my doctors think I have vertigo with migraines and I can’t get in to see a neuro specialist until August. I can’t drive. I can’t even walk sometimes. Sometimes I’m in bed all day, because of the intense dizziness and pressure behind my eyes. I feel like it has to be a tumor because there is no way my brain could be making me feel like this. Every month it’s been getting worse and I heard vertigo goes away over time. I don’t know how true that is but I’m so stressed and I don’t know what to do!
