Imbalance That Is Worsening. Stopped Lexapro Few Days Back. Normal?

Lexapro withdrawal can be associated with a number of potential complications including dizziness and loss of balance.
The symptoms can last up to 14 days in most persons , rarely it can last 2 to 3 months.
It is best if it is tapered under doctor supervision so that any complications can be monitored and addressed.
In terms of the variant of meniere's, this condition is also a common cause of vertigo, it is one of the three most common causes. It is usually associated with hearing loss and tinnitus ( perception of sound in the ear such as ringing or buzzing).
If you experienced these additional symptoms before when the meniere's was particularly bothersome and they are not present on this occasion then it is likely that the symptoms are solely related to the lexapro withdrawal.
Meniere's can be treated in some cases by the reduction of salt intake and the use of diuretic medication.
It is also possible to have a combination of the two affecting your balance.
You may want to consider visiting your doctors for an assessment to exact which is definitely causing your symptoms.
I hope this helps, feel free to ask any other questions
