How Can Labyrinthitis With Sickness And Constant Movement Be Treated?
Hello, In the year 2000 I was diagnosed with Bi-lateral BPPV and I was given the Empley Manouvere but this was unsuccessful. In 2002 I had surgery to block a Semi-Circular Canal in the left side. Sinse then I have not had any major problems until 7 weeks ago when I woke up with the symptoms of Labyrinthitis which are still present today. I am expereincing servere symptoms of constant movement and sickness. My GP has prescribed me with Serc-16mg 3 a day, Cinnarazine 15mg 3 a day and Cyclizine 50mg 2 a day. He also has given me Buspirone 5mg 1 a day for anxiety; however I am reluctant to take this as it says the side effects include sickness and dizziness. I am feeling very poorly even with the medication. I am currently waiting for a refferal to an ENT Specialist, is there anything I can do in the meantime to improve things? Thank You Angela
