Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I had the head flu in Feb. that started with vomiting and loosing my balance to point of having to drag myself from the stool to the bed. My balance is still off. I went to my family practice MD and was taken off clonazepam I was taking for tinnitus and put on mecclizine 25 mg every 6 hours to try to help what my Dr. called dizzy and I call loosing my balance, and now my vision is bad. I am to call him when he gets back from vacation this Thursday. Vision being bad is worse than off balance, because I can t drive or read. What do you suggest?
