Thank you so much for this, Heidi. I believe you are on to something here. My vertigo began after a wicked cold during which time I began to have the starts of panic attacks. Never got into them deeply, felt like I was just skirting them but uncomfortable, nonetheless. Then I got hit with terrible vertigo and I notice now that when it comes on, especially at night, I often have that early panic feeling.So now I think that the vertigo might have been caused by or exacerbated by hyperventilation and over breathing.
What are you doing to keep cortisol, adrenaline & serotonin down ?In addition to bag breathing, you may also want to include taping your mouth at night.
My vertigo seems to be kept at bay (I can still feel it want to start if I hold certain head movements too long) with keeping CO2 high and serotonin, adrenaline and coritsol low, but maybe it is coincidence. I already consume a lot of salt, but never more than 1/2 teaspoon at a time.
There seems to be a correlation for me between vertigo and tension in the neck muscles and the muscles at the base of the head so maybe those get tight as stress (cortisol, adrenaline, serotonin) goes up.
There's a fine line between dizziness and vertigo. Before I talked to my Neurologist I called mine Dizzy Sick. You can just have a sensation movement back and forth, or just a woozy feeling in the head...hard to explain but vertigo is close to dizziness. I have a lot of pressure in ears and bad tinnitus that worsens with the vertigo attacks. How you found any relief yet ?It's not vertigo, it's dizzyness, there's been some tinnitus and other strange goings on too. People with meniere's and vestibular neuritis seem to do well on antiviral meds. I'm a few days into lauricidin and feeling a little better in terms of dizzyness and mental clarity. Lysine may have caused a bad reaction initially, I'm up to 2x 350mg per day now with no ill effects though.

I will check it out, thanks ! Glad you have improved@kaybb you should read about antiviral drugs and lauricidin on these forums. There are studies on AV and threads on experience with lauricidin.
