Things that have worked for me (Remember, I do have menieres so my condition may be different to yours)
- Eliminated caffeine from my diet
-Reduced salt intake to an absolute minimum
-I take a diuretic every morning
-Stemitil (Stemzine) can stop an attack in its tracks if taken immediately when feeling first signs of dizziness.
-Ginkgo Biloba three times a day. This is the thing that has had the most positive impact. My symptoms are now not present most days and when an attack occurs I can actually cope and keep working if I sit down. Before that I was totally incapacitated for the rest of the day.
The stemitil is like panadol for a headache ie a universal symptom treater , so if you are not yet taking it, ask your Doctor if it can help you.
