Guest guest Posted January 4, 2008 Report Share Posted January 4, 2008 Ellen, Thanks for replying We have tried Antivert and it doesn't even touch it. Nothing in 3 years has even touched it. She has continuous round the clock vertigo. I'm thankful at least something can help you.

Guest guest Posted January 4, 2008 Report Share Posted January 4, 2008 hi heidi. how many times had you been tested for lyme? chelsea Ambitionn01@... wrote: I also tested positive for babesia and bart, and am guessing I also have lyme because my CD 57 count is low. Out of every symptom, being dizzy was the worst because it makes it difficult to get out of bed without vomiting or falling over, and concentration is impossible. Luckily, I have mine under control with ginger root capsules, Rexall brand, at Walmart. I have also used Ginko Biloba in the past for this, and it worked. Well, since we both have the same three things and we both have extreme dizziness, now I know where I got it from. I think my middle ear is full of pathogens. I have always gotten car sick, boat sick, air sick and then when I hit my twenties, I got dizzy and nauseous without any help. Heidi N **************Start the year off right.
