Hi Just come across your post.
Everything your experiencing is the same as me. All started 8 years ago with sudden Vertigo when I was sat in a meeting. I was having the most heavy period (start of peri menopause) it was also 10 weeks following whip lash injury.
So for 8 years I have suffered with almost constant balance problems. I also have possibly one/two episodes of vertigo each year. As you cam imagine my anxiety is high, to the point I am scared to go out especially in public places.
On a daily basis it's like I feel drunk, disembarking from a car makes me worse, but o.k when driving....so strange.
I was told it was Labrinthitis (although no sickness) then told it was vestibular neuritis. Seen Nuero, ENT etc. This week I have had a really bad episode that has caused me to feel anxious again so I have booked apt to see ENT next week.
I too am experiencing neck problems esp on left side. Also on 2 occasions leaving the hairdressers I have lost my balance to the extent I expected to hit the floor.
> could it be neck problem ?
> could it be menopause hormones ?
>could it be middle ear problem ?
> could it be silent migraine vertigo?
I do know this is ruining my quality of life
