I suffered for about two and a half years with dizziness and a stormy head, feeling sick and sometimes a pressured ear. I was diagnosed with silent miagraines. However I have recently been diagnosed with pernicious anaemia, meaning I am deficient in b12 and my vitimin d was also low, which can also cause my symptoms so thought I would pass on to others to save them suffering for so long as I cant believe how ill bein low in vitimins can make you!

    Hi Laura - my ENT didnt even know about silent migraine.  It took another year after that and neuro surgeon (neck scans) to be referred to neurologist because my jaw was aching.  Now Im under a migraine specialist at salford royal hospital.  We went thru my childhood history and it turns out my bad sinuses were in fact migraine.  So me too had that all my life.  I didnt realise it.  Not seeing him till april.  Seeing neurologist next week.  Ive had blood tests but will mention the B12.  I know I dont have an iron deficiency.  As I used to have one and its been fixed.I really hope this is going to work for you.  I think maybe all our causes could be slightly different but resulting in dizziness. If this doesnt work, ask to see a neurologist. Good luck x

    Hi Laura, I'm so excited for you to have found some relief from this horrible condition. It's funny that you mention the vitamin B12. I just had a client tell me about the vitamin B12. She had been diagnosed with it and is now taking weekly shots. She said she feels much better. My dr doubled me up on Vitamin D so I am taking 8000 mg but I'm going to definitely go get tested on the B12. I really hope that is going to help us all. Thank you for letting us know what is going on with you in hopes to find a cure for us too. Keep in touch and let us know how you improve. Best wishes
