      I've taken it before. It basically just makes you relax and get a little sleepy. You should be fine. My doctor prescribed Valium. It helps me. I only take it when I feel dizziness.

      I would rather not take any more pills if I don't have to.  Besides the "tincture" takes away any anxiety so it's helping on a few levels that NOTHING else did!  Yea!!!

      I don't want to sound mean, but it's not that easy to not worry about it, because when the dizziness is bad, the anxiety automatically hits.

      Do you take anything to keep you calm?

      I WOULD NEVER say not to worry about it?  I try to emphasise that it's perfectly normal to freak out.  I've been freaking out for two years!  LOL

      ?I'm not sure if the site is "bleeping" out parts of my messages but I do take a drop of a marajuana tincture that has let me keep my food down after throwing up every time i ate in the last two years.  i lost 60 pounds and didn't have much more available to loose.  The tincture helps in a number of ways but yes anxiety and light sensativity has decreased since I got my marajuana card.  I haven't thrown up in over 50 days and I've even gained 13 pounds!!!!

      You will be fine.. Dizziness with the anxiety sucks! You have to try an keep calm although its easier said than done.. I cant even begin to tell you what ive been through with dizziness and anxiety but past few months ifs settled down alot! Without any medication or anythin you just kind of have to live with it

      Neurologist can only help if it's a brain problems. Neurotologist deals with connections to the brain. Hoping he knows something can help.
