    I constantly suffer from dizziness. I was diagnosed April last year. I also lose balance. Some days are worse than others 🙄

    Hi, are your symptoms constant or affacted by certain head movements?

    Hi there

    Are you taking beta blockers? If so issue could be that the dose is too high and your blood pressure has dropped.

    I was diagnosed with hyperthyroidism in May 2017.  At the end of January 2018  I was put on Block and Replace (carbimazole plus levothyroxine to stop me from constantly see sawing from hyper to hypo) and since then I have suffered double vision and your symptoms - dizziness if i turn my head suddenly so that I have to grab hold of objects to stop myself falling, plus the floating and heady sensation.  Its a horrible feeling and like you I just want to be back to normal again. But when this will happen no one can say.

    Still the same Peter with some days better than others.  I have the muscle pains and cramps plus joint pains which I forgot to mention yesterday and which I understand can be usual with this complaint.  All very variable. My consultant has now said I should think of a two year time frame but I am hoping I shall feel a lot better long before this!
