Hello community,
I am new here and have recently been diagnosed as having migraine associated vertigo or M.A.V. after 6 years of ENT Dr.'s giving me every diagnosis known to man. Finally one ENT sent me to a neurologist because my constant light and noise sensitivity did not improve even after my dizzy spells would end. I continued to get right side facial numbness and tingling and light sensitive episodes that really did not fit the other diagnosis. The neurologist gave me the MAV diagnosis. Especially since my Dad has always shared the same symptoms as me and my younger sister has typical migraine. I get episodes frequently and am looking forwad to sharing information.  |
