In December 2023, husband was diagnosed with Early Alzheimer’s, with possible vascular contributing factors. Three weeks ago, he told me he was having vertigo and dizziness. He figures it is the decline of his condition. From what I have read, it could be the beginning of vascular dementia. He has had several episodes since telling me. He does not want me to call the doctor since he has an appointment soon.
Has anyone’s LO experienced this?
While vertigo is not associated with Alzheimer's, a pretty large number of dementia sufferers DO develop it at some point, oddly enough.
Your husband should definitely call the doctor to see if Meclizine is recommended as a treatment so he can get some relief. Vertigo is very unpleasant.
I find the worst part of my vertigo is the nausea. Meclazine makes me too drowsy to function, but is OTC an may provide your husband relief (but he will be sleepy). I have a prescription for Zofran, which is an antiemetic and helps me a lot so I can function even through the dizziness.
I wish you success in getting it diagnosed.
Whatever it is, this is in the purview of medical diagnosistics.
I wouldn't start guessing; it's time to see the MD.
Good luck.
Once the mold went away the vertigo got better, she still has issues, a sinus infection and off balance due to probably pollen.
So really check for mold though the home
as long as the person hasn’t heart issues a little ginger in their tea helps calm the dizzy sickly feelings
sorry not answering ur question but maybe help in managing the awful symptoms
