Constant Feeling Of Pulling And Pushing, Suggested Vertigo, Advised Vertin. How Fast Will It Work ?

hi for the past 2 weeks I have been having this constant feeling of being pulled or pushed in any direction. especially when I walk and sometimes when I am sitting. sometimes it even happens when I am lying down. I had an MRI and an ECG and both came normal. I even consulted an ENT and my pure tone audiometry came out normal. all my vision tests such as field and fundoscopy were also normal. the doctor suggested I have vertigo. I have been taking vertin 8 mg for the past 3days. how long will it take for it to work?? is it truly vertigo??

Hi Swasti,

From your description of the problem it certainly sounds like vertigo, but a diagnosis can only be made by a physician who has seen you. It is reassuring that all the tests have come out as normal. Therefore you will have to give time for the vertin to act. As to how long it will take to act, or whether it will help at all is the billion dollar question no one will be able to answer with certainty!

Hope this helps?
