I have had a lot of lightheadedness over the past 6 months but today, I'm on Day 5 I got an extremely bad case of it to include a bit of Vertigo.  Has anyone else experienced these symptoms and do you have any suggestions on how to make it stop?  Am I lacking something in my diet perhaps?

Thank you,

Tami

First off, have you seen a doctor about this.  I have dealt with vertigo for ten years now and it is important that you see a doctor to see if there is a functional/structural cause for your symptoms as there are lots of causes for vertigo.  For me it was eustacian tubes that were not working properly.  Over the years my vertigo has gotten much better but I still have flare ups.  From experience I find that if I do not drink enough water my vertigo can flare up.  Good luck with this.  Vertigo really impacts one's quality of life for sure!!!

I normally only have the lightheadedness which I have talked to my doctor about but she didn't seem concerned.  I only got the vertigo for a few moments yesteday but it passed.  I was thinking that maybe I am weak from the diet and I also started my monthly cycle the day I got it.  Today I am feeling just my usual lightheadedness and slight headache, but I am used to this I've had it for so long.  I do drink lots of water.  Someone at work got vertigo for a week and said something about losing crystrals in their ears.  Hopefull all of this will pass soon.  Thank you for the advice though, I do appreciate it.  Glad to hear that your vertigo is better as well.

Dizzy... Yes... me too...

Stay with the detox... it will pass... Stay away from diary, eggs, and wheat... Got the Ultra Metabolism cookbook and have been eating, a really different and tasty daily menu, loving it... Ears cleared, sinuses cleared up, my hearing improved.. lost about 12lbs in 6 days. But then, I worked out allot. Use a sauna, 20 30 minutes everyday, Drink all the water and the Broth...  This program is a life saver. I have no intention of going back to the other stuff... Sence I cook and she works night...

Yes, I am on Day 6 and have stayed away from everything I'm supposed to.  I have only had enough energy to work out twice this week for 30 minutes each.  I haven't taken the baths, not a big bath person and my bathtub is so huge it takes forever to fill up, maybe I will try one tomorrow night. 

Outstanding on your progress and weight loss, that terrific!  I have lost 5.4 lbs so far, which I'm satisfied with.  I plan to stay on the Ultrasimple plan for a while longer, the book says you can stay on it for up to 3 months and then I will switch to Ultrametabolisms's 8 week plan. 

I do plan to buy the cookbook, glad to hear it has good recipes, I am a cookbook junkie.  I also plan to try a couple of the other books Dr. Hyman wrote as well. 

Thanks again for sharing, and good luck to you in your ongoing progress!

Are you eating enough?  I know that I get light headed when I haven't eaten for quite a few hours.  When I eat something I feel better.

Me too

Hi Tami.

 

I'm on day 5, too, and just joined this group today because I was feeling shaky and dizzy this morning and had ringing in my ears.  This is not usual for me.  I think I've discovered that the tea may be partly to blame in my case.  I never drink tea or coffee, so this is a huge change for me.  I think maybe I'll quit the tea and do without the caffeine.
