Sense of balance.....lack of

Hi,
I'm wondering if anyone else has a really bad sense of balance during CH? During the last week or so I've noticed that I've had to take major care of myself when walking, in a straight line has been interesting (hey, no alcohol required) and not walking into people. Could it be the trex shots?
Any ideas?
Cheers
Marta

It could be a side effect of something your taking, however I would definately consult with your doc.
Sorry I wasn't much help

Hi Marta,
Definitely check the meds you're taking. Don't know if you're taking it or not, but when I was taking Lithium for the CH they messed up my legs pretty bad.
When I wasn't rolling around with the CH pain, I was falling down from the Lithium.
Hope this helps...Good luck!
Joanie

I don't have balance problems as much as I just can't really see where I am going while dancing with my hand pressing in on one eye and the other one filled with tears from crying due to the pain. I tend to walk into door facings once in a while as I pace through the house.
If it's bad, maybe you should check your meds and call your doc.

Marta, that's not a usual symptom - you really should get it checked. It could very well be due to meds. Or, it could be the normal congestion that a clusterhead gets - your ears can also get congested and that can definitely cause a balance problem, if your inner ear is full.

It sounds like vertigo, which can be an inner ear infection. The very first time I got hit with ch It started with a week of vertigo. Crawling on my knees everywhere. I doubt if they are related but you should have your dr check you out.

Verapamil makes me a little wobbly. Especially when I stand up from a sitting position real quick!
