Beschreibung
Dizziness is one of the most unexplained and under-treated symptoms in health care today. If you experience dizziness or vertigo, your health care provider will first rule out a cardiac or neurological emergency. If you are cleared, and I certainly hope you are, then you will enter the maze of the traditional health care system. The next steps will more than likely include referrals to other specialists and medications to help with your symptoms.
And so, your journey begins. You will be thrust into what I call "navigating the health care system as a dizzy patient." This is a daunting task and is not for the faint of heart. I know. I have been there. Long before I began my studies in physical therapy, I suffered from chronic, recurring--and often debilitating--spells of dizziness and vertigo.
After years of searching for answers about my condition, I was able to solve my own complicated case. Thankfully, I had learned that the key to properly diagnosing and effectively treating dizziness and vertigo is root cause evaluation. Lack of root cause evaluation can delay your recovery for months to years, and this lack leaves many cases unsolved.
My private practice for patients with dizziness and vertigo is based in San Diego, California, USA, and many patients have traveled here from all over the world to consult with me in person. Yet I receive queries frequently from patients worldwide who cannot travel here for my care. Because of the overwhelming number of requests I receive from people outside my service area and because of my mission to help dizzy patients regain some normalcy, I have written this book as a guide to help you learn how to find proper care and the correct treatment plan, with or without an accurate diagnosis.
Essentially, you will be asked to put on a sleuth-like hat and become a vertigo detective. With some education and solid guidance, I believe you can learn how to properly navigate the health care system to achieve the best possible outcome for your case of dizziness or vertigo.
I want to help you get your life back!
