Is the dizziness associated with ms vertigo (spinning) or the other kind like lightheadness or "floating"?

I don't get vertigo, i.e., the spinning type of dizziness. However, I find that I'm much more sensitive to motion than I used to be. Years ago, I used to go on rides such as the zipper at the state fair and enjoy it while trying to get the car to flip upside down on purpose. I also used to be able to read in a moving car. Now? Well, now I can't even go on the swings with my niece and nephew when I take them to the playground. I can't really explain the feeling, it's not a spinning type of dizziness, it's sort of like a nauseating pressure in my head. Do I think it's MS related? You bet. Damn disease!froggygirl23 wrote:Is the dizziness associated with ms vertigo (spinning) or the other kind like lightheadness or "floating"?
Have you considered trying manganese supplements for this?NHE wrote:I don't get vertigo, i.e., the spinning type of dizziness.
