Hey everyone. I have had MS for a couple of years and I suffer from chronic vertigo which never goes away (but does differ in intensity). I am reluctant to go to public places because I dont feel steady. Can someone help me?

Are there any good drugs that act directly on the CNS? I've tried various balance exercises but they dont seem to work.

Hi, Jason.

Keppra works directly on the CNS. Talk with your doctor about that one.

Nice to meet you, by the way.

Best,

Deb

you may have a different kind of vertigo, but you might want to check out the link posted by Art in this thread:
