To add some optimism, I completed my triad of symptoms with vertigo. For 6 months I had vertigo and dizziness without balance daily and for another 6 months 3-4 times a week. Very slowly I improved and now I have been without attacks for 23 months and with normal balance (I even play paddle tennis and compete). By this I mean, I would wait at least 1 year before spending money on a wheelchair. Unless you have had surgeries that destroy the inner ear as that is permanent damage to your balance.
