Well after a week or so it seems my symptoms are returning despite the valacyclovir. I'm just over the 3 week mark and had planned to drop down to 2 g a day but I guess I'll have to stay at 3 g. I'm not sure what triggered it, but I think it happens if I skip meals. To refresh after 2 weeks on valacyclovir my symptoms completely resolved for a week but now have returned the past 2 days. Discouraged.
It is not an on off switch. It will be two steps forward and one back. But eventually, that will get you where you want to go.
I don't know what to say other than hang in there and keep working it. Menieres sucks! The medical industry is infantile in the reality we live each and every day. As I look back at my own journey, it has been ongoing for over a decade. The problem became reality when it became every day. When I started spending nights sleeping by the toilet, when I had sudden onset vertigo at work. The problem becomes very real when these things occur. Unfortunately, it only becomes real for the sufferer. There are answers and there is relief. Keep seeking and digging. This BB is a great source of info and encouragement. K
