Kes: I began getting vestibular migraines a few months into the pandemic--I had already been treated for standard migraines for over a decade--and my description goes like this: imagine being stuck on the most nausea-inducing ride in the amusement park for two hours, and every time you think it's slowing down, it starts up again. I haven't heard of anyone else experiencing the level of intense nausea that I do. I accidentally came across the info that magnesium supplements can help alleviate migraines, and since starting to take magnesium about a year ago, at least the severe nausea seems to have been alleviated, although I still get the vertigo migraines, just less intensely.
So, my recommendation: try magnesium supplements, as they have many positive benefits (I've heard this from a number of nurses and doctors, and there are also studies).
