  2. Hi to all,

    Doctors said i have BBPV Vertigo that gets worse with movement.
    Sent me some exercises to do.
    Optitions said my blurred vision is migraine.
    I have another appointment on monday.

    Thankyou

    Dolphin5005.

    1. Thanks for the update! Hopefully the exercises they gave you help with the vertigo. And it’s good that you already have another appointment coming up so they can keep checking in on things. Continue to keep us updated! All the best, Latoya (Team Member)

    2. Hi Dolphin5005 (). People with RA are more prone to conditions, like Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo (BPPV), that cause vertigo (for those interested in more information on BPPV see https://my.clevelandclinic.org/health/diseases/11858-benign-paroxysmal-positional-vertigo-bppv). Hope the exercises help reposition those crystals. Also, RA and migraine are considered to have a bidirectional relationship that goes beyond simply comorbid (see: https://www.rheumatologyadvisor.com/features/new-studies-point-to-bidirectional-pathways-between-migraine-and-ra). I want to let you know that we have a sister-site for migraine at https://migraine.com/. There you can find the same level of information and support for that condition as you find here for RA.
