Gwem Posted May 14, 2004 Report Share Posted May 14, 2004 I went to see yet another doctor today....an internist..and he suggested that I try Scopolamine it's originally a sea-sickness medication that is in the form of a patch that i am supposed to put on behind my ear..... he said this could help with my vaso-vagal responce which causes the dysautonomia symptoms i get......he said it could help to "calm them down" so that i will be able to eat and not have random episodes of vertigo and weakness and headache..has anyone been prescribed this before?? any insight would be helpful thank you!

morgan617 Posted May 14, 2004 Report Share Posted May 14, 2004 i had scopalamine once for a meneiers attack. it caused me to have hallucinations, ie hamsters all over the place it can also make you very very dry. they use it pre op to slow down secretions, so just keep that in mind. it does work well for a lot of people, but not sure i'd try it again. morgan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
