Marsh (Colorado) on 11/03/2026:
After SSCD surgery (another story of bigger issues that this very expensive procedure caused), an ENT specializing in SSCD suggested melatonin, feverfew, riboflaven, and butterbur. His colleague at Johns-Hopkins wrote a book about these helping vertigo. I notice that when ocular migraines start up, these herbs work magic.
I have had cerebellar ataxia for over 20 years and have seen dramatic improvement in the last 2. Improving my mitochondrial health has been key, 1500 mg of coq10, a red light hat worn 2x a day for 10 minutes, 2000 mg magnesium glycinate, 2000 mg magnesium l-theoronate, 1/2 tsp potassium citrate, 6 mg lithium oratlate, 2000 mg lions mane mushroom, 50 mg of iodine, 1/4 tsp borax. I do take other supplement but these things seemed to make the most difference. I do still have trouble walking but many motor skills have come back and I believe my brain function is close to normal
