It seems to be working...

So, after initial concerns that the Antivert wasn't having any effect, it actually does seem to work, with a large enough dose.  The prescription is written for 1-2 pills every 4 hours as needed, but the doctor told me that I can go up to 4 pills every 4 hours.

On Friday, I gave her two to start, and after an hour there was no effect, so I gave her a third.  That seemed to do the trick!  Saturday, she took 3 pills in the morning, but didn't need any additional doses throughout the day.  Today, Sunday, she said that there wasn't any dizziness and she didn't need them.  It's the first day she hasn't been lightheaded since early February.

I've definitely noticed an improvement in her cognition; she's able to remember things and function much better.  That's a huge relief!

Wow! Success! Congratulations! I was kind of doubting it was going to work so I'm glad I was wrong! Yay for Madi!
P.S. Maybe she can go brunette now?? **grin**
