Here's a thread for everyone to introduce themselves, and will make it easy for us to welcome newcomers.
As for myself, I have had VS for the past few years. It came very suddenly along with a host of other visual symptoms, dizziness, pins and needles feelings on my arms and legs, de-realization, and anxiety. I had a difficult time walking and reading for a while and dealt with some very bad motion sickness from the dizziness and vertigo. My doctors have tested me for just about everything a person can be tested for.
My primary diagnosis is Persistent Migraine Aura without Infarction, made by a neuro-ophthalmologist familiar with VS. I have a few others added on there as well.
Over the years, I can figured out how to deal with my symptoms, and while I will never be able to see things like I used to, I am finally ok with my new world.
