Members overwhelmingly confirmed that vertigo is a common experience alongside fibromyalgia, with many describing frequent falls, balance issues, and dizziness that ranges from occasional episodes to constant spinning sensations even while sitting. Several members shared helpful strategies and diagnoses, including medications like meclizine for dizziness, the Epley maneuver for vertigo relief, and medical findings such as calcium deposits in the ears or Meniere's disease that can explain the symptoms. A recurring theme was the importance of moving slowly to avoid triggering episodes, resting when symptoms intensify, and being cautious about medication combinations that can worsen dizziness.
