Balance has become a big issue for me as well. I try to make sure my feet are always firmly planted , but I have had a few nasty falls. At times I stumble around like a drunk, I do have a cane, but I don't want to get dependant on it so I haven't used it. I don't go anywhere without my cell phone, just in case.

I’ve been studying martial arts 20 years then tai chi for the last 10. My balance was phenomenal until chronic migraine disease. I bounce off the wall in the morning on the way to the bathroom. As I do my morning tai chi and qigong routines I often have to grab a chair or table. It’s so frustrating!!! The more I work the better it gets. Some days are much better. Will I ever get back to my previous level of balance? Gee, I would hope so but it seems like a daily, incremental improvement, with potential for 2 steps forward, 1stapd backward. Such is our life.

The dizziness is vestibular migraines. My headaches turned into vestibular after Covid shots

Be careful when going out unstable it could be dangerous. I’m often off balance with my migraines. I fell once and shattered my ankle. Five screws and two bolts later I use my cane and don’t care who looks.

I do too. Sometimes it's really bad. I just laugh and say "I told you my middle name is not Grace". Sometimes it's the migraines , sometimes it's the meds.
