My dad has MDS and started dacogen in March . He always on a scale from 1-10 on how he feels is 7. 10 of course being great. He always feels dizzy.
I thought it was chemo. He just recently went to am ENT and said he has a virus in one ear. They said if it was from the chemo he would have it in both ears.
The medicine he takes has helped him with the dizziniess. I know Valium is a drug of choice as well for this condition.
Why don't you consult with an ENT for help. Maybe you have the same problem my dad has. They said it should go away over time.
I will get the name of the condition and the name of the medicine for you .
I sure hope this helps you.
My dad discribes it as looking at the world through someone's else's eyes.

Get well soon.
Mary
