My experience-"Victory over vestibular migraine"? Vestibular migraine questions

---

My last regular headache neuro follow up appt, my doctor and I came to the conclusion that my migraines are "vestibular", which I had never heard of before. I asked if there was anything we should be doing differently to treat them going forward and he recommended I read a book called "Victory over vestibular migraine". I bought it, and have planned on reading it but just really struggle with reading due to multiple conditions.

Have any of you read this and could summarize a take away for me?

Alternatively, any other suggestions for treating and preventing vestibular migraine?

I've been on botox for a couple years now and it helps with the head pain, but just last fall I started getting new symptoms and new triggers. Primarily nausea, disorientation, general malaise, and an intense feeling of pressure behind and around my eyes. My first thought was sinus infection, which was ruled out. My second thought was tumor, but my neuro says that would've shown up on my sinus CT.

My biggest trigger is flashing or pulsing lights, especially when driving through trees and the sun is coming through the leaves. Also, driving in general is a trigger, and crowded and loud environments. I'm also on a beta blocker and have dysautonomia, pots, reynauds, hEDS, MCAS, sleep aonea, narcolepsy, adhd, and IBS and am on several medications to treat those, but nothing changed prior to these episodes starting.
