Well, it's still hanging around. It's not too bad now, but I can tell that it's not ready to leave me alone.
I feel okay while lying still and I can even move around in the house okay at times, but once in a while, especially when I look down or turn my head sideways, I get really dizzy. Not enough to fall or anything, but I have to stop and wait a minute until it stops.
It reminds me of having motion sickness and I bit like when I got really drunk a few times and couldn't hold my head up, but worse.
I wouldn't wish this on anyone, I repeat, ANYONE.
I guess I'll go to the doctor tomorrow, if it doesn't miraculously go away by then.....
great weekend, huh.....!? My wife took off five days, but she loves the pool and the weather has been great for that, so I guess it's not all bad.
thanks

One of my coworkers had to go get some sort of therapy to stop hers. They leaned her back and forth until she got dizzy and then moved her head around until it quit. Something about ear crystals caused hers.

I have it 2 or 3 times a year. It has alot to do with sinus problems. Mecclazine kind of helps.

Still hanging around.....
This is without a doubt the worst illness that I have ever had..
It is not too bad early morning, but by the end of the day it gets worse.
I went to the doctor and he gave me some more meclazine to take and told me to just ride it out....he took some blood and basically told me "good luck".
If this ever leaves me, I'll say a little prayer every day in hopes of it never coming back.
My doctor told me that it likely will in 6 months or a year....
My question is, "What happens if I'm up in a treestand when this comes back?" "What if I'm driving down the road or on vacation...etc.?" What do I do?
This has changed my life.......

Vertigo sucks!! Have had it a couple times. Have a friend who has Minears Disease, he would get vertigo so fast and so bad he could not drive at night. Hope you feel better soon.
My mom had this...going to a low sodium diet helped her a ton she hasn't had problems in a long time and Im sure all of us are better off for the diet change around the house.
Feel better BH!
