TALK ABOUT BEING A SACKO……

Opam 2017

I am so very sorry I am so late with this post…My darling partner in crime Kris and I hope you all had a wonderful month and I am sure there were loads of finishes….

Also I had a SPECIAL birthday, I turned 60….

I have no idea where all those years have gone, but am so very grateful that I am still here, as I know there are many who are not……

I suffer from Vertigo, have done for lots of years now, very lucky that it has only put me in bed on a few occasions, mine seem to ‘just happen’ lasts maybe 10 minutes, (spinning, nausea, to focus is really hard) and I then just feel YUK until things settle down….

I have a question for any other VERTIGO suffers, as the last few weeks have been quite bad….

ANY TIPS PLEASE……

SUPER HAPPY SUNDAY

  1. No tips..sorry. I have have it very occasionally but it is annoying and mine, like yours, only lasts a short time. It's really scary when driving! Hope yours improves.

  6. Oh dear Peg, I'm sorry to read that your special birthday was marked with your vertigo. I too live with episodes of this every few months, but mine subsides after a few days.
    I really encourage you to talk to your GP about treatment & management. There are options available, & the success of them varies from patient to patient. You really don't want an episode that results in a nasty fall or injury!

  7. My mum would feel for you Peg, as she has been suffering from it for most of the last year. The only thing the doctor seems to offer exercises to retrain your brain. I hope yours eases up. Other than that, I hope you had a wonderful birthday.

  11. My husband was suffering from vertigo and finally he went to physio for realignment of crystals in inner ear and exercises to do daily and when he gets dizzy. When he lifts his head up high to get something, that triggers it. He has to stop for 10 seconds and repeat the same motion that caused the dizziness. Repeat this same action 5 times until the brain accepts that this action is normal and then he is ok to go. He also takes meds when he starts (not when it is full blown as it takes longer for meds to react) to feel really dizzy and that helps a lot.

    I really feel for you because when I saw what it was doing to my DH, Lordy, that is not fun at all.

    Congrats on turning 60! That is a definite milestone!
