We got into quite a conversation about how we both were having random spells of dizziness called positional something vertigo. Then when I checked my e-mail I read your post about the very same thing. Shara said, "Its the traveling auto immune roulette." Is that really part of this autoimmune ride? I know that it seems like I develop new "things" all the time and the allergies that used to bother me don't so much any more, they're replaced by other weird things. What's coming up next?<br /> Mine at least isn't so bad that I can't get out of bed, I just have random dizziness from picking something up off the floor or when I'm doing yoga and tilt my head a different way - things like that. <br /> The things you learn from this blog!

Severe symptoms for 6 months. 2 neurologists and 1 neuro surgeon later... They are sending him to the Cleveland Clinic.

Its the traveling auto immune roulette. One day month it's carpal tunnel, one month it's bursitis somewhere and then it moves on to that inner ear thing. Now I guess we know how a fish feels flopping around on the ground. Just take your gabapentin. I'd have paid money to watch that. Ho! Ho! Ho!

I was told that sjogren's could be part of the problem, even if I also have an inner ear problem. Take care.annienoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-690850457652849477.post-12401639229356645362013-12-20T09:40:45.564-08:002013-12-20T09:40:45.564-08:00Correction, the Epley maneuver is done by a doctor...Correction, the Epley maneuver is done by a doctor, it's the Brandt-Daroff Exercises you can do yourself at home.Betsihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03861482447169647656noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-690850457652849477.post-84125829544003273392013-12-20T09:38:21.655-08:002013-12-20T09:38:21.655-08:00Oh, Julia, I feel for you!

Do a Google search for the Epley maneuver, it's not the most pleasant thing but it can be very helpful. It's possible you can be feeling "steady" again before Christmas. Good luck!Betsihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03861482447169647656noreply@blogger.com
