What a dizzying accomplishment

Oh, and I am sorry you have vertigo Davey Do. Are you doing the Epley Maneuver?

So, fill us in please!  Did this just start or has it been building?  I wouldn't like the unpredictability of vertigo!  Hope you improve soon!

Is this gunna be one of the solve the case riddles? Perhaps you have a tick bite somewhere out of the way with a strange allergy?

Maybe it is from all that dancing and ninja-ing.

Seriously though, I have had vertigo from being hit in the head and it is not fun. Hope you get better soon!!

Thanks for showing us your vertigo, now I have it too.

No, seriously, hope you are better ASAP. It seems like a miserable thing to have to deal with.

Stopping through because it's a Davey thread and I knew there would be pictures! ?

 

Seriously, I hope you get some relief soon.

ACT-SHOO-ALL-LEE, I am not suffering from vertigo. I submitted that GIF because it is a symptom and I thought it might help those new to the medical field in remembering this.

Back when I was learning A&P in the LPN program, I would draw pictures. For example, when we were studying the kidneys, I drew a little pic of a capsule character holding a bow and arrow.

Bowman's capsule.

However, now and again I do experience symptoms that I've self-diagnosed as Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo. I deal with it, as CharleeFoxtrot suggested, with a modified method of Epley's Maneuver.

I thank you all for your concern
