LIVING WITH VERTIGO
Ten type of tablets and a week off work, and still I feel as dizzy as I did seven days ago. I guess I am going to have to get used to living with vertigo for a while; hopefully not for too long though.
I am fine as long as I do not move. As soon as I move my head, either from side to side or up and down, I feel dizzy. Apart from these dizzy feelings I feel totally fine.
Does anyone have any suggestions on how I might be able to cope with vertigo?

i am having vertigo now as i type.. been almost 8 hours..and like u i am okay if i dun move much..

Thanks for your comment Eileen. Vertigo is horrible because, certainly in my case, there is no reason why it should be happening. Everything else checks out fine.
I hope you feel better soon.
Andrew, sorry to hear about your condition. I must say that I think most people suffer from some sort of ailment, especially as we all get older, and it's a bitch. That won't make you feel any better, but I hope you can adapt to your situation. I've had tinnitus for over 12 years; there's no solution but to keep a radio on at all times.
But do keep in mind that your vertigo is a relatively minor affliction compared to all the other medical problems going around.
Now, do you feel any better?

Carl, yeah I do feel better now - thanks. I know there are a lot worse things than can be happening to a 38-year-old.
