Dizziness & Vertigo Support Group
Dizziness is the sensation of instability. Vertigo refers to dizziness with a sensation of motion. Vertigo is more likely than other types of dizziness to be associated with nausea, vomiting, or double vision, to occur even when lying down, and to feel better with the eyes closed. If you are a frequent sufferer of dizziness or vertigo, join the group and find support.
If you'd like to get information from a larger group of people, you may be interested in joining one or both of the email-based support groups I particpate in:
Dizzinews is a general dizziness support group with an international membership. Lots of emotional suport, and some technical information here.

The Meniere's Discussion Group is more technical in nature, with less emotional support. It covers not only Meniere's but disorders that tend to look like Meniere's, such as autoimmune inner ear disease, migraine associated vertigo and platelet hyperaggreability.

There are a handful of people who belong to both groups, including myself and a physical therapist who specializes in treating balance problems.

I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
Thanks again..
