OMG... So i feel like I'm leaning to the right constantly and I'm sitting perfectly still. This is the freakiest feeling. I have light-headedness and even true vertigo but this...wow. It's as if gravity is pulling on just one side of my head and I feel like I'm going to fall over. HELP! Any suggestions? How do I deal with this?

Call your neurologist now. They are the only ones who can help in this type of situation.

I just called again after not hearing back from when i called this morning. Only to be told the nurse had my message and would get back with me when they had time. This office won't even schedule patient appts without the doctors approval first. And no, i'm not a new patient. I am an established patient there.

If your doctor won't return your call and it gets too bad, you might think of going to the ER

I've given up on ERs. Again I was in the ER last Saturday due to sudden vertigo that completely incapacitated me. I couldn't even lift my head off the couch. I was taken in via ambulance and released 45 minutes later with no testing and told that I probably had allergies or a complex migraine. That was it. Where I live (in the boonies) there is only one hospital within 30 minutes of here and it is useless. They are idiots. My only hope for good care has been trying to get into major hospitals like OSU. In fact I am trying to get a referal at this very moment for the OSU MS Doctors. They require a referal. I am waiting to hear back if another doc that followed me for years at OSU will make the referral.
