- I was just clicking randomly around the web, and I came upon this post by Sam Harris. He is a well-known "free thinker" (aka "atheist philosopher"), though, that's not really the point of this post.He talks about turning 40 and developing ringing in...
- Washington Post printed a couple of articles about vertigo today.It's a familiar story for most of us.Wondering what you all think about these ?The cause of the vertigo for this first guy is mysterious -- he's had a number of viral infections and...
- Hey, all. Been a while since I had to complain about the vertigo. It has come back to clobber me every day since the Spring Semester started. It is not as bad as it was 3 years ago, but it is a hefty reminder of how much it messes up people's...
- End of the semester at college, and it's finals week. I'm feeling less than alert. So, an hour before my last final tonight, I bit a quarter off of a No-Doz (caffeine pill).I was fine until about 40 minutes into the test, and suddenly I felt all...
- I may not have RLS as bad as some people here, but it certainly was agony for me for years and years. I finally did learn how to control it -- on my own -- through dietary changes, and by avoiding meds that triggered it, and by compensating in...

- I don't have anything to ask or add. Just wanted to say somewhere to people who understand. It's been a turrable month. I always wonder how much allergies compound the dizzies. Still don't know.None of my usual coping mechanisms are making a dent in...
- I had a weird & disturbed experience the other day while driving in the snow. I'd not driven in snow since the vertigo began almost 3 years ago. It doesn't snow here much. I was okay for a while, until it started coming down really heavily. I had a...
- I'm having a horrible week. Glad I finished college last week, yay! So dizzy & confused, and eyes all crossed. Don't know what's real and what ain't. Everything is an obstacle course. Just wanna cry half the time....re: ALLERGIES?It is time for...
- Wondering if anyone was told that their problem is make worse by sleeping on their face, side or back?I've had a lot of problems around my right eyeand the left side of my jaw is messed up.The position that puts me to sleep quickly is sort of on my...
- I've been taking most of my classes online to finish my degree, which has been a huge help. I've had a few subjects on-campus while I've had the vertigo. And it's been hard -- blanking out during class discussions, and trouble concentrating while...
- My teeth have been uneven for years, but the TMJ/TMD is driving me crazy for the last two. The jaw pain and vertigo are one thing, but my teeth are suffering, too.I've been great about dental care, but my teeth grind together in just a couple of...
- Hi. I have had vertigo every day for almost two years now. I did not even know that dizziness came in two types when I went to the doctor, then. Now, I know too well, but don't know what to do about it.Everything is still a possibility,...
