Vertigo
A couple of months ago Neal awoke feeling dizzy and seeing the world spinning around him. It lasted a couple of days or so then went away. Well, yesterday, Neal awoke with the same dizzy feeling with the world spinning around him. He was able to make it to all his meetings and conduct Sacrament meeting without falling over or looking too drunk! This morning when he awoke, he was experiencing the same dizzy, spinning sensations, so off to the doctor he went. Neal found out that he has something called "Positional Vertigo." It is something that comes and goes and is caused by small crystals of calcium developing and floating in the inner ear. It causes Neal to be dizzy and even feel nauseated. He was given some exercises to do to help things clear up faster. There is also medication he can take, but it completely zonks you! So right now he is opting for the exercises. So for today anyway I get some quiet time at home with my hubby!
