Wow rose, i was worried about you. I'm glad you checking in, does your neuro know whats up with the vertigo ?
 
Good morning peeps,

I have been in vertigo hell. Seems i have crystal stuck in an ear canal? All i can say is when it hits and it did yesterday at PT while being treated for it,it feels like you are cruising along in an airplane and then the bottom falls out and you fall forever. I really hate it. I threw up three times at the physical therapist.. Now i am on meclizine and go at ten this morning and try again? I am scared. it is horrible. I have to sleep sitting up?
So that is where i have been.
And yes, keef, that is where i want to be listening to Ann Coulter. May she get vertigo.. not really wouldn't wish this on anyone.
Thanks for missing me you guys. I was hoping you would.
This will tell you how sick i am. I haven't smoked any pot in 2 days. call 911

Oh my god that sounds horrible Rose I wish I could give you a big hug I sure hope you start to feel better soon
 
looking good keef. not worried about light leaking outside from that window??
 
I have quite a bit of yard work. Tons of wind. Palm trees got some damage and flag pole snapped in half. Still in the 70's. 80's and 90's next week. Tons of farming still needs to get done.
 
It's like winter down here !-- A chilly 98 degrees with a 35 mph hot wind !-- Come mow my yard somebody !
 
When I got up this morning I had room for only 4 boxes in bloom !-- By lights out there be 5 boxes and room for 7 more !--- I need my sling !-- Left arm is done ! -- So goes the life of a Texas pot pharmer !
 
I thought I answered Dog's question about light leakage !-- I don't see it but anyway --Dog the inside that window covered in tinfoil !
 
Rose im so sorry you dont feel well. I hope this Vertigo thing goes away quickly. Love yas Mam.

The spinning sensation and dizziness you get from vertigo can limit your activities and make you feel sick. Depending on the cause, though, some simple maneuvers you can do at home might bring relief.

The most common type of this condition is BPPV (benign paroxysmal positional vertigo). It happens when small crystals of calcium get loose in your inner ear. You may feel it when you're getting in or out of bed, or tilting your head up. People over age 60 are more likely to get BPPV. It’s also the easiest type of vertigo to treat.

Before you try to treat it yourself, see your doctor. If you have vertigo, you'll need to know what type it is and which ear has the problem.

If you have BPPV, certain actions can move the calcium crystals that cause the problem out of your ear canal. That should bring relief.

Your doctor or a therapist can show you how to do these moves.

Epley Maneuver

If your vertigo comes from your left ear and side:

Sit on the edge of your bed. Turn your head 45 degrees to the left (not as far as your left shoulder). Place a pillow under you so when you lie down, it rests between your shoulders rather than under your head.
Quickly lie down on your back, with your head on the bed (still at the 45-degree angle). The pillow should be under your shoulders. Wait 30 seconds (for any vertigo to stop).
Turn your head halfway (90 degrees) to the right without raising it. Wait 30 seconds.
Turn your head and body on its side to the right, so you're looking at the floor. Wait 30 seconds.
Slowly sit up, but remain on the bed a few minutes.
If the vertigo comes from your right ear, reverse these instructions. Sit on your bed, turn your head 45 degrees to the right, and so on.
Do these movements three times before going to bed each night, until you've gone 24 hours without dizziness.


Semont Maneuver

This exercise is similar to the Epley maneuver, though not as popular in the United States. For dizziness from the left ear and side:

Sit on the edge of your bed. Turn your head 45 degrees to the right.
Quickly lie down on your left side. Stay there for 30 seconds.
Quickly move to lie down on the opposite end of your bed. Don't change the direction of your head. Keep it at a 45-degree angle and lie for 30 seconds. Look at the floor.
Return slowly to sitting and wait a few minutes.
Reverse these moves for the right ear.
Again, do these moves three times a day until you go 24 hours without vertigo.

Half-Somersault or Foster Maneuver

Some people find this maneuver easier to do:

Kneel down and look up at the ceiling for a few seconds.
Touch the floor with your head, tucking your chin so your head goes toward your knees. Wait for any vertigo to stop (about 30 seconds).
Turn your head in the direction of your affected ear (i.e. if you feel dizzy on your left side, turn to face your left elbow). Wait 30 seconds.
Quickly raise your head so it's level with your back while you're on all fours. Keep your head at that 45-degree angle. Wait 30 seconds.
Quickly raise your head so it's fully upright, but keep your head turned to the shoulder of the side you're working on. Then slowly stand up.
You may have to repeat this a few times for relief. After the first round, rest 15 minutes before trying a second time.

Brandt-Daroff Exercise

Here’s what you need to do for this exercise:

Start in an upright, seated position on your bed.
Tilt your head around a 45-degree angle away from the side causing your vertigo. Move into the lying position on one side with your nose pointed up.
Stay in this position for about 30 seconds or until the vertigo eases off, whichever is longer. Then move back to the seated position.
Repeat on the other side.
You should do these movements from three to five times in a session. You should have three sessions a day for up to 2 weeks, or until the vertigo is gone for 2 days.

Follow Up

For the rest of the day after doing any of these exercises, try not to tilt your head too far up or down. If you don't feel better after a week of trying these moves, talk to your doctor again, and ask her what she wants you to do next.

You might not be doing the exercises right, or something else might be the cause of your dizziness
