Um, Ron, dear, you often ARE drunk, sweetie! LOL Wink

Seriously, there are things you can do. Google info on the condition "BPPV." Look up the things they recommend you do to manage the condition at home, besides the treatment options. It really helped me a LOT! It's too much for me to go into in a post here, but you can find all the info you need on the net! It's great, and you'll find your home a LOT more manageable!

(Told you we'd come out of the woodwork to talk to you about this! Wink )

*hugs*

P.S. If you want to talk to me more about anything or need someone to vent to, PLEASE feel free to send me a PM, I'll be glad to listen or even give advice, if that's what you need. I'm almost always around! Smile

Just because it's impossible doesn't mean it can't happen.

I'm not a doc, so anything I say is my opinion only. Nothing I say is meant as offense, I offer what I can as help. I believe in educating myself on all my medical issues and being my own advocate, for no one else with do that on my behalf. I recommend we all do the same!

The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results. Perhaps I truly am insane for expecting these docs to listen to me when I say the same things repeatedly to no avail? LOL. I am tired of seeking out new docs and getting the same result time and again...Forgive me if I seem bitter some days.

Something has changed within me/Something is not the same/I'm through with playing by/The rules of someone else's game/Too late for second-guessing/Too late to go back to sleep/It's time to trust my instincts/Close my eyes and leap...I'm through accepting limits/Cuz someone says they're so/Some things I can not change/But till I try I'll never know/Too long I've been afraid of/Losing love I guess I lost/Well if that's love/It comes at much too high a cost/I'd sooner buy Defying Gravity/Kiss me good-bye I'm Defying Gravity/I think I'll try Defying Gravity/And you won't bring me down...
