I am also curious if you only have those 3 exercises to do, I have about 8 that I do once a day (takes about 20 minutes) and then I do the card exercises 3 times per day. thanks for your time. ginger Sorry, I meant to type HI vertigo guy…….

I took myself off caffeine for a few months but started drinking it again this week. Please tell me how your doing. I apparently have nerve damage in my right ear from 14 years ago, so I have been dealing with this for many years. I got to the point where I could not shop and I could not drive on the highway, I can drive a couple of miles on the highway but i'm so worried that I just take the back roads wherever I need to go. my email address is gsoave@aol.com if anyone wants to comment. thanks!

I felt slightly better in June but now I'm back to square one and can hardly walk outside due to crippling disequilibrium.

For me having it diagnosed had the most positive impact on my life as I was living in my own world, couldn't drive, couldn't work and felt uncomfortable being on my own. I thought that I had some type of mental illness as I went undiagnosed for up to 8 months and no one could give me an answer until I went to a neuro physiotherapist. I now have it under control but from time to time have what I call a bit of a relapse. I am unsure whether alcohol has an impact but I know that if I am extremely tired and have gone without a minimum amount of sleep, there is a good chance depending on what I am doing. It was the most terrible time of my life and I feel sorry for anyone going through it but the exercises did work for me and I am thankfull! I had and still suffer from this to some extent.

Extraordinarymachine, I'm definitely going to stick it out with the exercises, no matter how bad I feel. But it's always nice to get some encouragement. :) Tonia -- sorry to hear that you've got the dreaded vestibular damage. I know exactly how you feel, and it's certainly no fun. I was going to answer here about the VRT, but I figured I'd write a new post instead to answer your question. :D Thanks for the kind words both of you.

Stick with it, even when you feel like you've had enough and remember that things are always difficult before they become easy. Good luck!
