    Congrats Vic.

    Exactly what is involved in treating this? Physical techniques? Type of operation?

    Yes its physical. You lay on a therapy table with your head hanging / free floating off the table (the therapist is actually holding your head level at first) while you look up at the ceiling. They turn your head to the right first see if it induces vertigo. They lower your head further and further until the vertigo induces, if it hasn't already done so. Once it (vertigo) starts they hold you steady until it fatigues. Then they continue to slowly lower your head until it's fully extended (pausing if vertigo starts). Repeat the procedure for the left side. Usually only one side will induce vertigo. Then you roll your body to the left until your looking at the ground. They held me there for about 15 seconds and waited to see if the position induced vertigo (it didn't for me). Last thing they do is sit you up and, again, see if vertigo starts (didn't for me in that position either).

    Affter you relax for a minute or two they do it all over again.

    Since it was in my right ear they said I shouldn't sleep / lay on my right side until I came in again.

    Wow. I've never experience this vertigo or probably anything like it, but having it purposely induced like that until it fatigues itself can be quite stressful, I'd imagine.

    Glad you're doing better with it!

    Good luck Victor. Hopefully you'll be back on your feet in no time.

    Just an update:

    Been through two more rounds of therapy and things went pretty well on the 2nd visit - they couldn't induce vertigo (even though they tried). I'm thinking :cool: problem fixed.

    Before I left I mentioned that they didn't try to induce it in the positions I normally avoid because of the vertigo. Therapist said I should go home and try to induce it myself in those positions I'd been avoiding.

    She and I were under the impression that the problem was fixed. It wasn't :( As soon as I laid flat on my back with my head turned sideways and then I turned my head to look straight at the ceiling BANG! I get vertigo.

    Went in today. Told them what happened. We try to induce the one we "fixed"...nothing :) Then we tried the thing I did at home...you guessed it - vertigo. So we kept repeating the position. Each time we did it the vertigo fatigued more rapidly.

    They are perplexed as to why it's still coming out. :confused: They want me to keep repeating the positions at home until, hopefully, it fatigues permanantly.

    That's where I'm at everybody. Thanks again for all the support :)

    Hang in there and keep strong!!
    I never had it like this where I grew up. But I send my kids here because the fact is you go to one of the best schools in the country: Rushmore. Now, for some of you it doesn't matter. You were born rich and you're going to stay rich. But here's my advice to the rest of you: Take dead aim on the rich boys. Get them in the crosshairs and take them down. Just remember, they can buy anything but they can't buy backbone. Don't let them forget it. Thank you.Herman Blume - Rushmore
