goodmorning LADIES,

Iwoke up this morning with my head spinning !!

I got up to go to the bathroom and I had to grab onto things to make it there . I felt like I was falling off the toilet. I laid back down and tried to go back to sleep but I opened my eyes and the room was spinning it is really scaring me because I have to work but I'm afraid this will affectmy driving!!

    yes, my perimenopause started with head spinning. the feeling was very uncomfortable. I could not walk straight. it stopped two-three years later. now I am heading to the end of peri, I do not have hot flashes but I have sudden feeling of spinning, whooshes in the ears and strange spinning feeling in my eyes. also very scary. i do sport, eat well, take vitamins, try not stressing myself, but this is really an unpleasant symptom.

    I know this post is a bit old, but I recently just posted the same thing. I woke up, turned over, sat up, and the whole room was spinning. I was so scared. I have been off balance ever since that day.
