A really bizarre symptom i get is parallel lines make me dizzy and fall over. Does anyone else experience this ? I can't go out onto my decking and the carpet in my doctors surgery does it too.

    Hi Chrissy, your not going mad it happens to me to, my husband changed my lovely decking for boring slabs because it used to make me dizzy very unsteady on my feet and sickie,

    I used to go to a weekly meeting in a local community centre on a Friday for an hour but have stopped because I would feel quite ill, they have a tiled floor with swirls on them after about 5 minutes I felt the floor was moving which gave me motion sickness and I felt the floor was coming up to meet me, at first I thought it was because the hall echoes and made my ears feel strange but I've given it a miss as its not a enjoyable experience,

    I now know why I don't like piers I used to think it was the sea through the boards but no it's the virtagle planks that make me dizzy,

    I've got no answers for you but your not alone

    Gentle hugs Leona

      Yep that's exactly it ! I can't travel for more than 10 mins without getting sicky and dizzy. I wish we could change our decking but its about 6 foot off the floor lol. I also get dixzy when stand up, they say it's low blood pressure but i have high blood pressure ?!?! Also i'll just be sitting down and look to the right and that's it i'm spinning :-(

      hi christine,

      I am on medication to help with inner ear inbalance as i was just like you describe (some sort of anti-phsycotic which i can't remember the name of). They have helped a lot. I have been wondering about sjorens syndrome as i have to use artificial saliva and tears and also flush my nose.
