    Bergman, 

    Vertigo is the symptom that puts me in bed. It is the most fearful and debilitating for me. 

    Have a symptom free Sunday. One day at a time. Sometimes one hour at a time. Ha

     Hello everyone. The first symptom I ever had was a white noise in my ear. Kind of like a seashell noise only very loud. It would come and go and sometimes be really loud and sometimes be really quiet. After about six months the noise is there 90% of the time and that used to bother me but now when the vertigo attacks have started, the noise in my ear is nothing.  The hardest thing for me is how fast an attack hits me. All of a sudden my head gets really heavy and things start spinning and I have to be in a lying down position with in about 20 seconds. Gives you no time to adjust and I think that’s why it is so scary. Happy Sunday to everyone and I hope it’s a good day for us.     Candy

      Hello Candy, Thank you for sharing with us. I understand how abrupt these attacks are, I live in fear of what awaits me, My therapists says I shouldn't focus on my next attack, but she doesn't have meniere's disease either. Have a great day

    Good morning. The most distressing symptom for me is the occasional very loud jet engine in my head tinnitus. I wake up panicked and heart thumping. I don’t know how I could live with that all the time. However I have not had a serious vertigo attack for about 6 months and I might change my mind if that starts again. Have a symptom free day everyone.

    Same! I feel dizzy and light headed every day. Sometimes more than others. Having to negotiate day to day activities around the dizzy and light headed. Next is not knowing if its going to turn to vertigo.

    Third is the constant Tinnitus.

    Exact same as Freeze Frame. Dizzy all the time, every day...worried it will turn into the full blown vertigo attack when I need to lie back at the dentist office or at the doc's. Compensating for it continually, always. sad Followed by the constant, piercing tinnitus.

      Hi Mary, I told my dentist I can't lie far back so he adjusts his chair accordingly.

    High to all,

    i would have to say its the anxiety and fear

    of having an M.D. attack or panic attack outside.

    i would pick an M.D. attack over panic attack all

    the time...but both do your head in...

    Being on my own in town if it starts spinning. Happened once & I had to ask where a toilet was and I'm sure the girl thought I was drunk. OH usually with me now and I don't panic as much now. Happy day guys 😀

      That's the reason I have a medic alert necklace saying I have MD and some of the symptoms I might be experiencing.  I never leave home without it.

    My wonkiness, as I call it, has only been made better by seeing a upper cervical chiropractor. Regular adjustments has readjusting my neck and head from the auto accident I had so many years ago. I sincerely suggest you try it. DR. Marcon is on U tube...watch and learn.
