#benign positional vertigo

[aami98]

So anyone with meniere's disease finding it difficult to use earbuds. Do you guys have any alternative that could work? I have been recently diagnosed and using earbuds just aggravate my vertigo and tinnitus.

Being diagnosed a dizzy bitch is so stupid. Like sorry you live your life as if you're failing a field DUI test. Yeah it's because the wet stuff and crystals in your ears are wrong. Lamest wizard curse of all time

They should invent a BPV that kicks in when I want to overeat instead of when I want to exercise

It always takes a day or two for me to realize I've got benign positional vertigo again. Just lots of "wow, why am I so dizzy? Why am I nauseous all of a sudden, but only when I am moving?" Which is probably why my brain puts Lonely Island's "I'm on a Boat" on repeat once I figure it out. "wow, why am I so dizzy?" "I'M ON A BOAT" "oh yeah, that'll do it"

my bpv is so weird i dont even have to move for my head to be like ……………….AH.AH……. wooshing in my ears for less than a second. it happens so fast it pretty much doesnt affect me but it does get annoying when its more frequent like today. its like exploding head syndrome but when im awake and less like an electric shock and more like water rushing through my head

Hearing Loss, Vertigo and Fibromyalgia?

Yesterday I went to get new hearing aids fitted. I lost 40% hearing in my right ear 11 years ago following a flight to America. On coming into land, I experienced intense pain in my ear, much much worse than usual landing pain. Throughout the holiday that ensued my son, then 11, kept asking me if I had gone deaf as he had to continually repeat himself. The fact was, I had and I have never…

What Causes Vertigo & Dizziness

What's the difference between Vertigo and Dizziness?

Vertigo and dizziness, are symptoms rather than a disease. They do differ subtly with dizziness a potential symptom of someone suffering vertigo.

People often use the word "dizziness" when they are talking about a variety of symptoms, including:

Vertigo (a feeling of spinning or whirling when you are not actually moving). 

Unsteadiness (a sense of imbalance or staggering when standing or walking). 

Lightheadedness or feeling as if you are about to faint (presyncope). This may mean there is a heart problem or low blood pressure. 

Dizziness caused by breathing too rapidly (hyperventilation) or anxiety. 

What Causes Vertigo?

Vertigo refers to the sensation of spinning or whirling that occurs as a result of a disturbance in your balance (vestibular) system. Vertigo may be used to describe feelings of dizziness, lightheadedness, faintness, and unsteadiness. 

The sensation of movement is called subjective vertigo and the perception of movement in surrounding objects is called objective vertigo. 

Vertigo usually occurs as a result of a disorder in the vestibular system (structures of the inner ear, the vestibular nerve, brainstem, and cerebellum). Your vestibular system is responsible for integrating sensory stimuli and movement and for keeping objects in visual focus as the body moves. 

When your head moves, signals are transmitted to the labyrinth, which is an apparatus in the inner ear that is made up of three semicircular canals surrounded by fluid. The labyrinth then transmits movement information to the vestibular nerve and the vestibular nerve carries the information to the brainstem and cerebellum (areas of the brain that control balance, posture, and motor coordination). 

The good news is that most vertigo symptoms will be eased by vertigo exercises.

For more information, please ask one of our vestibular physiotherapists.

What Causes Dizziness?

One of the most common causes of dizziness is BPPV (Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo). 

Others common causes can include: inflammation in the inner ear, Meniere's disease, cervicogenic dizziness, vestibular neuritis, vestibular migraine and acoustic neuroma. Rarely, vertigo can be a symptom of a more serious neurological problem such as a stroke or brain haemorrhage, which is why you should investigate what is causing your vertigo or dizziness. 

We urge you to seek the advice of your health professional.

For more information, please ask one of our vestibular physiotherapists.
