Hi, All!
Last night when I went to bed I had the normal "rocking" sensation I have been having pretty regular. It actually goes along with my heartbeat. So, I decided to look it up on the internet and came across something called the vertebral artery syndrome. Having this syndrome causes the symptoms of lightheadedness, dizzyness and the pressure in the head when the head moves in different positions. It causes the arms to be weak and numb and tingly at times. It has something to do with the amount of blood flowing to the head which changes as places in the neck are pinched with movement. I suspect that it could be another "thing" provoked by the inner ear imbalance. I read an old post on the Healthboards that said it was good to see a cranial osteopath cause much can be done to help. HMMMM...
Now I have another doctor to seek out and to put on my to do list. Actually, the head position thing is what I am suffering from most right now. I plan on checking this out and would appreciate it if any of you have any information about it!
Hope you are all well and having a good weekend. Going to attempt Sam's and Target today! More than the crowds I fear the flu going around!
Have a good day!
Blessings!
