Just the opposite for me. I'm usually fine in the morning, and about an hour later it's starts and progessively gets worse throughout the day.

Hmmm the minute i open my eyes I am dizzy, things are jumping, then I sit up and have to sit there for 3 mins to get my balance. After about 15mins of being up I feel prob the best. By evening, I am much worse. xxx

Hi,
I seem to feel fine when I wake up, my imbalance seems to start when I am up and about and doing things.
Emsybobs, can I just ask you what visual disturbances you get with this? I seem to get a bit of a "shift" thing going on if that makes any sense, only very occasionally. Freaked me a bit when it first happened, how can the ears do this to the eyes? Just one more question, what exactly is the crackling sound we hear when swallowing? My mum says she can hear that too and she doesnt have Lab.
Cheers

Visual disturbances...mine started after a flight in Aug as Lab has created motion intolerance...I get shifting of the room slightly, jumpy eyes, ship feeling, moving ground. It is all because of dodgy signals being sent from the inner ear to eyes. They conflict.
The cracking is the eustacian tubes opening and closing. Yes "normal" people can hear them but Lab patients more so often cos of scarring on the tubes and slight eustacian tube dysfucntion xxx

When I FIRST get up, I am fine, but within fifteen minutes to half an hour of being up, is when I have most of my episodes. Tummy, Do you have spinning vertigo or an "off balance" dizziness? I get vertigo/spins and double/shifting vision. As the years go by (2 now), I'm also getting some episodes in the afternoon and evening that I never had at the beginning. Penny

Actually, now that I think of it.... I really feel bad when Iget into work... most of the time thats about 2 hours after I wake up... I usually feel bad throughout the day... until I get home maybe..... But when I wake up, I am usually groggy and tired so I am in a daze anyway

I am the same. Most mornings I wake up feeling fine, almost normal. But, the longer I am up the worse I feel. I don't have vertigo, just the off-balance lightheadedness. There are days that my vision goes haywire too.....the illusion that counters are moving, etc. The end of the day is ALWAYS the worst for me, once 5:00 rolls around, I can feel it getting worse. :dizzy: :(

Actually my worts spinning episodes, beginning with that strong one of 2004, were exactly at waking up, and they started to recede as the day went on.
But... now that is not a rule, I could either wake up a little bit off, and later that day or way into the night(sometimes even late night) everythings hooks up and I feel fine, or(and I think this is even more common), I wake up fine and trhough the day I started to get off, and sometimes at night, just before I went to bed, I get this awful jumping vision(mostly at dark) and an Increased "off" feeling.
Can't tell you for sure why does this change..

Wow, this is my problem too…is it Benign Positional Vertigo or something else?
I find that maybe once every few months or so, lately (in the past 3 or so years…before that, ever since I was 10 it came every year or so) I wake up and am fine but then when I get up, immediately I feel weird…like, the world is all spinning and turning, and it feels as if I’ve been spinning on the spot and then lying down and it all spins, you know? After a while it goes away and it’s fine, but then when I get up, it feels like there’s this pressure on my head or in or around my head that’s pushing me down and to the left…and when I sit up, I have to sit still for a few minutes for it to go away (but it never does completely) and then when I stand or try to walk, I fall over or into walls and I can’t walk properly basically.
It goes away throughout the day, and I feel normal again, like I’m anchored to the world again as opposed to floating or being detached.
What is the Epley Manoeuvre? Is this vertigo thing caused by crystals in the ear? I have mild Tinnitus as well…is this related?

I think there are a lot of things that cause this but some people can be helped with the positional therapy. I unfortunately can't but the jumping vision is something about the beats of the eyes - I think it can be checked with an ENT easily with special glasses that show the doctor the eye twitches. I would recommend seeing an ENT if you are suffering with this shifting vision. I was told it is a long recovery from vestibular nephritis, my case was severe. The brain has to learn how to compensate for the loss of a nerve.

My violent vertigo always starts and is at it's worst when I get woken up by spinning in the middle of the night or my awaking in the morning. Still going to the docs to figure this stuff out. Been happening for 4 years, off and on.

I am still use 2 or 3 pillows to sleep in a more upright position which helps a little.
