I wanted to say how much these boards have relieved me. I got a horrible cold back in March and pushed through it, commuting on my bike the whole time. Soon after I started getting a lot of dizziness. My doctor said I did in fact have an inner ear infection, put me on antibiotics which I had a horrible reaction to. Then they decided that my anxiety was something different to address, put me on anti-depressants/anti-anxiety which made the dizziness much, much worse. I went off everything and have just been trying to deal with the dizziness by being patient. The doctor told me she is pretty sure I have labryinthitis and although I am feeling progressively better, it still isn't great. Like many of you, this has caused me a lot anxiety and I was beginning to feel like I was losing my mind and no one else could possibly be going through this...and then I found these boards. Everything is there..the weird heartbeat, the disorientation, the frustration. I hope we all feel better in the future and I wanted to say thank you for being out there! I don't feel nearly so isolated as before.
