I've had it since June of 2005 so its close to 10 months but I've had other periods that I've went to 100% only to have it hit me again. I'm hoping this time is different.

Also I've been reading alot of people are taking medications. I stay away from them. Many of the drugs have dizzyness as a side effect, so if your already have a problem with dizzyness who knows what it will do. You need to get things right in your head and realize your dizzyness is from an inner ear infection and your not dying or don't have a deadly disease. I take one multiple vitamin in the morning and that is all.

what were you diagnosed with? did you do vrt or anything?

It's been 6 weeks now, even the noises that I use to hear in my ear when laying down are almost gone. Hopefully this is all a good sign. I was diagnosed with VN, my ENG (or whatever that ear test is called) came out abnormal. I use to do those vestibular exercises but not anymore, now I just do regular exercises like elliptical and lifting weights. Also since I got BPPV twice I now do that BPPV manuever once a week just in case. I'm hopeful but you know how this is. It is great to walk around and nothing moves.

Very glad to hear. Gives hope to read about someone getting back to normal.

7 Weeks and haven't been dizzy. Odd thing last night though, woke up with pain shooting through my bad ear. Found it hard to sleep. Was hearing alot of noises in ear also. Didn't know VN could cause pain, maybe BPPV was doing it. Anybody have any ideas if either can cause pain? Today I feel fine, very odd.

Hi NF,

Glad you're doing well in this post. Wondering if almost a month later, you're still doing pretty well?

I've had severe pain to mild pain at the present time all along with my condition. I believe it is nerve damage. Although alot of research says there is no pain with VN, I believe this to be incorrect just like the 4 - 8 week recovery time that is written. Many people who have nerve damage (not just in the ears) have pain and at times severe pain. There are even drugs out there that help this nerve pain. So I believe you can have pain with VN.

Hope you're still doing well. - Gloria
