I have peripheral neuroitis.
This basically means that I’m dizzy 24/7. I got sick last Thursday, went to the Doctor Friday, and my ears were still hurting Monday morning. I went to the ENT Monday morning and thought I had some kind of horrific inner ear infection. As it turns out, a viral or bacterial infection can cause the nerve by your inner ear to become inflamed. The nerve does not understand when my head is moving or not moving, so it does not know what to tell my brain, so I’m dizzy which is made worse by moving my head. The dizziness is also causing nausea, and I’m not thinking very clearly. This could last for two weeks, and I could have spells for 6 to 8 months. THIS SUCKS! I’m going to try to start working out next week if I can.

I’m sorry. That does suck. I hope you get better soon.
