This was a very helpful presentation. I'm dealing with some sort of vestibular problem and the biggest takeaway I've learned is that what makes you dizzy is what will heal you! Vestibular rehab makes you feel dizzy and it's supposed to--it's really difficult to go home and want to do exercises that make you feel worse, but if you just stick to it with a positive attitude it will get better in time. There is hope!

I dealt with BPPV for almost a month, now I'm dealing with vestibular compensation, you just have to re-train your brain so you feel normal again. It has been a really tough time. What most people don't understand is that the dizziness is not what kills you, but it's the anxiety, the stress, the uncertainty, the fear and desperation of waking up everyday and just not feeling okay, seeing things as if you were "high" or drunk. I believe doctors added the "benign" part to its name just so people could relax a little bit. As of today, I'm still dealing with the anxiety and the "drunkness", but everyday I'm feeling a little bit better (with a lot of ups and downs). The secret is to move as much as you can, as one of the comments on this video pointed out, it's doing the things that make you dizzy the ones that will then later make you feel better. So to all going through this horrific experience: be strong, be patient, you will heal, just give it time.

Thank you for this video. It is such an invisible condition with multiple potential diagnoses and treatments. Whoever is unfortunate enough to suffer from it, feels isolated, desperate, depressed and powerless. I lost my balance completely after an acute episode of vertigo and vomiting that left me in a permanent state of "drunkenness" for almost a year. I had multiple diagnoses, I saw private and NHS doctors and they all brushed it off as having poor eyesight or them not wanting to investigate and try different treatments. All I was given was different medications that did not work. Thanks to VRT, I started to get better. I came across it after having tried other exercises to no avail. I know everybody is different but this is what really helped and 10 months into my condition, I was diagnosed with an acute inflammation of the ear canals and I'm still in treatment. However, I am myself again, I leave the house on my own, I'm confident, I feel strong. This is life changing and I wish I would have known about it instead of doing my own research and wasting a year of my life. Thanks again for giving vestibular conditions visibility.

Thapa Kishor I have Vestibular Neuritis which cause me to be continuously dizzy (a rocking sensation like being on a boat), Since doing Vestibular exercises twice a day, every day, the dizziness has improved greatly. My balance and blurry vision has also improved and the shaking sensation I feel inside me has decreased a lot to where I am feeling calm again. If you can't find a Vestibular Specialist in your area, you should ask "Vestibular Disorders Association" for help or find Vestibular exercises on KZfaq. When the vestibular exercises my physical therapist gave me were no longer challenging (increase my level of dizziness to retrain my brain), I found some good ones on KZfaq that have helped me a lot. I wish you the best in finding help and getting well.

I think it would be helpful to the speaker to ask if anybody has other issues that the speaker didn't cover. You might want to collect those issues from your patients if you don't ask for them to provide them to you. For instance, these are mine. 1. It would be helpful to know whether my problem is doe to my eyes, ears, or elsewhere (like the spine and, if so where in the spine, if possible. Actually, I think the word "spine" is itself inaccurate, which needs to be defined much better. 2. Social issues -- do you affirmatively tell someone you want to take out on a date, or a dating site, how do you handle that? I have become a hermit socially, but I don't want to embarrass myself and get turned down. Do people complain that they go out on a Match date and find someone has a vestibular problem and then call Match to complain. I have heard that doesn't happen as they want as many members as possible but perhaps they don't want to piss off their more normal clients. 3. Do you need to ask the thereapist what physical activities do you need to do for the rest of your life, like being able to stand on one foott easily without the symptom of falling down or puttting your second foot down. 4. Lots of people might have different additional items, but they might benefit to read what other people have added. Call me if you want to discuss these items with me. You can find me, I believe.
