4. Even though our D-Backs were eliminated from the playoffs, we had a good run and are now rooting for the Tigers! (pic is from last year's World Series).
5. My exercises for my vertigo are finally working.
All are welcome to share! 🖤❤️🖤
Amiable As a fellow vertigo sufferer, I feel your pain. What exercises are you doing? Are they habituation maneuvers or are you treating an episode? 11h
dabbe @Amiable The habituation ones. I hate doing them because they bring on the vertigo, but after a while they do seem to snap those crystals back where they need to be. I also have eczema in both ears, and I think I cause the onsets when I itch them (Q-tips are NOT my friend!). It\'s a vicious cycle I\'ve contended with for almost 30 years now. 😑 I\'m sorry you suffer from it, too. 😞 11h
IndoorDame I‘m so glad to hear your exercises are working! 💙💜 11h

Amiable @dabbe Are you doing Brandt-Daroff? Or others? I saw an ENT at the Yale Balance Clinic and he told me to start doing B-D but when I first tried them I started getting that “swimmy” feeling and I panicked and stopped. I‘ve had vertigo episodes so bad they‘ve put me in the ER on two occasions so I avoid anything that might trigger another one. Vertigo is the worst feeling! So hard to describe to people who haven‘t experienced it. Ugh. 10h
dabbe @Amiable I\\\'m not sure. I have a well-worn printout that my doctor gave me years ago, and it just has exercises on it with no names. They all bring about that swimmy feeling, and I absolutely hate them, but if I can withstand the nauseous dizziness until it goes away, it does help. Do you get it so bad that if you even turn your head too quickly that feeling comes one? ⬇️ (edited) 10h
dabbe When people ask what it feels like, I tell them if they\'ve ever been so drunk (like in those good ol\' college days) where the room swims all around them before they puke, then that\'s what it feels like! I feel your pain, sista! I\'ve gotten pretty good at moving my head slowly at all times to avoid it. Now I just have to stop putting Q-tips in there when my ears itch! 😂 10h
Mimi28 I hope all of you feel better soon 🫶🏽😊🩷 9h
