Another Day.. Another Hospital Appointment

Today was the turn of the Neurologist to examine me again. I saw her about 18 months ago who reffered me to ENT.. this time ENT reffered me to her. Apparantly she now thinks i have Benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV).

BPPV

After reading all the symptoms it does seem about right. She is writing to my GP to let her know and also to perscribe me some very strong painkillers to help with it.

She did mention that because i have the fuzzy head feeling in the back of my head, ( i have said numerous times that i feel as if i want to take a portion of the back of my head out and replace it with something non fuzzy) it could be something to do with my spine as its the very top of the spine where the fuzzy head is.

  1. BPPV was cured for me, by the Epley Manoeuvre. It worked immediately, just like magic!

  3. I hate that fuzzy head feeling. I have sleep apnoea and got a CPAP machine about a month back and that is helping a lot.
