So you have a link to the Drs demonstration?
Have had various levels of vertigo since Christmas
Does it work for motion sickness?
I hope as we as a country get smarter and wiser, we start using natural remedies instead of drugs, drugs, drugs...
That's what the doctor prescribed for my husband and yes it does work. There is no way in the world he could get down to start doing a summersault.
A few years ago, I was having vertigo a lot. Best I recall,
I read on the net to increase my protein intake. So, I
increased my red meat, fish, cottage cheese, eggs, bacon,
etc. Vertigo went away. (It’s not necessary to go crazy
with this; but I do believe it helped. I suppose it is
possible to eat too much protein maybe.) I haven’t had
vertigo in a very long time. - I also ate more nuts, kept
pecans halves in the freezer and ate a handful for a meal or
part of a meal - also raw sunflower seeds.
25 years ago I had my first bout with calcium inside the inner ear. The doctor back then suggested the same exercise, but you laid your head off the back of the bed and jolted forward.
What is old is truly new again :-)
But it does work and is a relief to have something help.
Would you please describe the half summersault position?
Twinkie, did you have Meniers, or a viral Labyrinthitis? Just curious, as I have the latter, and so far only steroids help the flare-ups.
Youre rolling over in bed and suddenly youre hit with this incredible spinning and you see the room going around like youre in the inside of a washing machine, Foster said.
...
First time it happened to me I thought I was dying.
Sometimes this maneuver works for me, sometimes it doesn’t. Meclizine is commonly prescribed. It can be found in some seasickness pills like Bonine. Or you can ask for it at the counter of the pharmacy. I’ve been told that they have big bottles for less than $10.
I’m not much on doctors. - Vertigo was not simple
dizziness. No real way to describe it. - Best I can
remember, I found on the net where my diet wasn’t too
sufficient on protein. I just increased my protein every
meal by a little bit. Too much protein is as bad as not
enough.
Thank you Ron! I am not suffering from vertigo now but I have in the past. I am going to book mark this.
I emailed the video to my doctor and he loved it! Next time it happens, I know,exactly what to do. I think allergies play a role but that just me.
