For the past few days I've been having dizzy/light headedness; some pretty bad.
It normally happens when I bend down and stand up; and on Monday (I worked) it wasn't much fun bending down to adjust a hose and then starting to WFP and then get all 'dizzy'.
It gets quite bad when I lie down, just for 10 seconds or so, the room spins like mad and I haven't been drinking (honest). Wor Lass suggested it was vertigo, but I called her 'Welsh' (aka stupid) because I'm not scared of heights; I've done a two-week free-fall parachute course, how could I have vertigo, FFS?
So I thought it was a dodgy heart or a brain tumour or something, but after a some googling - DIY internet diagnosis is brilliant - I found that I do in fact have
Benighn Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo.
How cool is that?
At least it's not a dodgy heart or a brain tumour!
