It was what I googled! So there! , but on the info sheet he googled for, it say I have to sleep sitting up for 48 hours!!!!I'll never be to sleep for 48 hours! What's that about?

How ya going to sleep like that?
It was what I googled! So there! The doc made me lie down and put my in some strange positions to dislodge the 'crystals' in my ear; it seems to have worked, but on the info sheet he googled for, it say I have to sleep sitting up for 48 hours!!!!I'll never be to sleep for 48 hours! What's that about?
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!
Paul, if you go to the doc, he'll do some manoeuvres on you that'll shift those naughty ear crystals; its a very common problem. He's sorted mine out by about 70%, but hey, I quite enjoy the 'dizzyness'; it reminds me of having a few drinks and being on a channel ferry crossing. Wor Lass caught me throwing myself round the bed last week (not like that) just so I could get the 'high' from my vertigo! It feels good.
