its what the doctor told me today.....

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Benign_paroxysmal_positional_vertigo

and i can tell you, its no fun at all....
imiagine being piss drunk (with the hangover that comes with it the next day included) without having any off the nice bits....

and the only "cure", if you feel its comming up make it a lot (and i mean a lot) worse by knocking your head around so your body learns to cope with it....

this sucks....
ah well, it means i will be spending a lot of time with you guys for the coming days.

Shit that sounds pretty bad. Are you getting treated for it? How did you decide that you needed to go to the doc?

yeah it suck big time, there seams to be no efficient treatment (other than training and riding it out).
i had atacks before over the last few weeks where i got realy dizzy but they all stopped after a few minutes and i blamed being tired and too much cafeine, i decided to go to the doc when sunday night i got an atack but it didnt stop for hours, that shit was fucking scary, i realy thought i had an seisure or something.

damn, i was better and now its started again, and now the doctor is doubting it is what she first thought it was (the BPPV) so now i have to go to a frigging specialist.

my boss an co-workers are not going to be happy
