I, too have BPPV but haven't had an attack in awhile (knock on wood). It's debilitating! Just take it one day at a time and enjoy the parties. You know what to do. My problem is..I know what to do but I chose not to. Shame on me! =/ Hang in there!

Agreed. This time of year is tough. Easy to get run down and sick.

CrashtestDawnie and Koolbeanz, have you tried the exercise for Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo? My husband has it as well. It has worked for him on most occurrences. Sit on your bed or yoga mat with your feet in front of you as if you were going to lie down. Make sure you have a pillow where your head will land. Fold your arms Mortisha Adams style across your chest, turn your head to the right and slowly lower yourself down until you are lying flat. You may feel like you are going to passout, but you won't. Repeat with your head now turned to the left.

I feel you! I have the same problem. Too many parties. I'm just going to take the hit and 'recover'. I do have a firm date (January 2nd).

of course you can commit to a diet. there's no gun to your head saying you have to eat rubbish at a party.
we are doing a BBQ today for our custys, $2000 worth of food here and im still having tuna rice and veg for lunch.
it's a choice and your choosing to indulge, own it and move on next week 👍

Yes the Epley move helped! Usually I’m only sick for an hour and then I’m back to normal. Monday morning it happened and I was out of balance until 8 pm! I felt fine after a did the Epley move a second time.

Keith I sure Can commit but I really don’t have a big enough desire to do so. I’m a big baby and I’m trading my health for cookies like some kind of junkie 😔
