Dinah I missed this one. One day very early morning woke and couldn't move my head without the mose horrible dizzyness. Had to crawl on hands and knees to bathroom. Then got in bed lay still. When husband woke he took me to the ER they shown some light in my eyes and evidently true vertigo makes the eyes move wierdly. No vomiting thank heavens. They gave me a shot of ativan two mg and antivert. I lay on the couch for over a week and that was when I went downhill and slid into what the doc said was depression. Could hardly move just slept. That was when given my first ad with the benzos. Vertigo is horrible. Phillipa and no idea what caused it but it was three months after the thyroid went???? And when they found the chronic lymes disease active. Horrible experience.
