I just don't understand it. I had retrained my brain for the inner ear weakness and I was doing fine. I even scraped and painted standing on a ladder, reaching up, and even bending backward.
Then I spent a week with almost no sleep and yes, I didn't treat my body very well. Stress, no sleep, forgot my meds.
I wasn't overly surprised to have some balance problems right at the end. But this is a week later and I still almost fell over walking in the house because the world tilted to the left.
I'm not panicking about it. But I can't for the life of me figure out how a few lost nights of sleep could cause the vertigo to not only come back but to stick around.
