Re: dizzy and scared

Shobha,
That is wonderful news. I can feel your relief all the way over here. lol You can bet you just have a case of Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo (BPPV). If it gets to bad to where it really bothers you, see your doctor and they can do what they call the Epley maneuver that will can get rid of this problem. In fact if you google this you can even learn to do this at home. It works because I've tried it.

Anyway...I am just thrilled for you. Always nice to hear good news.
