Re: dizzy and scared

I've had dizzy spells for years. Mostly in Spring, because that's when the pollen counts go through the roof here in the Netherlands. They come and go, and nobody ever found a cause. Except for the allergy link. But there's no way to prove this is causing my problems.

Menopause can be accompanied by dizzy spells, and another known cause is small particles in your inner ear. Repositioning your head in a certain way can clear the problem if the latter is causing your problem.

I know it's very hard not to panic once we've had a cancer diagnosis, and I fully understand why your first thought would be that the cancer is back. But it probably isn't.

Hope you get your diagnosis asap and that it is something treatable and totally, utterly, completely benign.

Love

Jacqueline
