Thank you, Glynis.............. My main worry is possibly losing my hearing over time!

The vertigo was a bit of a shock but trying to get my head it, that is when it stops spinning! True worrying about isn't going to change the outcome.

Do you manage to lead a normal life with it? I imagine it varies from one person to another. Still, wait and see is all I can do atm! Take care. Carol.
