Vestibular Neuritis-Extreme

by Dave Yank, Aug 26, 2007 12:59PM
I have been suffering from extreme Chronic Vestibular Neuritis for more than a year and a half. It is always present but the intensity varies according to what seems to be a 6 to 8 week cycle. A few days ago while simply walking across cobblestones I had a ferocious attack that did not leave me so much dizzy as it weakened my entire body and when I got back to the car I was sweating and shaking so profusely it felt like malaria. The last time that happened was in the doctors office getting my motion test, where they strap you into a chair and cover your eyes in total darkeness then move the chair around, it was to be a three hour test but they had to stop after 15 minutes I was so sick. No nasua either though. Sometimes it feels like my entire nervous system is going to collapse and I barely have the strength to move, yet the world does not "spin" around in any traditional vertigo sense. Yet it has been diagnosed as chronic vestibular neuritis. What gives? Is this morphing into a kind of MS? Anyone out there with something similiar?
