Hi!
I`m a little bit curious to see if anyone else with M.E. struggles with vertigo. This has been maybe my main debilitating symptom from the very beginning seven years ago. It just started with me feeling weird, like I was sitting in a fish bowl, some weird neurological sensation. Then both vertigo and visual disturbances (visual snow mainly) set in, and that was the major beginning of my M.E. Basically, it feels like I am sitting on a boat, the ground under me bobs up and down, but my surroundings which I am looking at moves in a different way, like they are always moving to the right. It has been like this since I got sick 7 years ago, and not for one seconf have I had a break. I have gotten used to it now and it doesn`t scare, or bother, me as much as it did before, but I would be much less sicker if I didn`t have this symptom. It definitly contributes to the fatigue and the non restoritative sleep and has gotten worse over the years every time I get worse in general. Does anybody else have this? I must say I have heard little about it in relation to M.E. The only thing the doctors can say about it is that they think this comes from the sentral nervous system.
