My neighbors had to hold me...

My neighbors had to come over and hold me sometimes when I felt dizzy or a vertigo siege coming on... The room would start spinning, my heart would be spinning and I would call them. At first. They wanted to call an ambulance because it was so scary for them...

I told them no, but to please hold me, hold my hand in case I started my vertigo dance. The vertigo dance is not one you want to learn. You feel out of control,you start fish flopping and I am afraid I might hurt myself. So she would just hold my hand, talk to me, just being there as I was flying, spinning,whatever the dance of the day would be....

Oh, and did I mention I always take a Xanax which helps tremendously...

Eventually, it passes, survived another vertigo dance....
