Thanks Azz, and you know me, in times of deep stress, it's always best to try and find the humerous side (if you can of course!)

Thanks aliwin, yes it seems to have worked for me, if only to confirm to them just how painful this has been, and where I said it was too, not where they thought it was! Hopefully they'll make a note of that and listen tome in the future huh?!

i get panic attacks if im crowded in. so id have to be sedated. im due at the hospital tuesday (vertigo) so im seeing an ENT guy. and my gp said he will want to do a scan on my head. so if its one of them ones GIVE ME DRUGS NOW !!!!!!!!!!!
i hope they can sort u out it sounds very painful.
Yes, I read all about you and your vertigoand you have my deepest sympathy, coz I had that too, well so they said anway! My own doctor insisted twice that they give me a scan when I ended up in hospital on both occasions when it suddenly came on, both times I could stand or walk I kept falling over, I didn'tknow which way was up, and I saw numerous docs and specialists at the hospital during those times, 3 of them wanted a head scan, and for 5 days I actually had the words SCAN written on my headboard, but did I get one??? Nah! They sent me home with a "live with it" packet of pills for meniere's disease which I never had so they never worked! I hope you get a result and get yours, and now that you know what to expect when you're in that big tunnel you won't be quite as scared as I was! If I were you, and it looks like you won't be getting a scan, I'd start telling a few little porkies, i.e. you have bad headaches, you see stars etc. it could work! Good luck, and please let us know if you get it, I for one would be very interested!
