She may never be able to drive if she is diagnosed with severe Menieres disease, or work again, so that part is true (but only if she is eventually diagnosed with Menieres)
When I had vertigo, I needed several MRI scans done on my head, so I suspect these have turned into "brain scans"
However, Vertigo and Labyrinthitis can be cured/controlled with drugs (my vertigo took a few months to totally disappear but the medication helped enormously)
She is still taking this poor bloke for a ride! All he has to do is google or go on NHS direct and find out for himself!

Just seems she's exaggerating, or if she was told that as in a worst case scenario and making out that is the be all and end all if you know what I mean?
I suspect that this woman is lying and trying to make a big song and dance out of something, that is nothing really! You're right, she's exaggerating big style!

Will just have to wait and see again I guess, hopefully sooner rather than later but the cancer story didn't really take all that long to come out of the woodwork. Feel like i'm hitting my head against a brick wall though.
