Thank you very much for your kind thoughts.
I went to see my Physio again yesterday, and shared my concerns that I've had five attacks in about two months, and worried that it may be a symptom of something more serious. He said he had already done in previous visits, tests to confirm that I needn't worry on that score. So that put my mind partially to rest. He also said that he has had some patients who have had five attacks in one day !!
As I mentioned before I have some medication to help prevent sickness and dizzyness. I can't take those all the time though, he also advised taking vitamin D3. This is not specifically to help with the Vertigo, but a general pick-me-up, especially in the winter for lack of sunshine.
My problem would seem to be BPPV, which as you no doubt know is to do with sodium crystals moving around in the inner ear. Today I feel fine, but feel myself walking on eggshells being very careful how I move around, doing my exercises, and avoiding looking at bright lights, which seems to set me off. Not always easy to avoid though.
You have my sympathy and best wishes.
