Friday I woke up very dizzy and disoriented. Checking my BP, and finding it high I immediately went to the local ER. I was diagnosed with vertigo and given antivert and HTCZ(BP meds). Of course I had to sit through my wife telling the MD that she thinks it the cigars. Any way its Monday and I am still not right. I have an appt. with an ENT person today and the neurologist Wednesday. Please keep me in your thought fellows and hope for a positive outcome.

I know a couple people that get Vertigo once in a while and I know it is hard. I hope you are feeling better soon. It usually goes away after a few days and you should be back to 100% in no time.

Keep us up to date, we are thinking about you!

Yeah, it's not the cigars. My wife had it a couple months back and she does not smoke at all. Good Luck, I'm sure it'll wear off after some rest.

I hate neurologists. Tests, tests and more tests to tell you what you don't have.

Hope it works out for you dude

I had this for awhile and it was nerve-racking...lay off the salt (or drastically reduce) and your symptoms will subside...what my doc told me and sure enough it worked.
