Got a great hair cut for $5.99

Oh, MW that is so awesome. The person I knew who had PT for the same condition had to go quite a while. You be faithful about those exercises, okay?

GG, definitely! The exercises take no more than 2 minutes and I'd say they are quite worth doing them every day. I was told I could get away with 2 - 3 times a week but daily is best. They're so simple, too. PQ, it may very well be what I have, although I haven't heard of fainting with it. I was told it's quite common, although it's more prevalent in people 60 years old and over. It was so bad for me initially that I felt nauseated but that passed once I found a position for my head where the vertigo was almost non-existant (all the way to the left, my BPPV is in my right ear, I found that out after being tested at PT). If your daughter can find a position for her head where the vertigo is lessened or gone and if she's still dizzy when she closes her eyes, I'd say she definitely has BPPV. If she gets no relief no matter what position she puts her head in, then it's probably vertigo from another cause. Is she very stressed? Oh! The first thing the EMT did to me was an eye test. My eyes were jumping all over the place which I was told was an indication of BPPV. If this happens to your daughter again, make her follow your finger to the left and to the right, up and down, while holding her head in one position and only moving her eyes. If her eyes "jerk", it most likely is BPPV. I found the home exercises online (just do a search for BPPV), although I got a copy of them from my therapist. Your daughter could try them herself or she could go to her doctor about it. I would have tried the exercises myself before going to my doctor, then physical therapy, but it's much easier to do the exercises after practicing them with the physical therapist. Good luck finding the cause because then a cure can be found or at least a temporary "fix". I definitely sympathize with her because it is a horrible thing to go through!

Hi again MW. Sorry I didn't get back right away. My daughter's eyes jump too when she has the dizzy spells. Her husband says her eyes twitch. I've not seen it because I just font see that well. The time she went to the doc she wasn't dizzy and her eyes weren't twitching so she didn't diagnose her with vertigo. I'm glad the maneuvers work for you. I want to study up on them so I can help my daughter or see if they help. Thanks.

Had you shopped at Overstocked.com through Big Crumbs you would have gotten back 5% of all you spent. Yes Overstocked is one of Big Crumbs affiliates so we buy and get cash back.

Wow! You did really good! I'm glad you could do that for your wife. I'm never very lucky finding bargains online. However, I learned from my daughter to shop at overstock.com. She gets really good bargains.

Congratulations! I'm so happy for you. I hope I can begin to save for a car. No more debt for me. I got out if debt last summer and vowed not to go in debt again. I can't afford it really. My writing is beginning to pay off big time for me now, so I hope to save $100 or $150 a month to try and get a decent vehicle. I would love an SUV also. My page views have doubled on yahoo so now I am making $9 and change a day. I've been with them for 5 years now and it's just recently doubled since I started tweeting my articles. I've been facebooking them and did well, but now I'm doing much better. I hope u can get a car too. I hate having to rely on SIL for a ride anywhere.

Yep! I really felt good too. I washed my hair today and my daughter out the volumizer in fir me and blew my hair into the style the beauty operator did for me. My daughter will do it for me for Christmas Day also.

Glad you found it!

Yes, I'd say you did get one big bargain with that dress. I'm glad to hear about when people find great deals.

It was wonderful. I felt so pretty when she finished with me. She said to use volumizer in my hair and I told her I still have some from last year still. I said this could be my Christmas present. She said that's not my present. I think she is giving me a gift card.

I sure did love it. If my daughter gets another coupon in the next couple of months I will use it if she doesn't want to use it.

It does give you a lift. For sure.

Thanks. I'm doing really good right now. I feel so good I forget to take my breathing treatments. I see a pulmonologist every 3 months now. I'm still on oxygen part if the time, but I spend much more time off it than on it.
