it´s been a while since my last post... and i was doing fine- still twitching every day (for over two years now), but most of the time i really don´t care about that.last saturday morning i had a bout of severe vertigo with all side effects- palpitations, nausea and vomiting, cold sweat... it made me run so scared and , boooom, full blown anxiety is back.on one hand i know that it is nothing serious- i had a very tensed neck on the left side, pressure on my left ear, vertigo started when i wanted to turn in bed... my husband ( who is a physician) just shrugged it off- maybe a viral infection, maybe positional vertigo or because of my tensed neck.. he was not impressed at all.but for me it was a real horrortrip, i rarely ever felt so miserable.that´s why, on the other hand, i think there must be something wrong with me. since then i feel somehow lightheaded and dizzy, like i did in the early stages of bfs. twitching increased (as always when i´m stressed) and tongue twitching is back- yippee :) . so- i feel a bit stuck in this circle of dark thoughts, twitching and anxiety...., just had to vent a bit.... but any thoughts would be appreciated!!
 
Hi Sylvia, I also suffer from vertigo a lot, especially when I move my head..I think at least for me it is a bit influenced by my neck/shoulder issues I have since I got BFS. What hels me a bit is warm wraps like thermacare, but since acouple of days I feel dizzy and have a headache every day. The doctor I will be seeing is treating people with Fibromyalgia /CFS-BFS/IBS and other strange stuff and also vertigo. He sais like all those diseases the problem is a hyper vigilance to inputs on our nerve system, and like people with Fibromyalgia feel pain that is not real because they get wrong symptoms, and as people with BFS feel tingling and numbness and get twitching because of messed up nerve signals, in vertigo the equilibrium organ gets "false" nerve inputs that make us feel dizzy.Here is the home page, unfortunately is is anautomatic google translation from Emilyomouse to emglish which is really crappy, but perhaps you will be able to understand what he it trying to say.
 
Very comon for anxiety, but also benign positional vertigo which your husband explained. There are some manuvers that you can do at home to remove the canolith should that be the problem.
 
Hi Sylvia, hey, there are more Emilyomouses on this board than I thought :) I will let you know for sure if the treatment helped me. My brother-in-law is from dresden.
 
It could be tense neck, anxiety, low blood sugar or adrenal fatigue/exhaustion. I am suspecting I have a adrenal fatigue which could be causing my symptoms too.
