Thank you for all the information is helps Me to understand what is happening to Me
Thank you for the informative video. I had a pineal cysts and gland removed in August 2023. (Occipital Craniotomy) I’ve been in bed since August as well. My head feels like it’s spinning all of the time and I have very poor balance. Rocking and swaying. Visual pathways feel off as well. I start with a local Advanced Neurological Rehabilitation next Tuesday with vestibular exercises. I am honestly scared I won’t have a way to be cured. Praying for good results. Thanks for your help.
Thank you so much for this video and interview 😭. Am a traumatic car crash survivor almost 7 months ago and hit my head in a rolling car a bunch of times. Diagnosed with TBI and am in Vestibular therapy, the dizziness and vertigo is debilitating. Even just half turning is horrible. Anyway- thank you for this valuable information for those of us who are struggling so hard! ❤️
I can’t pick up or lift anything much right now without major symptoms - even lifting the facet lever creates awful issues. I can’t walk much either etc bc of PCs. It’s really a tough spot I’m in bc has injury but got super sick lost tons of weight and in bed and so my compensation I build up was destroyed.
