o/~ Good morning, good MOR-ning o/~

Steve woke up this morning with the same dizziness, headspins, and resulting nausea that mysteriously oppressed him ten years ago. On that occasion, he went to a whole raft of doctors and a whole raft of tests, none of which figured out what his damage was; it spontaneously vanished a few weeks later. Fortunately, with today's advanced intarwubs, I have been able to give him the comforting news that it's almost certainly BPPV, which means that he's not got brain cancer or anything terrifying, and the doctors can fix it.

While engaged in this research, Beth called with her head gone asplodey, though for psycho-emotional reasons. Need to make a bit of time for decompression with her today.

On the bright side, I feel as if I'm fighting off whatever lurgy sweh was coming down with last night. (I hope he has too! Because we have Plans.)

Sorry that Steve wasn't feeling well. I had never heard of BPPV before so followed the link. So is he going for the upside-down treatment?

Well, he's going to call the doctor in the morning & make an appointment, and we will see what she says. She is generally pretty hip to stuff so I'm hoping she can either perform it or direct us to someone who can without a lot of hemming and hawing.
