Vertigo a go go

Escher Never suffered an attack of vertigo?  Then take a trip to the otolaryngologist I was referred to a few weeks back.  I mean this guy treats vertigo patients and his office building is set up like a damned Escher painting.  Strange twisting and turning flights of stairs going nowhere.  It was truly bizarre.  What the hell is this doctor thinking?  Is this some kind of job security measure?

I can't wait to see what kind of architectural torture awaits me at the neurosurgeon's office. *sigh*

Hi Gimpy - the Escher picture perfectly shows the nightmares I walked through when a very young child. A premonition of Meniere's to come in adult life. I am catching up with blogs and am very sorry to have missed your earlier posts - I am thinking of you daily.

Mumpy, I have been in a wheelchair practically all my life, and at only 5'1" I am sitting very close to the ground. I have a friend that is 6'10", and my father is 6'5". I wanted to know what it felt like to be 6'10", so I ask another friend with a fork-lift to hoist me and my wheelchair high enough to equal 6'10". I had never experienced Vertigo until that day. I almost passed out, and got so sick that I eventaully threw-up after he lowered me to the ground. It was an interesting experience.
