dizzy

Does your dizziness interfere with your quality of life?  Mine is getting that way.  It's not spinning dizzy, but instead rocking and very unsteady.  I feel sometimes my balance is off too.  I doesn't bother me while sitting down or standing still.  But the moment I begin moving or walking it hits. WEIRD.  

Anyone else??

yeah, me too.  Same thing.  If I move too quickly, I lose my balance a little, but if I'm sitting still or move my head slowly, I'm generally okay.  It's inner ear stuff.

Hi,

I get that way too. Especially when getting up quickly. This happened a lot early on before I knew it was lyme.

Even now, if I get up to soon, I almost pass out. I get this a lot with the symptoms flare.

It could be related to inner ear stuff which controls balance etc.

I hope you can get this checked into. Check with the doctor and see what he says..

I've seen a ENT and Audiologist and I have no inner ear problems.  So supposebly the dizziness isn't caused from that.  I have talked to my LLMD about the dizziness, and he doesn't say much.  He can never explain things to me... except "it's just of it".  Quite frankly, I'm tired of hearing that... sometimes I would like an explanation on to WHY...

Sigh...
