    Hi everyone, I just registered after years of thinking I can deal with this phobia alone it's got to the point where I am struggling more and more with day to day life. I seem to spend more time Ill these days than not. Ive recently been hospitalised through panic attacks brought on by N and my anti emetics didn't stop it, I had a suspected kidney infection and fever, then two days later I came down with flu and sinusitis and laryngitis. My left ear became blocked for two weeks and just cleared this week and now I have vertigo. It started last night out of the blue, had felt fine all day, was watching greys anatomy in bed when suddenly I felt like I was falling through the bed. My eyes were rolling side to side, I lay on my back and it passed. Then this morning I got up and almost fell over, I had to sit on the bed for a time waiting for it to pass.

    its made me very edgy and panicky and anxious, I don't actually feel N but I'm already starting to panic that I might. My dr has done me a prescription of stemetil which my unsympathetic partner has begrudgingly gone to pick up for me.

    i feel so alone in all of this, I feel he doesn't understand or even want to understand what it feels like to be so scared of a feeling.

    well that's about it for today, when I feel less spinny I will introduce myself properly x

    Bless your heart and welcome. I hope you are feeling better now. Dizzines can be so disturbing. When I'm really anxious I get dizzy sometimes. I listen yo relaxation music and that helps a lot. This forum has a lot of good information. Best wishes.

    unfortunately I'm still suffering, when I am lying down its worse. I am wondering if it's related to the sinusitis and blocked ear I had a week or so ago. I think I need to call the drs again, I just hate pestering them as I always seems to be there with one thing or another these days xxx
