update pics of my head

Marc St Louis:
First time I hear of this Pat.  Glad you're OK.  I nearly got clonked on the head like that a few years ago, the limb just missed me.

Pat B:
Thanks, Marc. I went to my Dr last week and he gave me some exercises for the dizziness. After 3 sessions of the exercises the dizziness disappeared. I'm on my 12th session now. I'll talk to my Dr today to let him know how well it worked.

sleek:
What are the exercises? My wife got a concussion years ago, She cant bend over to 90° without getting dizzy.

Pat B:
Kevin, have her look up "Dr Jo, vertigo exercises" on youtube.
basically you lay on your right side and turn your head at a 45 deg angle for a 30 second count, then sit up straight for a 30 second count then lay on your left side with your head at 45 degrees for a 30 second count. Do 5 reps of these, twice a day. There is a little bit more but she explains it better. I was amazed how quickly it worked for me with only 3 sessions. I'll be at 13 sessions when I do them tonight and will continue for a while.

Dang Pat, just now seeing this. Sure glad it wasn’t worse than it was. Looking like it’s healing up good though.  Hope you keep making progress with the concussion.
