Bill, I’m so glad you are writing about vertigo and tinnitus. Such a common problem and so easy to diagnose most of the time, very difficult to diagnose rarely. So, it’s both a horse and a zebra. In my practice, I was surprised to discover among the older set how often ear waxy build up was associated with vertigo. Not supposed to be, but is. I hope you’ll write more on this subject. Best, David

Great to hear from you. This one often comes back and you are right. It is easy to recognize. Anyone who has ever had this common problem should file this away.

I remember that my mother, in her late 80's, learned to do this. And it worked. So simple.

It beats waiting four hours in an emergency room

And a four figure bill!

Not in Canada. Government-funded. Just a 12 hour wait (unless for heart - in which case, no wait - but this is vertigo).
