Yeah I do, if anyone knows the film Free Solo, about a fella who climbs this rock face El Capitan, when I seen it in the cinema I had to leave for a few minutes, I couldnt take it, I tried hiding under my coat but was aware of getting funny looks.
Its strange with me as seeing other people in situations gets me going even if I'm sitting in a chair safe

Why?

Why would you climb this???
 

I got it bad one day, 1st and only time thankfully because it was awful. I was in the house on my own and the room just started spinning I could barely stand and walk. The other half rings and asks me to come out to the car and help her in with the shopping and the wee boy. I struggled to get to the front door I was like a drunk man stumbling about. I get outside and she shouts up to me in the middle of the street, why the f are you walking like you [Poor language removed] yourself. So I get back inside an she says if you put your head between your legs it helps. It doesn't it made it even worse.

Boss film, if you like the outdoors...

I've had vertigo a couple times, fun stuff... /sarcasm

Thankfully I've been able to counteract it by head positioning every time...it still turns you in to a useless lump, though. Never had to take meds for it since it's never lasted more than half a day.
 
I got it really bad 5 years ago, a friend said try BETAHISTINE tablets off the doctor. They worked a treat. Have had a few minor wobbles just lately but not too bad. Cut out caffeine and reduce salt intake, cut down on alcohol. You can get lots of info off Google and u tube. Good luck.

I was told that Asprin can also bring it on for some reason. I've never touched Asprin since I had it a few years ago.
