I had viral neuritis in my late 20s and could barely walk for the better part of a year. As a ballet dancer I knew my body and balance and could pass every balance test with flying colors and still say “I feel dizzy”. If I’m honest it took maybe more than two years and an entire lifestyle shift for me to feel relatively normal moving in space. I had to give up my dreams and work office jobs while recovering and while I was grateful I worked every day challenging myself to build back to a body I knew, When I started to heal (which was a very long and grueling process) my intense nausea was a whole other battle to contend. I am still balance sensitive but I am grateful I can move daily and keep my body conditioned with the joy moving brings me. I saw many doctors and had many tests and it was just a waiting game as they all agreed it was a matter of time to regrow my little inner ear hairs which took atleast a year. To say dizziness is in your head is an understatement as this is seriously one the most debilitating symptoms of disease and over such a long period of time I was never the same again. You think you’re going crazy because the psychological effects of not having relief of dizziness for over a year is something I wouldn’t wish on my worst enemy. I really hope more research can continue to help people who go through this as it really changes your life like any other debilitating disease.

Balance disorders like vertigo can be devastating for patients—but they’re often invisible to the doctors who treat them.
