Episode 29
What if a simple family holiday could turn your world upside down? Join me, Julie, on this week's episode of Far Too Fabulous as I recount a profound experience from a recent vacation in Spain that led to an unexpected medical journey. Picture playing in the waves with your child, only to be hit by a massive wave that leaves you battling severe vertigo later that evening. Initially attributing it to a bit too much holiday cheer, I soon discovered the real culprit was Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo (BPPV). This episode reveals the intense daily struggles of living with this condition and underscores the critical lesson of seeking medical advice when confronted with unusual health issues.
But the journey doesn’t end there. I also explore the importance of not taking a single diagnosis at face value. Despite getting a BPPV diagnosis, I sought further opinions and eventually found relief at the Dizzy Clinic in Southend. A specialist there identified a concussion-like effect from the holiday incident, leading me down a path of targeted exercises and treatments that helped me regain my balance and well-being. This episode is a testament to resilience and the power of exploring multiple medical perspectives and complementary health options when traditional treatments fail. Tune in for an inspiring story that encourages empowered choices in your own health journey.
