No, sorry to hear Jeff.

Had something similar 14 years ago and used to go dizzy and usually slump down a wall or similar as I tried to steady myself. Inner ear infection. I could here liquid sloshing about in my left ear at that period so just thought it was an infection affecting the balance in the inner ear part. Lights didn't go out but I was totally unable to control any movements as it happened.

Yeah, this is similar - like being non-stop drunk :faint:

Yeah I've had a mild version of it a handful of times. I can usually get away with just going to bed and I'm fine when I get up in the morning but it's not terribly pleasant. If your head is at the wrong angle the world all goes helter skelter!
