I also show these sympthoms when turning in zumba or dancing. Does anyone else suffer from this and if so can you suggest something that helps. I have not mentioned this to my doctor because I thought I would just give up doing these activities but I really don't want to stop playing pickleball. Wondering how common this is and if anyone else suffers. Thanks.
I had BPPV. One treatment by the audiologist, Dr Waldo at Villages Health Mulberry got rid of it. The treatment takes about 15 minutes, is not pleasant, but gets the job done.
