Ears and Gyroscopes! Why they are the same!

This is a blog to point out why!…. When our balance is comprised we are so debilitated!

This website below gives you a detailed account if the intricacies of the ear and balance mechanism just like a gyroscope!

In conclusion to this video for Ménières and vestibular related illness it is the fluid around the ear that interferes with balance!

Below is how the gyroscope works, is is very enlightening! It shows just how the ears work correctly when both sides of the double gyroscope are going in the correct direction!

However when compromised by a fault ( Ménières or other vestibular issue) it highlights the incapacity of the brains functionality when it comes to balance. In that it just hasn’t the capacity to function in the correct way; in times of distress, during spins, Ménières attack, vestibular migraine! The list goes on!

So there we are! A visual aid to share for how the ears are compromised!

It’s not in our heads! But it is definitely to do with them!

I wish all my fellow spinalot friends well in their own NORMAL world xx

Self Care September

I need to do it…

who will join me?

At this point I am needing something to get some positivity back … so I saw this and thought I would share it with my fellow friends on planet dizzy!

Where everyone lives on a roundabout trying to speak, read, text, concentrate and function in a normal way whilst feeling like a complete Space Cadet!

Yes feeling pretty useless 😖

So here’s hoping this might pep us up a bit… if we were trying to help other, much like I try to reach you spinners out there! Our intention is always to help others feel better… so why are we always calling ourselves? Just as I just have!!

Well we just do, before Ménières we could do so much. Now we can’t! But that is no reason to hurt yourself! Is it?

Self care starts here! Xx

I wish you all the positivity

In the universe!

May your roundabout go in

Right direction! Xx🙏🥰

Why we need the 🌻 #sunflowerlanyard for #invisibledisability

oh you don’t look deaf, er … how am I suppose to look!!!

You can’t see my stomach on spin cycle either! Or that I cannot see probably or balance… or speak properly… I may ignore you in the street as I cannot communicate!

That makes me ignorant… but no that makes you ignorant and uneducated about invisible illness and disability!!!

Rant over!

We go through this all the time that’s why the 🌻 lanyard is so important to be rolled out world 🌍 wide!!! It will make people think before they judge !!! HOPEFULLY 🌻🌻🌻🌻🌻
