[QUOTE="JimCSHO, post: 15581411, member: 183032"] The last attack before deciding to go for the surgery happened at the office. I was talking to a couple of people in the hallway, nothing out of the ordinary. That's one of the problems, the attacks come usually with no warning. The only indicator we ever determined for a major attack is that usually my hearing would be all screwed up the day before and it would be like I wasn't even wearing my hearing aids - but even that wasn't a good predictor. Turned the corner to walk to my office and everything started to spin. I had to grab the counter to get down the rest of the way to my office before I fell over. After a half hour I could not get control of it - tried going to the drinking fountain to hydrate and dilute the sodium level. Almost fell again going back and was walking holding a hand against the wall so I could move down the spinning hallway. Got to my desk and sat down - still spinning. Another 15 minutes and there went the breakfast banana in the waste basket (luckily I was able to grab it in time). Then I started sweating profusely. My next thought was get outside and get some fresh air - tried to get up and realized that I was not going to be able to stand up and passed out on the floor. I came to with all the staff standing in my office and EMT on the way. Even in the ambulance on the way to the ER I was spinning. The spins didn't stop until about 5 hours later when they released me to go home. That next day I called my specialist and said "tell me about that surgery you mentioned last year" [/QUOTE]
