My Vertiginous Week

[ry_sabir]

Vertigo sucks.  I'm just going to put that out there.

Tuesday night on the Fifth of January, I went to see Star Wars: The Force Awakens with my brother, who was in town for a visit.  I felt fine after the movie, and through breakfast the next morning.  However, around noon I started to feel a bit dizzy.  I sat down, hoping it would pass.  However

Ry! *very gently hugs*

That sucks with the vertigo. It might come off as boasting, but I knew that you could get PT for ear issues. My mom had a very as a result of her TMJ worsening and her best friend had what was basically an 'ear pearl' that severely threw off her balance before it was discovered.

Still, that is a way to look on the bright side! Do you think you'll go back to that bookstore once you recover some more?

Haha, I'm glad someone knew about it! :D

Oh, I'll definitely go back to the bookstore! It's this weird, hidden gem out in the country, located in a building behind a car lot, so there are always really interesting things to find there.

Hee! Actually, yeah, now you can write about someone on Airlandis getting struck by it! All that air pressure changing can't be good on the ear drums.

Awesome! When you do go back, let us know what you found!

would make a good test for future dragonators - who can survive the constantly changing pressure of going from Airlandis to Old Earth and back again without succumbing to vertigo

True true. I mean, the helmet probably has something like an equalizer in it or they could take medicine to combat it but for a serious case? That'd be rather dangerous.

[strongheartmaid]

I wonder if mutants are naturally immune to it - it would explain why Z doesn't wear his helmet post-mutation

[lovelykitta]

They do have flight (gliding really) capabilities so it makes sense they'd have a kind of built-in equalizing system. Same for the dragons, which then makes even more sense for the mutants to have, given that they're supposed to be half-dragon at least.
