[QUOTE="AprilH, post: 131937"] Hey Sandman- I have Positional Vertigo also...the spinning attacks are a blast, aren't they?! I have gone several times to my son's Doctor and asked for him to be evaluated for sleeping problems; whether or not they are a side effect of his medications, I don't know, but he snores very loudly and his father snores also and has Apnea/OSD. His incompetent doctor's are still giving me the brush off and saying that he will grow out of it, and that he is fine...I call BULL**** on that one. I just got back from his psychiatric. appointment and managed to get once a week visits lined up instead of just once a month YAY! A victory for once! I have a cousin related to me through marriage and she is one year younger than me. She has extensive mental health issues, was homeless for about three years and finally came home to my Aunt's house after being missing for all those years, but last week she had a setback and had to be rushed to the hospital because she drank a bottle of bleach...I don't want that to end up being my son.
