Notice. New forum software under development. It's going to miss a few functions and look a bit ugly for a while, but I'm working on it full time now as the old forum was too unstable. Couple days, all good. If you notice any issues, please contact me.

Hi Crew, Had a scary afternoon Thursday,, Ilda woke from a afternoon nap and all hell broke loose..
She fell over into the bed ,all around her was a spinning mess. She was very frightened, not having VERTIGO before.
After 2 calls to gp ,, called the 000 and an Ambulance came and took her to gold coast hospital,ilda still is a tizz, they gave her an injection and she settled down for the night in hosp.
Doctor explained to us next morning it was fairly common , maybe often or once off.
So , now to see the specialists , to check her out .
Special thanks to the Crew here who sent regards,Thanks
Bruce and Ilda.Bushboy

Hi Bruce
It is a terrible thing and so unexplained as to why it happens.
I wish you all the best for Ilda's recovery, but you may find it will be reoccurring, I had a touch of it when in USA a few years ago and found it was a allergy reaction to Monosodiumglucomate "MSG" apparently the food over there is all laced with it.
Have you been to a Chinese or Asian restaurant in the last few days, or eaten at a food court at some of the shopping centers as they use it heavily, its also in most packaged foods, they have changed the name of it to hide its inclusion.
All the best
