| Howl_at_the_Moon | 1 days | Debilitating but fixed with sleep and lots of painkillers. Tried Sumagran late on which made me feel terrible, shaky and tingly, hyper sensitive to touch (painful). Will try early on next time. | details |

| JennyJ | 3 days | Migraine | details |
| Howl_at_the_Moon | 3 days | Sumagran and voltaren nailed the migraine before it really got going but still wrecked me for two days. phD has recommended new treatment of maxalt. | details |
| Zippy | 3 days | Likely caused by a pump malfunction in the pool coupled with lots of rain run-off: pool was full over the gutters. Need to stay on top of drying out the ears (vinegar/alcohol) and NOT SCRATCHING when they itch. Ear plugs? | details |

| rastridge | 5 days | lots of icing and painkillers (alternating ibuprofen and acetaminophen), eating soft foods; also had to take amoxicillin as a preventative antibiotic for 5 days (made me nauseous at first, but that just might have been because of sudden huge decrease in food intake because it was so hard to eat) | details |

| slouth | 6 days | It healed up - trying to not get it wet i.e. not playing polo would have helped. | details |

| DWildfogel | 6 days | Ibuprofen muted the pulsating for a couple of hours, though it seemed to take an hour for it to take affect. It finally went away on its own after about 5 days. | details |

| DragonFly | 7 days | I don't know what caused my BPPV, and it came on quite quickly. During the first few days I instinctively limited my movements, but as I understood more about about BPPV, I learnt that exercising the range of motion was necessary to aid recovery. I started doing the recommended exercises and soon after all the symptoms disappeared. I'm not sure if the exercises helped the recovery, or if the vertigo would have cleared up on it's own, but the exercises did provide a good measurement tool on my... | details |

| cfosp1 | 9 days | Really a non-issue. Only took one pain killer the night of the procedure mostly because I was worried I could not sleep. Made me nauseous but I slept. After that wore off, practically no pain. Did not care for eating the first three days but that wore off quickly, too. I am declaring myself fully recovered. | details |

| Mona | 20 days | No real clue: zyrtek, sudafed. Also the weekend (not being at work) helped. | details |
| DWildfogel | 21 days | Not sure when this episode cleared up, but it seemed better by around Dec 23, though I didn't test it until the 27th. | details |

| DWildfogel | 40 days | Diagnosed as Benign Positional Vertigo. Given some exercises that basically amounted to enduring the vertigo half a minute at a time, but the first one was ineffective and never tried the second one. But noticed the other day that I laid on my back without a problem. Today did it intentionally, cautiously at first, but eventually with my pilates mat exercises and was 99% OK. | details |

| DWildfogel | 148 days | This lingered for a really long time, and mostly I just avoided the position. But at Kirby's a few days ago, I noticed I didn't get dizzy when she had me lean back to wash my hair, so I tried lying down on my foam roller a couple of days ago, it was fine. | details |

| DWildfogel | 293 days | In November, started feeling that the dizziness was gone, but was afraid to really test it. Finally did so in early Dec, and it does indeed seem to be gone. | details |
| levitin | 306 days | Time. Although I half-consider the imminent visit to the physical therapist to be curative. Now, if I could only get the appointment scheduled closer to the injury, it would heal faster, right? In the end, it looks like deep tissue massage was the most helpful modality of treatment. Acupuncture, no; chiro, no; PT, not by itself, R+I, no. | details |
