Summary

Cedar 46283 has had ME for forty years, with vertigo as one of the first symptoms after contracting CFS following measles. Betahistine helped the vertigo a bit for years, and discovering BPPV on YouTube virtually cured it in about half an hour. They still have ME. They have had seven COVID vaccinations and say vaccines do not make ME worse.
