"I was worried it was all in my head!"

I hear my clients say that usually at least once a week.  So many people who suffer from problems causing spinning are frustrated because the believe others think they are "crazy".  Once we point out that these individuals do have nystagmus and that we can see when their dizziness begins and ends, they are so relieved.  They appreciate being told that their problem is real.  Of course, they appreciate even more having the problem taken away.  So, yes, the problem really is in their head...but it's in their inner ear which is located in their head!
