My left side is worse than my right. I can stand on my right foot for a maybe 30 sec without swaying, but not my left. My left foot feels like a constant twitching is going on while I am standing there and I sway after a very short time. I can stand nearly as long with my eyes closed on my right foot, but not at all on my left foot, I tip immediately.

As I mentioned once before, when we had a power outage at work and I was in total darkness, I was totally disoriented, my sense of balance was completely gone. I was right next to my desk and my boss's wife was right beside me, she walked me out to the light, by the time we got there, I was totally shaken up. I never felt that disoriented before, not that I remember.

Why do our nerves effect out balance--did I miss something?
