When it hit, did it feel like it floated up one side of your body, and ran down the other side?

Last summer, I was getting vertigo that would just hit me out of the blue. No warning before it hit. It felt like it hit me from the left side most of the time. It would come up my left side, spinning up thru my head and then felt like it went down my right side.

By the time the sensation felt like it was going thru my head, I'd be falling to the floor.

I had 2 weeks of oral prednisone, and it hasnt come back. I never want to experience that vertigo again, because I'll be begging for the steroids again, and I never want to have to take steroids again because of all the nasty side effects. Yuck!
