Trig I feel the earth revolving under my feet

After a very minor accident in which I had no obvious trauma. Two days later I began to experience disequilibrium for which my wife took me to the hospital. About an hour later I could not walk at all. This persisted for three days after which I could walk only with a cane. I had to stop taking certain medicines which produced dizziness. I had taken them for years without difficulty but I can no longer do so.

I took MRI and CT scans in the hospital and in the office of a private neurologist. I have a pronounced asymmetry in my vessicles and some hydrocephaly neither of which is supposed to affect me.

I get along ok but if I close my eyes I will fall down. I cannot walk in tandom. I cannot stand on one foot. I certainly cannot participate in some activities I used to do. However, if I take anxiety meds I cannot walk at all.

This is not the worst thing that has happened to me by any means but it has been a mystery to the doctors........and I am uneasy with being a medical mystery.

Anyone else have something like this?

Shasta
