Rox,

Yeah, I always think of you while I'm whining about my intermittent little
problem that I have to go out of my way to cause myself.  /grin/  Then I get
really frustrated with myself because I think I should be able to just suck
it up and whip myself into shape...  Whaddaya do?

I'll try the leaning back thing more.  Seems so obvious now that you've
mentioned it, but ...  you know ... D'oh!  Resounding head slap.  /lol/

Tami,

Welcome to my life.  I have an inner ear disorder so dizziness and  
vertigo are everyday reality for me and for Laveau.  I'll tell you  
what helps me.
Leaning back into the harness and walking a bit slower.  Also closing  
my eyes helps sometimes, but for some situations it doesn't, so give  
it a try and see if it helps you.
Good luck! :)

Do not meddle in the affaires of dragons, for you are crunchy and  
taste good with ketchup.
