<p>In April 2015 I suddenly found myself getting dizzy as I bent down – to the extent where I actually fell over at one point. I went to see a doctor but didn’t get a diagnosis.</p>
<p>A medical student I know suggested it might be <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Benign_paroxysmal_positional_vertigo" title="Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo">BPPV - Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo</a>, and with that in mind I researched it and found what turned out to be a cure.</p>
