So my wife just got struck with this horrible sickness.
You basically told before that their is a medecin that you tested but that it only works on 50% of the people..
Just curious what that medicine is?
All we have been informed about now is some breakfast flake and balance training and not stress/work too much…
Would be awesome with a reply since I kinda want to see my Hot wife in HIGH HEELS AGAIN!
=)
White replied promptly.

I do literally none of that s— but just take the meds. They say if u follow the rules and takes the meds it should really help. I can’t live like that.

I know exactly when it’s coming because my head gets tight and I lose my hearing. That’s the only good part is that I get a warning and can prepare for it. My Dr gives me some shots that help too so When I get the attack I don’t want to dive out of a window. When I was in Canada the shots are illegal there!!! I can’t imagine living there and having this. THAT WOULD SUCK!!!!

MMAJunkie reports that White is about to undergo a surgery with a 70% chance of success.
White was expected to undergo a procedure back in May that would have involved cutting his vestibular nerve to treat symptoms. Doctors ultimately decided against it even though White pushed for it while knowing it wasn’t a cure-all and could require a lengthy recovery period.
“I don’t give a s— what it does,” he told MMAjunkie.com of the latest treatment option. “I just want to do it to see if it works.”
It’s actually a less intensive surgery than the one he wanted back in May, which doctors told him a 50-50 shot of improving him symptoms.
“They actually have this new thing they’re going to try on me,” he said. “The one thing was to cut the nerve, but they’re not going to cut the nerve. They’re going make an incision in the back of my ear, and they’re going to insert a tube. I’ll have a 70 percent chance of this not coming back, which I like better than 50 percent.”
“I’ll be right back the next day,” he said of the surgery.
