As a person who had a spell with vertigo about 5 years ago, I heartily agree. There is no pushing through vertigo. You put your head down and look at something that is not moving and wait for the world to stop spinning. I've had to call people for rides, too.

On second thought, just learn to take care of yourself, winge-bag!
