Docs say since they did not find stroke, tumors and other assorted nastiness, I should be back to normal in anywhere between two days to two weeks. Well, two weeks is not good enough, I want to ride!

Has anybody experienced anything like this?

My wife had something very like that a little over a year ago; they assumed it was some sort of viral inner ear infection. After her really bad night (controlled finally with a lot of IV valium) she took some anti vertigo medicine for a couple weeks and was mostly back to normal in a month or so.
