Dizzy Me

Tania Stadsbader wrestled with a balance disorder for 15 years before undergoing surgery that cured her. Professor Floris Wuyts is a scientist specialized in dizziness, working at the Ear Nose Throat department of the University Hospital of Antwerp. He guided Tania in her search for the cure. Both authors look at balance from a different perspective. Tania looks back on her long search for a proper diagnosis, and on the impact of her years of illness. She tells her story directly and clearly, and also gives a voice to many of her fellow sufferers. Floris Wuyts provides an extensive framework on the balance system, from anatomy, testing to 12 different disorders including clinical signs and therapy.
