It turns out to be an inner ear infection which affects you balance and it is almost like being sea sick, so he gave me a drug to take right when it starts to make it go away, when I asked about climbimg rocks and fishing the answer was not the one I wanted to hear. He called it Vertigo. I won't be fishing alone.

Not unless you don't hop up on the widowmaker at Watch Hill with your inner ear infection and a running swell

Been there. Woke up one fine morning dizzy, like I was drunk. Staggered down stairs and threw up. Laid on the couch for a week with the spins. Sucked. I hope it never comes back. Good luck.

Had a boss with the same problem in the early 90's...guy was a saint, and all of a sudden he told me he hated me so much he wanted to punch me (I was a night manager, he was the owner)...turned out they thought it was allergies, then a brain tumor, then finally figured out it was a chronic inner ear infection, put tubes in his ear and he was fine (he was 65).
Also, my ex-wife (hence the term ex) was crazy..on 200 mg of zoloft a day, seeing two shrinks (one with me), she finally left and the day before we were supposed to get divorced, they did a cat scan and found out she had a huge tumor growing all in her inner ear workings.
She almost died from the brain surgery, and is now deaf, but I saw her two days ago while I was walking down the street...she's deaf in one ear, but other than that she's awesome and a great friend to have.
Funny how the inner ear stuff can really rock your world.
Later,
Rick

Bob - glad to hear you are Ok. PI is still producing and you won't have any rocks to fall off of.
I had a similar experiance a few years ago. I was in Maine at my camp and had all the symptoms you have especially the sweats. I soaked the bedding through and through. I didn't get to the sawbones til a week passed and the only reason he could come up with was that I was bitten by deer tics - causing the reaction. By that time most symptoms were gone, but he did put me on antibiotics anyways.
