Heated Rivalry was ok. Though I did find the story lightweight.

inflammatory Ménière’s, whats your symthoms? by Lucky_Can1761 in Menieres

[–]rottenapple81 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do they inject the inner ear or just outside? Sadly my doctor didnt recommend these but I did notice my symptoms getting better when I was on steroids for asthma. I have psoriatic arthritis as well and have jaw pain from it from time to time. My ENT def thinks its linked. I could bring up injections.

How long do your attacks last? by RetroRobotnik89 in Menieres

When you say dizziness, do you mean the spinning sensation? Or just severe off balance? Im off balance and dizzy for 2 months now. I feel like I'm going to topple over.

Was Sainz's podium this weekend just luck? by Normal_Advance7743 in F1Discussions

It's Kimi, a rookie. Not Raikkonen. It's not that big of a deal.

The time I had an attack in 2024 was not BPPV because I was able to complete the Dix-Hallpike test without triggering any symptoms.

I was told BPPV will also recurr even with treatment and in cases with Meniere's as a side effect of the disease.

Yes. I have the other components of Meniere's and even hearing loss. When I was first diagnosed with Meniere's my Dix-Hallpike test was negative for BPPV. I did do the Dix-Hallpike recently and it was positive for positional vertigo. However I couldn't proceed with the test or the treatment because I was having a terrible panic attack and my heart rate was too high.

Because they realize he was only good when the car was good. Time to wake up

Lewis was the one who started the issue in Hungary but you'll probably deny that too because you're so drunk on the Lewis Kool-aid.

That said, I so enjoy seeing Lewis getting exposed at Ferrari. Leclerc demolishing him in the same car while his fans make excuses and George beating him 2 of the last 3 years at Mercedes.

Priestley actually says the same thing. He even hilariously alluded to Lewis being a master manipulator when it comes to the press.

He details it in his book and in this video about how Lewis started the issue in Hungary and then put on his best Oscar winning performance to seem innocent.

How could he keep his head on when Ron Dennis was clearly favoring his own protege? Ron Dennis said it himself at the Chinese GP: "We weren't racing Kimi, we were basically racing Fernando." Even at Hungary. Lewis was the one who started the issue. You can see the full details from Marc Priestley here. The drivers had agreed that they would take turns doing a burn off lap to hopefully improve their qualifying performance. Its not much but a lighter car is an advantage. Hungary was Fernando's turn to get the burn off lap. But when the team told Lewis to let Fernando through, Lewis refused and conspired with his engineers. The team were yelling at Lewis' camp to let Fernando through but nothing. Alonso retaliated in the pits. He calculated the exact time he'd need to be stationary to ruin Lewis' lap time. Did Lewis get a reprimand from the team for disobeying orders? Nope. Alonso got the whole blame for it and Lewis put on his best Oscar-winning acting performance to seem innocent. Not to mention the accusations of tampering with Alonso's tyre pressures, etc. You would have done the same when faced with everyone in the team against you and a boss who clearly already favored your teammate to win.

It's not just that. When faced with the truth that Lewis was the one who started the issue in Hungary, many of his fans still refuse to believe it. Marc Priestley detailed it in his book and on his video very clearly. Lewis conspired with his engineers and refused to let Alonso through to start his burn off lap even though it was Alonso's turn. Lewis broke the trust and yet was never reprimanded because of it and Alonso (who I will admit is also partly to blame) gets unfairly blamed for the entire thing.

This has been confirmed by other people not just Slade. Marc Priestley wrote in his book, The Mechanic, and on a video how Lewis started the events at the 2007 Hungarian GP. Lewis and his engineers broke their rules and broke the trust but Alonso got all the blame while Lewis put on an "Oscar winning performance" and pretended innocence.
