Translation of Video
Dr Sreejit narration – first 1 min 14 sec
”On 17 may first time severe vertigo, even on looking sideways, looking downwards and upwards, looking straight all these caused vertigo, sense of loss of balance, I forgot to take camera that day to work, this feedback is after 2 days of first arrival day”. Perhaps vertebro basillar insufficiency or positional vertigo.
Patient’s narration from 1 min 23 sec
”You had massaged behind the ear on the pit (demonstrated by her is the varmam that was pressed called Chevikkutri) I had relief the same time itself before going from dispensary. It was very difficult for me to bend my neck forward and also sideways looking too was difficult causing vertigo, I was in vertigo even while walking into dispensary. On sunday 16 th may (2010) I was losing balance as if going to fall down and burning sensation/ acidity in stomach .It was a massage that did not last even 2 minutes. No herbs were used. ”
Dr Sreejit once again expresses his regret for not having carried his camera.

Dr Sreejit asks ”do you recollect you had unsteady gait and came in may 2010? I am just evaluating it.
Patient replies ”yes I do remember, it was so difficult to come here but after the massage behind ear I went back without any help. Till now it has not recurred even once. That day I was in a situation when even lieing in the bed would cause vertigo as if I am rotating but no blackouts. Other people or other things were not rotating though.I was helpless to do any activity.It had started all of a sudden but only thing I can relate is that I had a strong head injury one month prior to it with blood oozing out and needed 3 sutures for it .
