Case Study – Sophie

This is one Case Study you shouldn’t Miss !
I had my first episode of MdDS when I was 20 years old, after a car trip to our holiday house 1 hour from home (I’d travelled on this same road since I was a child, so puzzled as to why it happened in this instance). The symptoms were relatively mild and lasted for about a month, but I really didn’t pay much attention to it and thought it was just part of the bad anxiety/panic attacks I had been suffering for the year leading up to it. I didn’t experience any symptoms again for at least a year after that. I can’t recall exactly when they returned, as I had a bad episode of the flu in September that year, but can’t specifically remember if the MdDS returned before or after the virus. (more…)
Mal de Debarquement Syndrome (or MdDS) is an imbalance or rocking/swaying sensation often both “felt” and “seen” by the sufferer that occurs after exposure to motion (most commonly after a sea cruise or a flight). Although other forms of travel have been known to trigger it.
