trouble with stairs

scotia21 · 07-23-2007, 09:35 AM

I am having trouble with vertigo when I go up or down stairs. It might be because I look at my feet instead of looking ahead but I have to or I am afraid that I will fall. It is almost like my depth perception is "off" and I can't tell where the next step is. very annoying

Scotia - my depth perception was off for quite a while. I still get that annoying symptom every now and then..........but is very infrequent now.

I am having this problem even if I just walk. I hope it will pass.
