I'm hoping someone out there has seen this before and can help with diagnosis. My 2 year old daughter has experienced vertigo(lasting several hours on each occassion) three times now. Always seems to be near the end of the month, like the last two times were on the 19th of January and February of 04. She lays her head down for quite a while then trys to get up and walk, and falls down or holds on to stuff to move with very little confidence. Again this only lasts for at the most like 8-10 hours, then goes away, usually not to resurface for quite a while. Her diet is pretty good, she eats just about anything, though we have seen her diet lessen a little over the last 8 months. She has not had any other medical conditions that we know of. The doctors are perplexed with her and have scheduled an MRI on March 29th, 2004 but that is such a long time for us to wait. Blood tests all come back looking good. The only other symptom we have noticed is that she seems to have a yellow tint under her eyes in her skin(where someone would normally have bags under their eyes.) Any help would be gratly appreciated.
