alrite here we go....

i have an inner ear problem. a very annoying inner ear problem. if i spin too much for a certain amount of time. i end up getting the worst migrane imaginable. light, sound and movement are all excrutiatinly painful. now when this happens an hour later i blow chunks and im fine because the some barometric pressure inside is released or some shit.

heres the trouble, i cant get anywhere past a 540 because the above happens. i tried to land my first 720 the other day. guess what? i lift up my head and bam its there. i use all my strength to pull myself away from the landing. it is painful. very. i then force myself to throw up( finger down throat) to get it overwith. i then feel more or less fine, have something to eat after, and im up and skiing again.

i guess what im asking is if theres anyone out there that has these kinds of problems. or if you have any ideas for helping it. and yeah i tried popping 6 advils but that didint work. im willing to try experimenting but i cant do it too much because im at risk of stroke if it happens for too long.

 
id say go to a doctor about it, also dont pop that many advils because it can kill you. A girl who went to the high school i go to died of accidentally overdosing on it. Or you can just work on throwing mad steezy 1's and 3's and 5's
 
sounds brutal dude.definitely get a doctor's advice (if you havent).also, the season is slowly coming to an end so hopefully you wont have to deal with it too much over the summer.and maybe throwing the 7 on a bigger jump would help. maybe you just cant huck spins to fast.
 
I aint no doctor but maby try some dramamine (motion sickness pill..walgreen, rite aid, cvs etc) it will help steady your equalibrium (in your ear or something). i use it when there rough seas in the ocean, people use it for flying..try it out, couldnt hurt but make sure you get the non drowsy one because the regular one KNOCKS YOU OUT!
 
clean your ears with hydrogen peroxide. compacted earwax can cause horrible headaches. sounds gross, but seriously, it will fuck you up.
 
i used to get migraines all the time, i hate them. I stopped drinking pop completely in october and havent had one since, and i used to get them once a month. When i would get them i would take these dissolveable tablets called maxalt (i get a feeling of vommiting just hearing the name) which would make you barf for 3 hours every 15 minutes. I would get them so bad that I couldnt even see when they came. My best advice is go get a CT scan, thats what i did and it seemed to work
 
LIke all have said, not a doctor but it sounds like your spins or turbulence from skiing is causing some serious trauma to your inner ear. I know that the internals of your ear are responsible for balance and equilibrium, so your messin' something up for sure.
Could be vertigo, especially if you're blowing chunks and have a killer head ache. They say it can be caused from extended periods of turbulence or a blunt impact to the ear area.

dude talk to a doctor about it. as annoying as it might be if he tells you not to spin too much, it might just be the right idea. i mean 7s arent that much more fun than steeze 5s, and their definetly not worth having a stroke. or he can give you some kind of help, medication, surgery, something. either way your best bet is too talk to a doctor.
 
already been to doctor. he says i have a rare case of something or other. he wouldnt give me perscription pills because he reckoned that i would sell them at school (you can get high off them)

im willing to try the dramamine. ill post results tomorrow.
 
I think you should focus on either,

a) finding a new doctor

or

b) explaining to your doctor hes a fucking moron for refusing treatment because he thinks your going to sell them. hell what is it to him anyway whether your sell it or not if thats what it really comes down to
