No I wasn't referring to past lives although I can see how it could be construed that way--I usually say I've lived longer than ever before, rather than I have lived longer than I ever have before, the latter which I think maybe has more of an implication of past lives. I did have a sort of a spiritual experience once when getting a hot dog from a sidewalk vendor. I asked him to make me one with everything.
Actually, one of my brothers, who was a naturapathic doctor, and especially his wife, whom the rest of the family has never met, apparently do believe in past lives, and ultimately when that was revealed in notes regarding his diagnosis in the case of a patient that went bad, he lost his license.
Is your balance issue due directly to the effect on your lower body or could it possibly be the neck vertebra issues are causing a blood flow problem to your brain? I don't know if you have access to the swimming pool, but have you tried swimming? Swimming takes pressure off the joints while stretching the muscles. In 1980 I was on a program where I swam for a half an hour day before breakfast six days a week for about a half year and I felt much better but unfortunately I didn't continue it. Seven or eight years later I started riding a bike, for about 13 years, which was good exercise in general, but not especially for my neck, where I also have an issue, but when I got a car again I felt really spaced out for the first few weeks when I stopped riding the bike. I used to say, if only I had a pool outside my back door. Well, when bought my current house almost 13 years ago, one reason I bought it was because it has a pool in the back patio with a 34 foot long swimming lane, 7 feet deep on one end and about 4 3/4 feet deep on the other, shallow end, so I don't have to put my feet down to do laps. Unfortunately, I've only used it for a couple of weeks total. I really need to start.
It's definitely a neck vertebrae issue. My cousin owns his own hospital and because we are family, there is no charge if I need a check up. I did various tests there and all seemed fine, even with my intoxicated feeling/balance issues, so I had a MRI done. He told me the disks were practically none existent. I don't like to be owning to anyone, so we bought him and his family a religious icon gold & silver plated. Seeing his hospital doesn't cater for neck issues I saw an orthopedist, who even lectures at the capitals university. I asked what may have caused this damage and he off the cuff said, road cycling, motorbiking and aerobatics. I laughed, because I'd done them all. Yes when it's summer ( I live in southern Europe) I swim in the Mediterranean sea, it no doubt helps a bit and I do neck strengthening exercises, but the symptoms remain. Talking about houses, we've bought a top floor apartment, which includes the terrace and are having it refurbished presently. Once completed in a few months we'll move in, then redecorate our present top floor apartment and rent it out. So having an operation done, which takes 16 weeks to heal 100%, is not for now. I'm looking at maybe the op around June, if I continue deteriorating and I've been quoted could cost anything from €7000 - €13000.
Good luck. When I was riding my bicycles, I specifically chose cruiser style with the higher handlebars, and medium tires, rather a racing design, so I could keep my neck at a higher angle, and periodically sit up straight.
