Sorry for not following up--I've been away from the computer most of
the week...

I do get the sense that it is a low blood pressure issue, though I do
not have any way of confirming this. (Perhaps I should invest in a bp
monitor?)  

It does not seem to be a breathing issue, despite the strange
sensation in my chest at the very beginning.

I have fatigue in general, particularly after the poor sleep I get;
however, I would not say that these dizzy spells lead to fatigue...

As far as relocating, there is nothing I would like better than to
move; however, the decision is completely out of my hands, as my
husband still does not believe in my condition despite having shown
him meter readings that have confirmed my body's "readings". I have
gone to great lengths to search for feasible alternatives, but at the
end of the day, he quite simply doesn't want to move.  

The situation is further complicated by the fact that we have 5 young
children (two of which, unsurprisingly, suffer from nervous system
disorders--autism and dyslexia--and the others go through bizarre
periods of hyperactivity).

It is a good thing that I have a very deep faith, or the stress from
this alone would be quite overwhelming...I know that if it is meant to
be for us to move, it will happen somehow. If not, then I will just
have to do the best I can where I'm planted.

Thank all of you for your comments and suggestions...it is very
comforting to be able to discuss these things in a group like this, as
no one I know is at all familiar with such things.

Sincerely,
Lisa

it does seem to come on as you say, with funny feeling in my chest.  I
know that "funny feeling" as going along with anaphylaxis and
asthma (Marc here associates it with anxiety attacks).  Either way,
tho, it is another on a long list of autonomic nervous system
complaints that goes with ES.  Dizziness fits into that category as
well.  If you try taking your pulse and blood pressure when the
dizziness and the breathing problem affects you, you may also find
those are abnormal, as well.  Some here say their bp rises, but mine
definitely plummets--sometimes really severely.  I have also found
that fatigue comes on after these symptoms, and then most often
chills--after I am away from the offending frequencies.  The fatigue
from this can last days afterward, as can the low bp, unless I take
pantethine and calcium AEP to help raise it.  Do these additional
symptoms seem to ring a
