    There were many instances whereby he sacrificed his personal time and tutored me after school hours till late when nearing the A levels in the school canteen. He went through the entire ten-year series as well as various schools’ past year papers with me patiently to make sure I had more exposure to the different types of questions asked. He would also spring provoking questions to test my understanding and allowing me to reminisce the joy of discovery I had as a kid. More than just passing information, he shared his wisdom and experiences. I vividly remembered that his motto was “When everyone gives up on you, you cannot give up on yourself” This spirit encourages rather than intimidate me even though more challenges were ahead. He was always very positive about the small improvements I made and spurred me on with encouragements to continue these small steps and persevere through the A levels. Right then, it was the pat on the back that makes the difference and I overcame all psychological barriers I…

    Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo (BPPV) is the most common form of vertigo, claiming one third of all vestibular diagnoses in the general human population. Kollen et al1 concluded that consequentially that BPPV is the pathophysiological condition coinciding with approximately 20% of all globally reported cases of disequilibrium. Similar findings by Helminski et al2 determined that in vivo, 2.4% of the general human population will encounter BPPV, mostly occurring between the fifth and seventh decades of life. With such ample occurrences of BPPV along with its often debilitating symptoms of disorientation and nausea, BPPV is often misdiagnosed by patients and health care providers alike. BPPV is characterized by an acute onset of vertigo provoked by cranial contortions in the response to gravity and inertia. Symptoms are short yet elicit an intense vertigo, which may be triggered multiple times daily or remain in remission for up to 1 month. To provoke the onset of vertigo in BPPV, calcium carbonate crystals (otoconia) used to weigh down the sensory membrane of the maculae first become dislodged from the utricle. These otoconia (canaliths) settle within the most gravity-dependent section of the vestibularis labyrinth termed the posterior semicircular canal (PSCC). The tubular PSCC sprouts off the cupulla much like a handle on a coffee mug. With the inertial and gravitational forces during each movement of the head, these “canal rocks” float through the PSCC analogous to a rock in a car tire. Now displaced endolymph within the PSCC transcends fluid pressure onto the cupulla and, in turn, activates the ampullary organ resulting in the perception of vertigo. Due to apparent involvement of extrinsic inertial and gravitational forces during canalithiasis, manual manipulation of said forces during diagnosis and treatment of BPPV display logical coherence. The Dix-Hallpike test (DHT) is the standard mechanism for diagnosis of BPPV. During the DHT, the patient is…
