Anyway my balance did slowly get better but never fully. I basically always feel like I am on a ship when on ground. Weird thing is I feel back to normal when on a boat. All I need to do now is get the wifey to agree to live aboard.

Meniere's? Yep. The blessing is that you get good results with consistent PT and you'll always feel better on a boat.
