Holy fuck. This sounds exactly like what happened to me a year ago. One day, it came out of nowhere and I thought I was having a stroke. I was too dizzy to do anything and thought I might actually be dying.
After a month, it got a lot better but I still constantly get bouts of it, especially when I bend over. It makes playing with my kids incredibly difficult at times.
If it turns out I have BPPV and my doctors didn’t think to test me for THE MOST COMMON CAUSE of vertigo, ima be… unsurprised 😅
It actually heats up faster than gas and I’d highly recommend people invest in steel and iron pans anyway. They work with induction, are basically indestructible and thus last a lifetime, and are healthier than nonstick pans.
I keep a nonstick but use it exclusively for scrambled eggs. As that pan only gets used for 1 thing, it lasts infinitely longer too.
I got my main cast iron and steel pans for £20-30 each. I’m confident my kids will inherit them. It saves money and is better for your health, highly recommend the small extra initial investment.
And yeah, induction is awesome, screw gas! Oh, except for woks.
