Symptoms such as you describe MAY develop in older people because of disturbances in the CRYSTALS contained in the inner ear.<br /><br />Also the VAgUS NERvE sometimes goes haywire, and causes dizziness, nausea, and short term blackouts. My aged aunt suffered from that condition, and would periodically pass out in restaurants in the middle of a meal. Very dramatic, very furthering, UNTIL experience taugh that these episodes, while dramaatic usually resolved themselves very quickly. <br /><br />The risk of FALLING, of course, the major concern.

It got browner as I got older, though my beard was bright red, till it turned snow white when I was n my sixties. And while my eyes do qualify as "green," I have to confess they'e a sort of KHAKI green or CESSPOOLgreen. YECH! <br /><br />My mother preferred to call them "HAZEL," but they vary with the weather, and what I'm wearing too. Mother had beautiful AQUAMARINE eyes, and father's were CORNFLOWER BLUE.<br /><br />I never did have good luck that way.
