A useful review - but I agree with above comment that some tips on the best way of eliciting the key initial history would be useful.
The consultant who tried to teach me some ENT - many years ago - suggested - "Dizzy - this can mean 20 different things to 20 different people - what does it mean for you?"
At least here, in the Birmingham area, this question always produces the same answer - "Well doc - Dizzy".
