VERTIGO!

Blogging has been minimal lately, as the old VERTIGO bug has bitten me again!
If you've never experienced an episode of vertigo, I hope you NEVER do!
It's been two years since my last one. The following three pictures kinda give you an idea of how much fun it is! First, you're just standing still; your life is moving at a normal pace.

Then, all of a sudden, the room starts to spin, and you have to hold on to something to brace yourself.


Sitting down sometimes helps a little, but lying down doesn't!!. In fact, it gets worse if you close your eyes.

Please don't look at this graphic for more than a glance, but can you imagine staring at it for hours? That's kind of how my brain feels.


The good news, is that vertigo usually goes away as mysteriously as it began. Today seems a little better than yesterday, so I'm hoping it's clearing up!

Hi Susan,
I'm so sorry to hear that you suffer from vertigo. I hope that you are feeling better! My dad suffers from it sometimes too. Take care, and God bless! :)

Hey, girl. So sorry to hear you're not doing well! Johnny and Kenny have both had vertigo (or rocks in the head as the ENT calls it). You know, there's an OTC drug called Meclizine HClyou can take which works wonders, but it does take a few days before symptoms are completely relieved. You know that if you were a man, you'd be bedridden for the duration, so do take care of yourself. We had a good time at the beach last week and collected a pile of shells for you to play with. Looking forward to seeing you soon. xxxooo Toni
