More on Week 6

Hi

Between yesterday and today the dizziness and loss of balance that I am having got quite a bit worse. I feel like I am on a merry go round even when I am just sitting in a chair. When I move my head it seems to move in stages causing me to feel like I am leaning or falling down.

We called the doctor and he said it might be that my blood pressure was too low but that wasn’t the case so he had me come in and give some blood so they could do a work up. That was this morning and I haven’t heard from them yet. They did give me a pill that helps the spinning feeling and it seems to be helping a little bit but this is pretty weird.

 

Driving is out of the question and walking is an adventure by itself. If I am not careful, I end up bouncing off the wall J I have to stand up very slowly, get my bearings and walk very slowly to where I am going. If I don't have something to hold on to it feels like I am going to fall down

I sure hope they figure out what is going on. It might be an infection that is causing the balance problems but who knows??

 

I will update you all as soon as I hear something but for now I am just going to stay in my chair (or bed) and wait for it to go away!!

Peace and Love,

John
