SOMETHING IS UP!!
HEY, FRIENDS, JUST A SHORT NOTE TODAY. I AM SORRY TO SAY THAT I AM NOT FEELING WELL. I HAVE BEEN UNDER THE WEATHER FOR ALMOST 3 WEEKS NOW. IT IS NOT MY BI POLAR. I HAVE BEEN HAVING DIZZY SPELLS AND THEY ARE GETTING WORSE AND MORE FREQUENT. I SEE LITTLE BLACK DOTS AND MY PERIFIAL (SP) VISION GOES. MY TUMMY GETS UPSET, PROBABLY A RESULT OF THE VERTIGO. AND I AM DRAGGING MY ASS I AM SO.....TIRED. YOU KNOW THAT WEARY TO THE BONE FEELING. AND I KNOW I AM NOT WELL WHEN I AM SLEEPING IN UNTIL 10:00 AND LATER. PLUS I CAN LAY DOWN DURING THE DAY AND NOD OFF. THIS IS NOT LIKE ME. SO I HAD AN APPOINTMENT WITH MY PDOC TODAY. I FILLED HIM IN AND SAID I WAS GETTING IN TO SEE MY NEW DOCTOR BUT HE WAS VERY BUSY AND IT WOULD BE A WEEK OR SO. HE THEN TOOK OUT THE BLOOD WORK FORMS AND CHECKED OODLES OF THINGS. HE WANTS ME TO GIVE THIS TO MY DOC AND HAVE HIM ADD TO IT. THEN THEY WILL BOTH GET A REPORT. I AM HOPING IT IS SOMETHING EASILY EXPLAINED IE BLOOD PRESSURE, INNER EAR PROBLEMS, EVEN DIABETIS. I JUST WANT AN ANSWER. I WORRY ABOUT THIS KIND OF STUFF. NOT THAT THAT IS HELPFUL. ANYWAY, I WILL HANG IN THERE. TALK TO EVERYONE LATER. DEBBIE

I am glad you are going to get this checked out. Once you know what it is, you can get it straightened out. Probably blood pressure, but you could check that yourself, most pharmacies have the blood pressure cuff machine to check your blood pressure yourself. Maybe you shoud do that. At least if it is high you can take precautions. Limit your salt and let your doctor know right away if it is high, since you could have a stroke if it is very high and left untreated. If it is high call, your pharmacist, too, and make sure any meds you are taking do not affect blood pressure. At least, you could eliminate one thing by taking your blood pressure reading, if it is normal. Keep us posted on what you find out and take care of yourself. Don\'t push yourself, you need to take care of you.

Glad you don\'t fool around when you don\'t feel good. It is not a good idea to wait. I hope some of you test are back and they have a clue. Be sure to let use know as we will be thinking of you. Have you changed meds on your own or anything. I do tend to self medicate, or just forget the whole days worth, my bad. Could be all the running around did not help. You are a go-go, from one who knows. Good Luck NJ xo
Healing prayers Deb, it\'s not you to be dizzy - you are usually making me dizzy by all your activity. Hope they get to the bottom of the problem soon. love and hugs xo
