Vertigo

Ugh. I was SO sick on Monday night (Labor Day) Dizzzzzzy. The it happened. Waves of nausea. All night long. Slept all day Tuesday and all night. Wed early afternoon I finally was able to call my doctor. She was out. So off to urgent care. They sent me to ER. Diagnosis after a Cat Scan? Vertigo.

Still having some issues. Minor, I guess. But it's hard to feel off kilter most of the time.

So, I need to make a follow up visit with my doctor. Especially now that my ears feel like they are "stuffy" and crackle-y.

Anyone else out there with Vertigo?

*sigh*

I am ever so thankful that the Cat Scan was normal.

  1. Yeah I recently had some vertigo. Minus nausea. But spinny world, yes.

    I don't get enough quality sleep. Little things wake me up and too much time lying down hurts my back. Like this morning I woke at 8am (bed around 10pm) normally wake around 5:45am for work. Sometimes even my 5:45 waketime causes minor back pain, but usually goes away by my first hour at work.

    So, I am nearly always tired. And from time to time I get brief little spells of dizziness OR vertigo but nothing spanning more than a 1-2 seconds.

    Then Sept 10-13 I had spells of just vertigo lasting several seconds. Now I am okay, & my supermini-spells-of-vertigo are back to "normal".

    I know yours comes with the nausea, so it is different than mine. But you asked so I told :-)

    I am very glad the Cat Scan came back okay too :-)
