Was a little dizzy when I got up today which is normal. Went with Tim and the kids to get haircuts, have a yummy brunch at the Bagelry and hit the Pumpkin Patch. Sometime on the way home, I got hit with that old carsick feeling. It has progressed throughout the day to too dizzy to stand up for more than a minute or so. I start to feel like I'm falling down even though I know I'm not. It's very disconcerting. I've taken all my medicines and treatments including a long nap and I may be worse now. I'm lying down in bed now and my head feels like it has doubled in weight. Noise is bothering me too. It is so incredibly frustrating but this is the reality of having a vestibular disorder. It can come out of nowhere and kick your butt all over the place. There's no working through it or ignoring it when it gets to this point. I'm just grateful that it hasn't progressed to the hell that is full on vertigo attack.
As always, I'm wondering what did it this time? food? atmospheric pressure changes? I have no idea but that's the only two things I can come up with. Not all days are good days which is why I'm trying not to take the good days for granted. However if I find out I'm getting this crap in my other ear, I will completely come apart at the seams. I need to try to be positive about this and call my doctor Monday and see if I can get in sooner to see him.
Hoping for a steady night and a good day tomorrow!
