Dizzy Days Be Gone

My neurology appointment finally arrives, and I am spinning my way to my EEG exam. I get all wired up with electrodes to figure out the root of my collapse and vertigo episodes.

I am not allowed to sleep the night before my EEG, so I try my best to stay up no matter how badly I lose my mind.

Being imbalanced is no fun, especially for mental health. But today I share what helps me from letting it knock me down.

It is nice to have family to lean on, especially when leaning against a wall isn't enough.

How it is okay to just sit this one out.

I explore the disadvantages of bipedalism as I walk around with vertigo.

I explore how the ringing in my ear can be hard to ignore, but it is not as hard as finding something to watch that won't trigger my vertigo. Sensory overload at its finest.

My dizzy journey out of the hospital to retrieve some medicine at the pharmacy.

I take a trip to urgent care that leaves my mind spinning with new information. The doctor explains I have vertigo, a symptom of another possible condition.

The dizziness was still around the second day after the fall, and the third day. Am I about to faint? The suspense is killing me.
