elucrehSomething TC asked me last night made me realise: duh, if I post about spending half a week in a falling-over haze, it's extremely likely some (or all) of you are worrying about me.
So here's the sich:
I am still having dizzy spells. How bad they are seems to go in cycles, which are three or four days from peak to peak. The doctor's first solution to this is to take me off my meds (because I REALLY NEED TO HAVE ABSOLUTELY NO MOTIVATION OR ABILITY TO FOCUS RIGHT NOW, THANKS, DOC) because dizziness can be a side-effect.(I don't get it. I've been on them a month. Surely side-effects should have shown up before that?) Ah. Apparently not. While it is a relief to know my doctor is not lying about this, it doesn't help my optimism about getting back on meds soon. *sigh*
If this brilliant solution doesn't work, I will have to go to a special clinic and have ten million tests done. Sadly enough, I am hoping this is true, because it means I can go back on my meds as opposed to waiting a month to start different meds.
I also fell down last week and chipped a bit of bone out of the palm of my hand. (Ow.)
I took a couple of weeks of almost no school/driving/moving in the hopes that this would help the dizziness. It didn't, and I can't afford anymore, so if you see me falling down in the hallways of the college or driving into a ditch, please stop and help me up/out. It will be appreciated.
(If you'd like to do the homework I haven't done, that would be appreciated too. Gah.)
