Vertigo, or dizziness, refers to the sensation of spinning (subjective vertigo) or the perception that surrounding objects are moving or spinning (objective vertigo). Some patients describe a feeling of being pulled toward the floor or toward one side of the room. Moving the head, changing position, and turning while lying down often worsen vertigo.
OK, yes. I have this.
Look at the picture for a second and you might get a small sample of what I'm going through.
This has happened to me before, a few years ago. I saw 2-3 doctors a week for 3 months with no answer to what was causing this horrid experience. I was poked, prodded, pushed, and scanned. Nothing. I even had a doctor tell me he thought I was pregnant. LOL. Too funny, and sad. Now this time this experience has come back to me as mysteriously as it had went away last time.
Nothing helps. No sleep, no food, no drug, or even meditation. I wish it was a simple as anemia or lack of sleep or even stress. Nothing, no thing helps. It makes me want to die a little. I feel like I have a right to complain.
Also, the worst part of this, I have to work. I CUT hair. And 3 days ago, also CUT neck. Really. For the first time in my hairstyling career I have cut a client and caused them to bleed! I almost died. It's not like I can say, "Oh, sorry. It's just this constant spinning I'm going through that makes it so hard for me to cut straight!" I would lose my clients and my job. Even writing this here is a little risky. For all of you out there that come in and see me at the Hairpolice, don't fret. I take my time, and try really hard to focus. I just wish the spinning would take some time off when I have to make the money I have to spend on my $2000 insurance deductible to try and figure this sich out. Argh. Please let me off now, I don't feel so good. ----------------M
