Hi everyone , at the moment i am worrying myself sick about my health,

as you may remember me posting about my severe dizziness and unbalance whilst walking , and the specialist at the hospital said he wants to keep an eye on me , and he doesnt think its anything serious.
He told me to keep a diary and to do the hallpike test at home now and then to see if my eyes jump when in that position , this i have been doing now and then and we have a positive result that we have filmed for the specialist to see at my next appointment on MONDAY.

Then I got a phone call on new years day fom my family who i have not spoken too in many years , and it turns out my Uncle (my dads brother) is under the same specialist as me , with the same symptoms.
Well you can imagine how horrified i was to hear this , so i phoned the hospital and they told me they will compare our notes and there are some genetic diseases that can give the symptoms we have.

I have tried be calm and put it down to a coincedence , but its getting more difficult as my appointment is getting closer.

I hate the not knowing
sorry for going on , just needed to let it out.

:hugs:

Hi Mirry,

sorry that you are having this worry, waiting for appointments is an added nightmare with ha isin't it.
Even if it were to be a genetic disease it does't mean its a serious at all and you might get to the answer quicker.
Make a list of all the questions you want to ask on monday, i find that helps,

:hugs:

I know how hard it is not to google. I spend alot of time on here doing just that and then go and procede to have a panic attack. Dizziness itself can be extremely frightening. I hope they find out something for you soon and that it isnt serious at all.

hi, do u know that dizziness and feeling unbalanced is a side effect of anxiety i get it all the time and dont stress about it, it feels like your really wobbly and like the floor is moving x
