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:
