Hi All
Posted on monday as I was feeling low, ot lots of support and started to feel better. Then had the worst giddy turn of my life, it felt like I was falling forward in slow motion then every thing went weird in my head I just screamed and really thought I had a stroke. Of course anxiety soared and my son come home to stay with me. Dont know how my hubby got me to bed that night felt like I was very drunk, well it was worse tuesday so phoned the doctor ( really major for me a I have a terrible phobia of them) even panicked when he arrived but he tested me for things and said I had Labyrinthitus ( infection of the inner ear) and said I had no sign of stroke thank heavens. So obviously he took my blood pressure which had been worrying me for ages as I take my own and it was high then but I was in comlete panick but told him about it and he has given me water tablets one 2 and a half mgs a day which is such a releif to me but I am still terrified to take it.He said to wait until I had got over the labyrinthitus .Does anyone take these pills for blood pressure and could you reassure me it says to check if you take Ibufrofen and I do every day for pain only 2 Nurofen and not to drink. which I hardly do but like a couple of shandys on a sunny day at the pub .Would you believe when my daughter picked them up I panicked just looking at them.
Still feeling poorly very tired and weak, but can walk on my own now ( couldnt stand up for 2 days) I feel such a burden to my family.
Thanks for listening my friends
