Mealworm seminar.

This is killing me.

I need copious amounts of detail.

Finished my 8th set of pillowcases this week for my rabidly optimistic tech. Put a fork in me.

Those pillow cases!!!!

Did you grit your teeth so hard while sewing them that you lost enamel?

great work though, as always.... but SO COTTON CANDY HAPPY it is a wonder you didn't need your straight jacket when done..

I asked DH about it as he had a run in with vestibulitis a few years ago as a result of a severe sinus infection that he wound up having to have surgery for. He had severe vertigo along with nystagmus in both eyes. He couldn't see patients for at least a week and then slowly improved but not without lots and lots of steroids.

He said that if you have been fighting this for what 3 weeks without resolution it was time to go back to the doctor or see an ENT.

I went back to see him Friday. He said it's allergy related.
My vision is also affected by my eyes moving mostly to look up and it makes me dizzy.
I believe it is allergy related. But dang the dizziness is horrible.

Are you sure it is the prescription? Often vertigo is caused by crystals that move to the wrong spot in the cochlea. There is a head rotation therapy for it if so

My other Dr. told me if I get dizzy to lay flat and let my head hang off the edge of the bed to drain the tube. But it's back in a short time. I guess I just have to keep doing it.

Very pretty pillow case's Scg.

chica, if you didn't have it before the sinus trouble, that is probably the cause.
Vestibular neuritis or labyrinthitis. This is an inner ear problem usually related to infection (usually viral). The infection causes inflammation in the inner ear around nerves that are important for helping the body sense balance. I've had this happen several times throughout my life. In fact, one time I thought I was just suffering from my typical allergies. We took the boat out, and when I got back on the dock, it was as if I were still on the boat. The ground was "moving". I went to the doctor, and it wasn't allergies, but a sinus infection. If it doesn't subside in a few days of taking your medications, call your doctor.

Thank's everyone. I will talk to the Dr. and ask him to give me some antibiotics and try it.

Hello OF. Awake but not up yet. Soon. I do not hear saws or hammering yet. These idiots are going to be working in crappy cold weather soon when it could have been all done by now.
I am making meatloaf and concrete today, hopefully i will keep the mixtures separate!

that is an important thing!

But if your meatloaf normally looks like concrete. .....maybe you should try cooking something else.

just saying

I wouldn't chance it, don't they hang horse thieves, or is it cattle rustlers?

We aren't talking about stealing the horse, but if it wanders over to someone else's property without any effort or action on that person's part

Yeah I'm just kidding, if one knows where a horse came from, surely they should return it. At least the first couple of times

My other Dr. told me if I get dizzy to lay flat and let my head hang off the edge of the bed to drain the tube. But it's back in a short time. I guess I just have to keep doing it.

Laying on your back or front? I can't always lay flat on my back with no pillow without getting dizzy. Once horizontal I can slowly remove the pillow and be OK. Hang it over the edge?
