vertigo sucks

Monday after I took the vertigo medicine, the vertigo seemed to vanish. It was back the next day. I had stopped taking the Tylenol because the headache seemed less.  I was still having dizzy spells.I began walking very carefully. I avoided quick movements and stairs as much as possible.

Thursday I was still dizzy in the morning. I drove to ESU and had to pick up some printing. It's on the third floor. I went in search of the elevator. I had visions of falling down three flights of open stairs. It was weird using an elevator for such a short distance. That early morning dizzy spell was the last one I had. I took the last pill on Friday and thought I was cured.

I also ran out of eye drops last weekend. So Monday, while I was at Target, I tried to get the drops refilled and they were out of stock. They'd come in Tuesday. Tuesday is my long day, so after work Wednesday I went to get them. They still hadn't come in. I've now been out of them for 4 days. I wonder if the pressure in my eye was adding to the problems. I had to go to a different CVS for them. I opened them in the car.

I spent the weekend grading. Fun, right? 

Sunday is laundry day. I brought in the porch furniture and put it in the basement. Then I carried all the wash downstairs. When I brought the wet laundry up to hang it up I got to the top of the stairs and the world started spinning. I almost didn't make it to the living room. I fell onto the couch. I bet it lasted three minutes. The longest yet. The headache is back too. Vertigo sucks.
