So, I haven’t posted this week because I have been busy walking around like Jack Sparrow. Although he is quite the eye candy, I don’t mean to say I am dressing up like him, cute beard and all, walking around. Nope. I look like I’ve had a bottle of rum. I’d like to even say I have had a bottle of rum, but sadly, I have not. I am experiencing severe vertigo symptoms. Apparently, if I have severe vertigo I might vomit. My toilet already knows this, now you do too. The symptoms have finally lessened because I went to my doctor the next day, and got some medicine. Since I have not really experienced this before, well, I mean sober that is, I did not realize how bad this could be. It is not funny sober. Not one bit. It is hell on earth.
So, while I was looking this up, I found this passage in another link. It said Labyrinthitis could be a cause. Since I had never heard of this before, I decided this was what I had. I called my mom and told her that I had a new thing going on. She asked me, and after serious contemplation, she said “David Bowie is singing in your ear?” We burst into laughter. And this is how you make something serious funny in my family. We couldn’t stop laughing. Sigh. You might not know this, but I am a geek, and as a child, one of my favorite movies involved David Bowie in Labyrinth singing this song:
This of course, has nothing to do with why I am sick, although my husband would tell you otherwise. Despite the fact that I am still feeling pretty off, it’s nothing that won’t eventually go away. Or so “they” say. In the meantime, here is one last piece of advice for those who have this. Try the Epley Maneuver.
“I don’t know where I’m going from here, but I promise it won’t be boring.” ~David Bowie
