Like Sami says everyone's recovery is different x x
I find I suffer with headaches more when I feel dizzy, tired or over done things x x
Hope you are feeling well and that the headaches ease for you very soon

Hi All,
I know I have posted lately about me feeling really dizzy x x
I have been to the doctors ALOT and they just seem to try different meds (I have now tried them all) and they cant do anything for me x x
I am trying to figure out if I have to live with this x x
Symptoms
Dizzy
Feel sick
Headaches
fuzzy head
spinning feeling
whooshing around in my head
weak feeling in my limbs
Room spinning
Walking like I am drunk (when I am not)
I am finding it really hard to work with these symptoms but like most of us I need the money,,,,,,,,bills to pay
I don't know what else to do x x who to turn to x x x and keep thinking the worse (like I do) so that does'nt help me x x x
Is anyone else suffering with this or have done in the past x x
I know if something bad was going to happen it would of done x x x but like you all know i am a worrier x x
I thought about asking to be ref to a neurologist or if there is anyone else who could help me but I don't like wasting peoples time, also to see if i can have my MRI scan earlier (I am due to have it in April 2013)
I know I am rambling on now x x
But just wanted to know if anyone has any advice on what they think I should do or could do if they are or have been in my position x x
thank you all for taking time to read my post

Ty all, I have been feeling really dizzy/spinny again today, thats been a week now.
Thankyou all for your advice and help it really does mean alot to me and I take it all on board.
Kris I will give your techniques a go x x x scared though because the thought of doing them whist feeling dizzy seems like it would be worse but I need to do something its rule my life for a week now....
I have meds to take for two weeks and if I am no better I am going back to docs again (feel so paranoid) I am 4 days in now x x x so fingers crossed x (not working so far)
love to all again

Hello all,
Thought I would post this really to get advice and see if anyone else suffers like this x x
A week ago I became really dizzy and needed to lie down, felt so dizzy I felt sick x x started to cry (which I know does not help) saying why me why cant I just move on from all this x x My sah was 4 years ago x x x
Now a week later I still feel rubbish x I have been to doctors and he said it is some sort of ear infection and it can effect alot of the body he called it something beginning with L x x I have headaches and pains in my eyes x x back ache all down my spine and around my neck x x it feel like my head wants to explode and I just dont know what to do I sleep and I still feel dizzy I have been feeling like this for a week and also when I stand up feel like I am going to fall or black out x x x I keep thinking what if it is this or that x so someone tell me how every ache or pain I have do I think I am having a sah or there is some complications x x I really want another baby but really dont feel strong enough when I feel ill now x x x I want to go to work and come home and be a mum x x normal life x
Does anyone else ever feel like sah rules each day ? x x
This happened 3 weeks ago also causing me to have time off work again x
Also a question for the ladys what do u feel like when it is the time of month x x
Sorry to rant just dont know who to talk to x x
lots love

I am so glad that this thread has started I dont know why I didnt start one myself really (no I am not pregnant) but having another baby is something big on my mind and I really want another but so worried only because lately I have been feeling so dizzy and having stiff neck and back x x I wonder how I would cope if I had these feelings and was pregnant too which I can remember last time I was sooo tired so I will have that on top of my fatigue I have now x x I speak to Jess alot about this and she has given me alot of advice of what she would do and I always think this is the best form of advice because that is always my moto "this is what I would do" because everyone is different.....ie fatique and emotions and have very strong ones of these and i know when/if i ever had another baby these will be my main worrys x x
I had a c section with my last one and I have requested if I could have another again x x they say yes because I have had one before and because of my health history x
My neuro team just told me to get on with my life has normal and this included having a baby (wish it was that easy)
It is so lovely seeing a few pregnant people on here and i am sure you will be able to support each other and hopefully me one day x x x
CONGRATULATIONS - I have a moto that everything happens for a reason x x
lots lots love

Hi Janet
Sorry to read your having a tough time x x I think a few of us are feeling it lately x x I also have a headache, feel dizzy and resulting in feeling/being sick x x
Its so hard to just get on with life when feeling like this x x I get through by focusing on this is just a rough patch and I will have good days again x x even though i am on my 6th day of feeling like this x x and trying to get out at least once a day helps x x fresh air and in my words keep you sain only so many days I can take of looking at 4 walls x x
The good days are just around the corner hun hang in there and keep smiling x x x a smile a day keeps the doctor away in my moto x x
lots hugs

H Sandi,
Karens right always get things checked out x x x
I have been/have still got the same problem has yourself and lately my head just doesnt feel right its hard because I want to get through these feelings without going to the doctors
(feel i spend most of my life there with paranoyer) but then i think i need to deal with these sensations on my own otherwise i will never recover from my anxiety x x x I will mention the sensations when I am next getting my BP checked but they never seem concerned x x x
My previous doctor did say to me that my ear problem would more than likely happened even without me having a sah x x (not everything is related to sah)
I always find I feel worse around my period (sorrys guys) my head plays up more for about week i'm on and week after x
my doctor put me on some tablets for a bit for my ears which i now have finished and they did help so sandi if its annoying you get it checked x x
all my love

Hi Guys,
Well today I phoned the hospital to inform them of my change of address and number and spoke to the neuro nurse x
I asked when my next scan is and its on April 2013 x she said that they want to keep an eye on the neck on the annie that I had coiled April 08 x I knew I had a small opening but then I heard the word neck so thought I would post this x I have been having alot of headaches lately and pains in my eyes and with hearing this I now feel worried x AGAIN x
The nurse also told me that if there is any change then they would operate :confused:
This is all a suprise to me x x BUT I have come this far so I know I will be ok x I have to be for my family x x
Does anyone else have a neck on their anni ??????? what was you told about this ???????
love to all

Jess - I understand your advice and I must say the words have stuck (and not many do )
I dont think I will be trying for a baby this year :confused: x
I am just soooooo broody and really want another person in my life x x but like you say I need to get myself on track and move forward x x I am moving home and job and think that it is a good time for me to do so x x onwards and upwards x x x just hope the bad days dont drag me down to far I can tell myself and pick myself up but sometimes its just so draining x x I dont think it hel x ps that I have quite a few personnel past history to deal with it just all goes together x x but I know I can get through it and I am sure when it is time hopefully I am lucky enough to have another child x x Jack keeps asking also for a sister x x if it was only that easy hey x x x
I hope you and your family are well x x keep in touch x x
love donna

Hi Bay,
SNAP I have had a REALLY bad period this month and the thought of fainting is my biggest fear it even leads to massive panic attacks x x and like yourself this month I nearly phoned for a paramedic but I just thought I cant phone them everytime I feel weak and feel faint so agaion like you I just went to sleep to wake up feeling 10 times worse x x
I am only 31 and want another baby (which aqlso worries me how I will feel) x x I dont want to go on the pill or anything like that because I am trying to loose weight and I know I will just put even more weight on if I did x x
some months I feel fine but some are like a nightmare and like others takes over at least a week of my life x x x
I am moving doctors soon and going to talk to them with regards my periods so will let you know what they say x x
keep smiling

Guys you are all amazing and your words mean the world to me x x x
Karen - The low times are so horrible and come with no warning x x coming back off holiday wont help
But like other guys say try and keep yourself busy (difficult with fatique) x x I am trying so hard to come off my anti-depressents because I want a baby and the ones I take are not good for baby x x going to cut down to 10mg when I have moved (Doctor Knows) and I know I will have to fight the bad days x x x x you are doing fantastic x I wish I had the guts to fly for a warm holiday but between you and btg I am soooooooo scared x x I think I just keep putting ideas in my own head x pressure on the plane and what if I have a really bad panic attack that I struggle to cope with x x x so maybe you could inbox me some hints x x x
I really do hope the good days are here soon its horrible feeling low x x x
TC hun and stay strong x x
