You guys are the BEST!
I had a "real" case of vertigo last summer - walking like the V8 commercial. Then a few months ago, the whole room started spinning and FREAKED ME OUT! I had a full blown body tingling anxiety attack. I went to the doc and they said vertigo again - so thus my issue with believing them because it was so much different than the last time and I thought it was rare to get it twice. They did say I was slightly anemic but that wouldn't cause that kind of dizziness.
I eat great and work out regularly, but nothing out of the ordinary. I went to an ENT and they did a bunch of different tests and ruled out certain inner ear problems. Of course I think it is something like MS or a tumor! I take my meds in the morning, so maybe the evening is when they wear off. The ENT said that adrenalin plays into the vertigo and I am a very excitable person, so maybe I just am happy to go out to eat! haha
Nevertheless, the blood sugar is something I may ask about when I have my first Lex follow up appt. I get really naseous if I don't get to eat my next meal on time!
Again - many thanks you guys!
Captain
