I have inner ear damage from an attack of labyrinthitis a few years ago.
Last year I had a bad attack (dizziness and spaciness in my head) while
waiting in my opthamologist's office. First they asked if I had eaten or if
I was dieting, and when they learned that I had indeed eaten, they asked if
I was afraid to be seeing the eye doctor! Looks like we all get treated
like children at times.
take care -- I pray for you all everybay -- Michelle

Frank tells it like it is.
When I went to ER with my TM attack the doctor kept asking if I was
dieting. That's how he wanted to explain my tremors, spasms and
paralysis. My husband took me to another hospital.

LOL Frank! Are you really serious about taking ones husband along so the
doctor will believe them? I never drag my husband along if I can help
it.Heonly gets a few days off as is. And, I am
a grown woman and I feel it would be like taking along a parent or
guardian.
Please tell me doctors do not think like that. Sounds like a scene out of
"Gone from the Wind." "Why Brett,I think she is haven a case of the
vapors."
This has given me a good laugh, oh my. Patti, Frank is cool, I guess he
is
maybe telling us how it is. Are you?
