Darlings! I’m not incapacitated any longer!
That dastardly migraine has at last relinquished it’s frightful hold and today I was feeling enough like myself to venture out into the world!
Pity the after effects left me fighting both vertigo and the subsequent nausea that accompanied it. A ginger ale and quiet little sit down saved my outing, but I shall need to tread with just a wee bit more care, shan’t I?
The struggle continues now of course, when a migraine triggers tinnitus and vertigo in a way it hadn’t in five or more years, medical professionals need informing. For the first time in my life I’m praying to any deity listening, the universe, and all the collected ancestors it’s just an ear infection the hood doctors can give me an antibiotic for.
The alternative is further damage to my hearing, and possibly requiring surgery or aids, which will be a nightmare scenario for me either way, given the sensory issues that come with my unique brain chemistry. I’ve used OTC aids off and on for the past couple years since the last doctors assessment. These and their crazy expensive counterparts irritate the daylights out of me and I can’t see it going any better now.
My partner encourages I just bite the bullet and see the doctor, but I’m sure some out there know the nerves I’ve got over all this. Right?
