It sucked.
I called my Mom.
She's awesome and came to help out with the boys so Jamie could go to work and not have to stay home.

I lay in bed for the larger portion of the day. Read. Slept. Ate lying down. (Which is surprisingly difficult to do.)
It was frustrating, really. I wanted to get on my intense running regiment for the last 4 weeks before I run my 10k. And I actually felt fine as long as I was lying down. The minute I sat up, stood up or walked anywhere I felt ridiculously dizzy and then the nausea would start.
So yeah. It sucked.
So I got in to see my doctor this afternoon.
I'm not pregnant (in case you were wondering).
I don't have a virus (apparently).
We don't really know what this is (because this is the third time this has happened to me in the last 6ish months). But I got some wicked drugs to help keep the dizziness at bay so I can at least function should it happen again (I'm at probably 85% right now).
So not much was accomplished - at least tangibly.
But my boys were loved on. We all got to eat and laugh and love.
So...perhaps it was a good day.
(Can I say, "Screw you, vertigo!" ?)
Yup, you can say it LOUDLY!! I hate vertigo more than anything else I've ever been through, including labour!
ReplyDeleteyou can say it...infact write a blog post that just says "Screw you, vertigo" in like 100 font. It will make you feel better.
