diagnosis....
so i went to the ent doctor today. i have ......
http://www.tchain.com/otoneurology/disorders/unilat/vneurit.html a mild case.
it seems the chicken pox virus i had as a kid has re-emerged and instead of giving me shingles...i get to be dizzy and fall down.
i feel like i am pretty much over this. i haven't been really dizzy since last week. he had me do a hearing test which came back normal....which is good because on my questionnaire about my dizziness it asked me if i have ever been exposed to very loud noises.....
ah...yeah..i worked in sound and with all the concerts i have been to in my lifetime so far....very much so. the many hours i have sat with my headphones on working on music and projects had me wondering how much damage i had done so far. i grew up with chronic ear problems and had tubes in my ears as a kid.
the doc says this vestibular neuritis can reappear in my life some other time, if it does i hope it was as mild as this time.
i cannot believe school starts tomorrow...but i am excited.
i splurged and bought a silly movie i used to love as a kid..... http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00076ONW8/ref=pd_kar_gw_1/104-9681424-8075101?%5Fencoding=UTF8%2CUTF8&v=glance&n=130
i still know the words to some of the songs. i haven't seen this since it was on cable when i was a child. from what i have read....it will be a lot dirtier because now i'm older and can get the innuendos.
