| "There is NO possible way you have MS.", expains my new doctor. " It has to be middle ear. Did you hear any ringing in your ears when the vertigo started?" UMMM I was more concerned about silly things like DYING to really notice doc! Oh Yeah...If you are vomiting and the Nurse says, 'Please hit the pan, so I don't have to clean it up". Do what i did. Knock the pan out of her hand and PUKE ON HER SHOES!!!!!! It works for me. I had a great ear doctor, or as they like to be called ornoottolarnygologists ( whatever ) He treats me for middle ear problems and tests me for hearing and also a fun little test they call a dizziness study. If you never had one, I highly recommend it. You will never fear HELL again!! Six months of falling down in front of customers at the autoparts store. Six months of leaning far to the right to feel like I am stitting upright. SIX MONTHS of pure horror, which, by the way , lead to intense mental therapy and xanax (another story I guess) Six Months! SIX!, of hearing doctors say "work it off, it's only an ear infection!" I think SIX was my limit because I stormed the office and demanded to see a real doctor. My exact words! Philadelphia PA is a wonderful city, if you are not driving the expressway with severe vertigo! In rush hour! They have the finest doctors in the world there. University of Pennsylvania Hospital is DEFINATELY on my A list of medical facilities. Thats where I heard the words I have been waitng for........................................... You have MS |
