I kind of knew it was back a few days ago, but it didn't seem too bad. But I tilted my head back this morning and it started spinning. Was off balance but not enough to fall that lasted almost 30 min to an hour. Haven't tried to set it off today so I could get laundry and cleaning up the kitchen done. Calling my ENT tomorrow to see if I can get in this week. Not just for the Vertigo, but my tongue and the back of my throat have been bothering me..very sensitive. Salty stuff tastes extremely salty, my Lemonaid is almost too sour to drink and it is sweetened just like I always do. I had one of my Lemon drops. They are sour, but OMG they were as sour as a Real Lemon. This started like Thursday, but has gotten worse. I sure wish I could feel perfectly good atleast until after my B-day in January.
We fended for ourselves tonight. Tom ate the Mexican Lasagna and I fixed a Ham, Roast Beef and Bacon Sandwich.

I am "off balance" but it is not the vertigo this time. It is a sinus infection. The sour lemon drops and lemonade will help prevent some problems, because they make you salivate more. Have you been checked for strep?

Haven't been to the doctor. Throat and Tongue were a lot better this morning. Decided to wait until tomorrow and see if it was any better. I have been getting over pneumonia and taking anti-biotics which can cause tongue and throat problems that should go away. Looked it up last night. Ate dinner tonight and no extreme salt taste. Balance is better as well.

I’m sorry. I hate vertigo (the condition, not the Hitchcock movie ), and I wouldn’t wish it on my worst enemy. I pray you get better quickly.

Sorry to learn you have challenges with vertigo. I once had vertigo for a day because of food poisoning. I had a dish which was ok for others but then belive it did not work for me. Next morning , while lying on bed, I feel like my head is spinning. After sometime I managed to reach the bathroom and puked for sometime. I had very little food -liquid diet for next 2 days and was back. But at times, when I turn back or sit in a train travelling on opposite direction, I feel dizzy. Good thing you are trying to see the doctor this week. Hope fully things would get better. Have a great day ahead!
