Hi all,
Today was an AWFUL day. I have been dizzy the entire time and I can't seem to visually focus on anything - my depth perception is off and it's almost like I'm seeing double :( Anyone else have that ever?? It's making me think I have an aneurysm or something, arrghhh. Probably doesn't help that I treated a patient with a newly clipped aneurysm today....sheesh.
Hope you all are doing well!!

Bev, what you describe is a pretty common condition with us,
I had it for years, I did notice that strobe lights, and such make
me want to puke, I started taking Benadryl for sleep and in a
few months it passed. Hang in there time will deal with this. Peace

Bev,
Sorry you have had a rough day.:(
Any luck with the breathing exercises...or pursuing the possibility of a migraine diagnosis?

OMG, YES!!
I definitely relate to this, and it's something that does drive me bonkers. My vision changes throughout the day in my right eye. (I've been to a few docs, so I stay on top of this).
And the lights,...yikes,...I can attest to how sensitive my eyes to lights flickering, sudden changes in light, however, subtle, will send me spinning.
Hubby doesn't quite 'get it' as it seems so subtle, and it's one of the (many) components he, we, have been dealing with for years.
Mine is worse in the morning, -- the double vision or halos, the depth perception is all wonky,... Then it clears up a bit, and it's pretty much hit or miss at night.
I got your back on this one. I do understand! (What a pain in the tookus, right?) ;)

I feel like I'm dizzy all the time. Can't focus, feel like I'm living in a dream world, get disoriented when I hit bright lights. I hate it so much. Klonopin helps at times, but I want it to go away. I feel so weird
