What did you cook or eat today: August 2025?

[pocofan]

I just don’t have the energy. When I stand or basically move my head starts spinning and the nausea waves come.

Hope you feel better soon.

Would love to have that right now. Dam you diabetes.

Baked potatoes. Corn and chicken breasts. I added a little fireweed honey in the corn. Tasty. The Chicken I basted with butter, thyme and oregano from the garden.

Yes but this compounded by upset stomach.

In my experience, nausea is a side effect of vertigo. Not for everyone, but for me too often.

 

[TastyReuben]

Had one of those small/individual Bob Evans original mashed potato cups with butter.

Did it make you feel any better?

The funny thing is, I don’t really like ice cream, but MrsT wanted something, so we stopped and I got the cheapest thing they had - that’s a kid’s-sized serving for $1.95.

Did it make you feel any better?

Yes a little bit.

Yes from looking down AND looking up.

Ugh, I can relate. So sorry.

Kind of gross, so be warned.

Try vertigo so bad you literally can't walk, have to have 2 people help you, can't even move while lying in bed without the world going crazy, vomiting everything in your stomach, then retching violently after there's nothing left, for over a week, then slowly, very slowly starting to improve, 4 weeks before you feel half way normal, can't drive for months because if you move your head too fast, then everything spins, ending up taking nearly 6 months to recuperate to feeling normal for the most part, but even nearly a year after still had episodes of vertigo occasionally after moving too fast.

Aftermath of a 110+ foot dive with 2 deco stops, getting really low on air after the stops so having to surface regardless. My ear wouldn't equalize on ascent as water/inner ear pressure decreased. We were on a dive boat trip out in the middle of nowhere so no hospital available for days until we docked and drove home, about 2 hours, me with the seat laid all the way back.

Sorry med. I don't want to read it if you have to give a warning. No offense. My stomach still isn't feeling well.

 

[Barriehie]

Not to be negative but sounds like trying to die and healthcare reaps the bennies...

How horrible. I'm so sorry.
