This past Friday, which was the 12th day of November, I fell forward from the commode as I was raising upward, I went head first into the rest room door and kept myself from falling onto the floor by bracing myself with my head. My hands were holding my clothing and I pulled them up while leaning onto the door, as my balance was an issue. There were issues that came about/popped up on Saturday. I awoke with severe lower back pain and aches in my shoulders. I do have issues with my cervical spine and lower back, so I wonder if I just had a domino affect. Also, that afternoon I had a constant droaning sound in my right ear. I can't even think of a better word for it. Because that's the way it sounded. It sounded like this, drooooooooooooooan - droooooooooooooooan, LOUD and lasted for hours...drooooooooooaning so loud I HAD to ask my wife if she was hearing it herself. Sadly, it was from within. The droaning kept me awake well into the wee hours of Sunday morning. Had never heard or had such a sound from within my ears...hope to never ever have to listen through that again.
Yes, I took my medications as directed...
My right-good-bad-ear has had an increase in the frequency of total silence. When it happens, I sit or lay there and listen to the silence. I know my hearing has been compromised and hearing seems to be getting worse with every passing day...I am terrified that one day my hearing will simply stop. I am mortified. My right ear also continues to inflate to what feels like there's something wanting to expel from within. The voices in my ears have become extra active this past 72 hours...as are the beeeeeps and another new sound is door bells! I hear what I think is a door bell and every time I do - I go check the front door. I mean really, as if somebody has rang my door bell and awaits my arrival...these are loud and clear as day...hell, clear as the bleeding sound of my door bell!
EVERY time one of these symptoms "pop" up, the anticipation and anxiety of an impending vertigo attack goes into affect...High Alert.
...so I wait and yet, I keep moving.
Keep Walking my Path...
...I've got to...
Thank you Jody...pushin' it and pushin' the envelope.
