 Topic: Dizzy Spells
Posted: 09 Dec 2023 at 10:25pm |

Went to the Dr Yesterday to check up on the dizzy spells I'm having. After they went up inside me and burnt out a couple of spots of bladder cancer, I'm now having dizzy spells and passing blood. Called them, they said blood passing would probably continue for a couple more weeks. Anyway the new female Dr gave me some pills to combat the dizzy spells. Hope they start working soon. She was a real cutie pie. They syringed out my ears. That's the first time that's happened in 74 years of me life. After that I got to go see my 101 year old mom in the nursing home. She's quit first for her age.

Dizzy spells can be from many sources. I went through that a few years ago and mine were tracked to going in and out of atrial fibrillation. Your cause is probably different, but if the dizziness continues, check your pulse to see if it feels normal.

When I was working in a machine shop, we had to wear earplugs. Seems about once a year I had to get my ears washed out. And for some reason, every time it was a nurse that was hotter than a $2 pistol. One of those that you don't really want seeing the nastiness that comes out of your ears.

Well,,I'm not sure what's going on with me and the dizzy spells but after reading this thread so far I'm gonna have my PCP check my ears out in a couple of weeks during my followup. I notice I get a dizzy "moment" whenever I try to turn direction too quick but only lasts for an instant and also I have noticed my hearing aids tend to require changing of the tiny filter on the mechanism too often,,,??

Believe it or not, last time my ears were cleaned I joking told the nurse I wanted the wax back, she broke out laughing and said you may not believe this but some people do take it home and she didn't know if they made little wax people or candles out of it. She said she couldn't think of anything else they'd do with it all the while almost falling off her stool from laughing. It's what keeps the world spinning I guess.
