to doctor or not to doctor
The dizziness isn't getting any better - in fact, it's gotten worse, particularly when i close my eyes. I can't move too quickly or i have to grab on to something to steady myself. I can't bend over without coming *this* close to pitching forward onto my face. Even tipping my head back to drink out of a glass has me holding onto something so i don't crash. Laying down and closing my eyes is THE WORST, though - every time i move i get so spinny that it wakes me up. Needless to say, my sleep has been even worse than usual. So, now not only am i spinny and grumpy, i am TIRED, spinny and grumpy. I am so tired that when i close my eyes I get that 'i could fall asleep' feeling - immediately followed by 'omg the world is spinning waaay too fast!"
I asked MK to call Dr. Cooper for me tomorrow since it doesn't seem to be getting any better. He told me that i could have called today if I'd really wanted an appointment; that he doesn't always have to be the one to make the call. I was silent for a moment before i responded, quite calmly "If it has anything to do with money, yes. I do feel like i have to ask."
Interesting tidbit; he didn't say that's not true at all. He said "We have insurance. I think a $15 co-pay is in our budget."
Rawr. Tell you what though. It's been 12 years. I've gotten used to it.
