Renai Posted May 20, 2015 Share Posted May 20, 2015 yes, I am soooooo late to this party (and maybe I missed someone else posting kilts because I skipped pages (*gasp*) ) but no thread is complete without kilts. Scroll to post #8 http://forums.welltrainedmind.com/topic/383733-only-because-i-havent-seen-a-thread-with-kilts/#entry3925322 Hmmm. Kilts. Ah, yes, we covered kilts - waaaayyyy early in the thread. There were a couple of videos on how to put on kilt wear. :D And of course, in order to stay here, you have to read the thread until you find them. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Renai Posted May 20, 2015 Share Posted May 20, 2015 That sounds very much like BPPV. Benign paroxysmal positional vertigo. It is fixable by specially trained physiotherapists who will make you get into certain positions very quickly to rearrange the tiny fragments of stuff in your ear labyrinth. I had a friend who got this last year. It took her a long time to recover. I don't know if it was because she's older (in her 60's) or if recuperation is always that long. I remember her telling me about those exercises. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Renai Posted May 20, 2015 Share Posted May 20, 2015 Oh, I forgot. I don't do feet - only baby/toddler feet. I seriously find feet repulsive, particularly men's feet. They should never wear sandals. They are terrible. My dh has the most beautiful feet - better than mine even. Soft. Like a baby's butt. (Look! I said 'butt' again!) 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

texasmama Posted May 20, 2015 Share Posted May 20, 2015 Oh I give up.. Your force is just too strong! It's like some kind of gravitational force pulling me in. . . A few years ago right when Agatha disappeared we had a pack of 3 or 4 coyotes that we would see in the neighborhood quite brazenly. There were a LOT of lost cat and small dog posters up at that time. It was MY force, right, Jean? :D 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AMJ Posted May 20, 2015 Share Posted May 20, 2015 Arggg! That's cool about the acoustic relief you sometimes get. So sorry it's not treatable; glad you don't need aids yet. Hearing is so taken for granted by people (like me) who have no problems. My father has Meniere's disease and talks all the time about how isolating it is. (Thankfully his vertigo spells are rare -- maybe 4x/year for a couple of days at a time -- so he has not suffered surgery with its accompanying complete hearing loss. But he really hears very little anymore, even with aids.) I am beginning to suspect that some other issues I've had for a long time which are getting worse might actually be tied in to the ears, too, somehow. I talked to DH about it so he can help me remember (nag me when I get distracted) to locate an in-network ENT and get seen. At the very least the ENT should be able to tell me if I need hearing aids yet, and who knows? Might be able to do something about some of the other stuff, too. I also plan to ask about Relax, an app for relieving some of the distress tinnitus can cause, and other similar technologies. My experience with the acoustics and music have me hopeful I might get such relief a little more frequently and hopefully less expensively. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AMJ Posted May 20, 2015 Share Posted May 20, 2015 Oh no!! I was totally teasing, Slache, and not even remotely offended. My brain damage is a source of constant good-natured teasing among my sibs, and had THEY posted your post, they clearly would have intended a jab at the state of my overall mental faculties, and I obviously would have retorted with some snide insult. :D Infinitely points for being sorry about something that you didn't even need to feel sorry about. BFFs Forever, OBB​™ . (I think the forever in that is redundant, but oh well.) We are ALL a bit brain-damaged here, I suspect! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Renai Posted May 20, 2015 Share Posted May 20, 2015 No, although that's what I've been joking about trying to do (give you likes). I think it's more like each like has a 24-hour timer on it. Each one resets after 24 hours from the time it was used, so if it took you 12 hours to spend your daily quota of likes you only have to wait 12 more hours before the first like has reset. Ooohhh, it was a joke. Don't tease me that way. I trust people. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AMJ Posted May 20, 2015 Share Posted May 20, 2015 hehehehehe. Out of context, this is really funny. :laugh: (In context, of course, it is not. How are you feeling today, Slache?)

AMJ Posted May 20, 2015 Share Posted May 20, 2015 This just reminded me of something, my fellow couch md's. I have been getting dizzy for the last few months. But it is only when I tip my head in a certain direction. This would indicate fluid in the ear, but the dr didn't see much. So when I lay on my left side, I get a wave of dizzy, but then it equalizes and I am fine. Until I get up... Lol. Anyone experienced this. Maybe I just need to load up on Claritin for a while:-( it isn't horrible. Just mildly irritating. Decongest. If you still have the problem when you are sure you are clear of allergies then see a doctor. But try some decongestants first. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AMJ Posted May 20, 2015 Share Posted May 20, 2015 Okay. Trusting. He just asked me how to spell something, and I turned it into a spelling/phonics lesson on the board. So I feel a little less delinquent. (He's got every superhero book he owns out, and is writing his own superhero story by finding words he wants and copying them into sentences. Which of course requires reading, and he hates reading so this is especially nice.) Sacrificing my own plans… I can do this, I can do this….. Good grief, don't mess with him! Let him continue! He is finding the enjoyment in the learning, AND figuring out some of the study methods that work best for him! Go have a cuppa and revel in this growth! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
