Hi Barb,
Falling is terrible. One minute you are up and a second later down. It happens so fast. I am glad you are only bruised. The tub is not a soft place to land. Bathrooms are dangerous. My tile is so slippery I had to cover most of it with carpets. I fell on my knee and had to have knee surgery. I was alone at the time.

I drove myself to the hospital with a huge bump and a bleeding knee. I didn't know I had torn the meniscus to bits and two tendons stretched and torn. 6 months in a cast and crutches, along with PT.

I loop my cell phone case to a thick ribbon and tie it loosely around my waist when I have no pockets. If I fall it goes with me in the protective case.

You could have passed out and really hurt yourself. My friend feel asleep on the bowl in the middle of the night and fell forward and hit her head on the tub. Knocked out until morning when her DD came in the house and found her.

I hope it never happens to you again. I think the Ambien pushed you over the dizzy point. I have taken the others you take, but not the Ambien or Zocor. I may get a drug hangover in the morning but not dizzy.

Please call and let your doctor know what happened. Maybe your BP dropped too low while you slept.

I hope your landlord will consider a shower but that doesn't help if you are dizzy going into the BR. Counters and bowls are a hazard too. Feel better soon.
