The best way to check your kidneys is a 24 hour urine collection....have they done this for you?

Hi everyone

I am feeling lots better. My only concern now is I can't seem to find
a cause for the dizziness I get when I stand up. Or lay on one side
mainly of my head. I have always as many of you know had dizziness.

But this is really back, and bad. I don't know what to do.

Should I call my Neurologist/Opthamologist for a appointment. He is
the one that helped with this issue before. Could it be its back because
of the letting this infection go longer.

I don't think my primary would find a ear infection, because they don't
hurt. And I didn't have one last week.

Any thoughts appreciated.

Ps. I am not really catching up with folks. Just not on. So hope all are well and good.

Donna,

I've had problems with dizziness and passing out when standing up, especially if my BP is low and/or I'm dehydrated. Also have dizziness and nausea... vertigo... from MS tho.
They usually do orthostatic signs on me- taking BP and pulse while laying down, sitting and standing to see if there is a drop in BP or a pulse increase.

I'm glad you've seen a neurologist about this in the past. It may be time to make an appointment.

I wish you were feeling better Donna!

Thanks Kay,

The dizziness is better right now. I'm going to monitor to see if I need
to make a appointment.

Hi everyone

I feel really good, other than I am still having problems with the dizziness.
Its not something that is there all the time. I do have a question, if anyone knows. Is there a chance there is a infection if the area under your ear
is really sore. I do now that my neck is very tight, and that could be the
problem too. I am going to schedule a massage tomorrow.

Donna

Dear Donnna,
I don't know this stuff.

Do you have walk in clinics in drug stores like we do here for 50 dollars?

M.

Donna, there are lymph nodes in the area under there ear but...

if you are also having neck pain, the pain under your ear may be related, depending where/what your neck pain originates from.

Yes we have walk in at some of the pharmacies. But we also have
the med express that I went too.

I am better today. Will see what tomorrow brings.

Donna

ps. on another note, husbands company got first real job last night.
He is better.

I'm glad you're feeling better Donna!

I hope you continue to feel well!

congratulations for the new work!
