um, were you also dizzy, with the room spinning a bit?

first time I got vertigo, I thought it was food poisoning (or an intestinal bug) causing the vomiting...

I ended up sleeping on the bathroom floor, because it was too much trouble to *get UP* and go back to bed, 'cause I'd just end up back in the bathroom again...

Meclizine helped a LOT with that little problem.

but if ya had the dreaded "D" as well, then probably it's not vertigo.

if you don't feel better by tomorrow, or can't keep any food down, make sure you see your doctor, and REST, and drink Pedia-lyte, or Gatorade, to keep hydrated.

and I hope you feel better SOON !!

:hug:

my update:

the three little baby goosies are all doing well in the brooder box, with the heat lamp on at night... they appear happy, healthy, and vigorous.

my hubby hung a bundle of tender young grass from the ceiling, and the goslings have hours of fun tugging at it, and chewing the grass stems.

they're eating chicken starter mash, with Brewer's Yeast powder mixed in, and one section of the egg crate is filled with a bit of rough sand, so they can get some grit in their diet.

the plan, at this point, is to wait and see what momma Gwynny hatches, out in her little shed, and add these babies to her brood, if it can be done safely... as it's almost warm enough outdoors.

none of the other goose eggs in the incubator hatched... (ah, well...)

almost impossible to get the lil buggers to hold STILL for the camera!

"Ooooooh, look, a BUG !! Wonder if that'll taste good?"


oh, and the gosling with the booties?

his feet are all flattened now, so the boots were removed, and he's walking well.

sorry the pix are kinda blurry, guess I've got a wee bit of tremor-thang goin' on here.

other news, guinea mommy and her babies are doing well, and hubby is busy building half-a-dozen new cages... yesterday we went to the capitol (oh, I'm soooooo tired!), to get a roll of wire mesh, and large sturdy door bolts that my numb hands can manage easily.

and the duck nest by the pond is up to 16 eggs... WOW!

I sat on a tree stump out by the pond, watching the ducks glide by, as I sipped my coffee, it was very peaceful...

oh, and last night I actually got an EMAIL from my youngest, (in Oregon, in college)

I swear, it's been MONTHS since he wrote...

his excuses? didn't have my email addy, due to broken computer, no internet access at apartment, and couldn't use internet cafe, no money, and of course, he's so busy these days, lol! SHEESH! don'tcha know, a mom worries, dear?

okay, I had my sweetie take some pix, 'cause most of mine came out REALLY blurry.

and lol, it was almost as hard for HIM to get a photo, 'cause all three *rarely* hold still at the same time!

they're learning to flap their wings, and JUMP now.

also, saw two of them lower their beaks, and doing the "CHARGE" thing, like their evil aunt Glinda.

here's a few more:

NaeNae, these are for your darlin' daughter!

I had my bloodwork done this morning. And or course my neuro's office just called and said they wanted me to have an additional test to check for antibodies. It takes 3 weeks to get the results so I have to go back tomorrow morning for another blood draw.

LOL Kayo Olivia saw the ducks and said WOK Woks!!!!! and wonderpets!!!! (one of her fav cartoons) I think they're pretty darn cute myself!

ugh tummy bugs stink! Literally and not so.

Ok Sandy so, I decided you were right about finding a new doc anyway thinking back to the 3 times, twice with allergic reactions to meds SHE ordered and once while in the hospital with a flare, and noone ever being able to get ahold of her that maybe we need to be searching for someone who specializes in MS. So I call my PCM's office today to schedule an appt with her....SHE GOT OUT OF THE MILITARY! Hello??? In one week? with NO notice? Are all of my doctors out of their minds? So I now have an appt tomorrow with some other doctor whom I have never seen before and does not know me from Adam....more to the point I had made the appointment thinking OK if I have to go screaming up the chain of command I am having them send me to either Georgetown or Johns Hopkins MS Centers.....when what do my wondering eyes appear.....but a minature sleigh shaped like the mail truck...with an invitation to attend a seminar by a renowned MS specialist....whose practice is 30 minutes from me!

So I called their office....of course they aren't tricare providers,because tricare doesn't pay crap right?? But said that if I could wrangle an out of network referral out of Tricare they'd be happy to book me an appointment, so I am going to go tomorrow and try to strong arm the clinic into it! Hey its cheaper than sending me to Baltimore and Johns Hopkins or DC to Georgetown right? Cause then they'd have to pay for my travel and my hubbys expenses!

Kay-
Renee's post got me "wondering"....Do you have a turtle. If not, you really need to get one. Then you'll have all the wonderpets and whenever you get into trouble, they'll sing a little song and get you out of it.

I know the cartoon is meant for 3 year olds, but I absolutely love it!

I hope you get that out-of-network-referral approved, and PAID for.

lol, you SCREAM if ya haveta, girl!

('cause sometimes, ya just GOTTA, to get what you need, and deserve, not to mention PAID for !!!)

here's some DUCKLINGS for sweet Olivia:

he got suddenly SHY when I went to get the camera, and pulled his head and feet IN.

here's the underside of his shell:

Way to go Renee!!!!! You get em girl!

Did ya'll hear Patrick Swayze is sick with pancreatic cancer? How sad.

LOL Greta how do you think I get anything done with Olivia? We sing Teamwork! The Wonderpets are pretty dang cute, we watch them all the time plus have the movies. Olivia wants to go to Petsmart all the time and says i'm getting a wok wok, and a shishy, and a tuddle,and a cat and a wonderpet! ( I think she means guinea pig LOL)

Sandy I saw that about Patrick Swayze, my dad died of pancreatic cancer as did his uncle. My dad was diagnosed and dead within 5 months. It's a sad sad thing I could tell you the horrors but don't even want to think about it again!
