I feel like I’d be in a good place we’re it not for my moms health issues and my health issues. It kind of seems like as soon as I adjust to a new chronic condition I get another, more worrying one. I’ve had bouts of dizziness since January but over the past two weeks it’s gone from a thing that lasts seconds to a thing that lasts hours or the whole day. Trying not to freak out about it but doctors aren’t being very helpful. I’m seeing an ENT next week so hopefully that will lead to some forward action. I need to try to be firmer with this one and not just let them shrug their shoulders and send me on my way like other doctors kind of have. I might research possible causes, which is going to be really scary but whatever, just so I can list them off to the ENT and force them consider and address each one.

It might just also be stress because my mom was just sick to the point where I thought maybe she was gonna die. It’s the third time that’s happened. But the stress is over so I don’t know why it would be sticking around like this.
