Do you get vertigo with fibro or do you think it could be my meds suddenly causing this?

Felt terrible for about 5 hours this morning. The ground kept coming up to meet me and I felt like I couldn't focus properly. If I closed my eyes whilst stood up I almost fell over. Really horrible. Thankfully it's eased off to just a mild dizziness now.

    I don't have fibro but I'd guess it could be either or both, Fols, and it would be a good idea to get it checked out.
    If at first you don't succeed, then skydiving definitely isn't for you.

    If you fall over onto him, that should scare him back :wink:

    Lmao, I would probably kill him, if I didn't crush him he would probably suffocate under my ample boobs as it would take me forever to get up.

    Sounds like a plan to me. If he lives, he changes your meds. If he doesn't survive the experience, you get a new doc. Success either way :lol:
