Not good at this (long read)

[Jakesfish]

A week ago monday, I was working from home, and transposing info from paper to computer. I had a sheet of paper fall from my lap to the floor, and as I reached for it, I became very dizzy. I managed to catch myself, and not faceplant the floor. as soon as I was able I went to my car and drove to local fire station. (Not smart on my part). and wobbled in and told them what was happening. I explained what happened, and how I felt. the immediately hooked up a ekg, and took blood pressure sat me down and went to work. blood sugar normal, no sign of heart issue from ekg, but blood pressure was 189/107. so here we go to the hospital, as I am riding in I started to suffer from dry heaves.. They rolled me in and started a battery of test. they are saying they think I am having a stroke. and started checking eye movements, physical abilities. c/t scan, MRI, X-Rays, and blood tell them no heart issues, no stroke, BUT when the lay me flat, I started dry heaving again, and felt the bed and room start spinning. so more head x-rays, and questions. Have you hit your head.?? (No).. x-ray shows trauma to rt ear and a ruptured inner ear.. so they did a procedure, and stood me up, No go almost fell, well sir, you because of the damage to inner ear have Vertigo.. I cant drive, walk straight, or do anything where I bend over, question to masses, can I ask for prayers, and has any fellow green screen brothers and sisters had this, and how long did it last... Long read thanks for allowing me to vent here..

Prayers up for you. Had a co-worker who had it and he was out for about 3 weeks before they cleared him to go back to work offshore.

Jake, I don't know anything about vertigo, but we'll be praying for you. Let me know if there's anything you need help with.

Prayers.

I have had Vertigo 3 times and I would not wish that on my worst enemy.

I had that before with the same conditions, they did some movement with my head in certain postions and realigned the stuff in my ears and felt great afterwards see if your doc can look it up for you

Prayers up brother!!

Sorry Jake, never had a ruptured ear drum or vertigo, so no help there. I will however be praying for your recovery and that you will never be bothered with this issue in the future. Sorry for you problems.

Prayers sent for full recovery. Glad you were able to get help when you did. Do you remember injuring your ear? What about your blood pressure? Do you take medicine to regulate it? Get well man. Bow season is less than 3 months away.

I feel for you, had a similar but not so severe incident a couple of days ago, all I did was use my pinkie finger to attempt to scratch my inner ear, the wife had to help me from the den into the bed. Doc flushed a couple pounds of ear wax out of both ears and I was good to go. I shoulda known better, I know my ears produce as much wax as a small candle factory.
