The ditz is almost back to her usual self
26 March 2008 by Two Crazy DogsThanks again for all of your comments. Last night I went to bed with extra pillows to prop myself up instead of lying flat on the bed. I was propped at 45 degrees, slept quite alright. I was awake a few times reason being I was so conscious of not laying on my right side since each time I lay on my right side, the pressure in my head get really bad. So, this morning I woke up feeling much, much better. Not sure is it because of how I propped myself up or just the vertigo thing is going away. DB still drove me to work even I felt better. He wants to drive me just to make sure in case the dizziness strikes me hard while I was driving.
Work was fine provided that I was not looking down too much and not swing myself around the chair too fast.
I even took the boys for their walk when I got home. I told DB I was getting better. The boys were one happy puppies. Bouncing off the driveway all the way and back. The only problem I had when i got home was cleaning them where I had to bend down to clean them. At least they are well behaved that they allowed me hold on to them - more like putting my weight of my left hand on them.
If I’m not getting better, than I would be dog gone lying. I had to cook dinner coz DB had to take a nap. When I told him what we would be having noodles for dinner, he said “Noodles again?” Yep, unless you cook dinner. I cooked the wanton mee with the left over pork chops we grilled on Sunday with steamed broccolli. I told myself I just feel glad that I’m not feeling whoozy anymore. Went up and down the basement with no problems.
Tonight I will still sleep propped up. Oh, that damn dentist case, I called them yesterday to cancel the appointment telling there is no one to take me there since I can’t drive. They can charge me that $50 they want coz I won’t be calling them again for another appointment. I even asked her where on the reminder card they sent me was there the $50 cancellation fee if not call withing 24 hours written for their customers to know. She said it should be on the card they sent, and I told her I was holding the card and tell me where it is. She didn’t even know where it is and put me on hold. Is she blond you think? She came back about 5 minutes later telling me the cancellation fee policy is actually written on the little appointment card given by the hyginiest. J.C. sister, that card was long gone after I put the appointment on my Outlook calendar. That stupid policy on a small little appointment card, the size of a business card. They should have put that policy on the reminder email and card they sent out. What idiots. I told the receptionist her dental office will not hear from me again. She quickly said she will not charge me this time but take it as a warning. Well, thanks, but you still will not see me again.
I have to say they are trying to get the money from their customers as much as they can to pay for the big ass building they bought and all the brand spanking new furniture and renovation they did. They are losing one very loyal customer, had been with this dentist the year I arrived in MN. I should write them a note to put mine and hubby’s accounts to the inactive pile.

Gertrude’s last blog post..Chicken Wrapped in Pandan
Hi Gertrude, that was what the doc told me too. I’m feeling better now but still not 100%. I’m hoping it will go away sooner.

Thanks, Jam. I’m feeling better but still not 100%. Hopefully by next week I will not have this “cloud” over my head.
