What's on your mind?

[Owlette]

I also get blurry vision, dizziness laying in bed and one time it got so bad that I felt like I was going to collapse.

I've had anxiety all my life but I never had something like this before...

Keep us posted. Sounds like an inner ear problem vs a circulation issue.

There's a doctor shortage where I live. Most of my area's doctors live in the cities where they can make more money.

Oooh, I am so very sorry. Truth be told, we also have a shortage for doctors too, but not as severe. I pray you get to see one soon.

Really nice to know that the almighty dollar is bigger than the Hippocratic Oath.

I've had bad experiences with doctors in the past and I have been rather hesitant to go to the doctors about the dizziness and such. It might be a few days before I can get a doctor.

yeah... whatever happened to wanting to help people in need?

Well, you do have a point. I don't trust many doctors myself for many reasons, really. I'll be praying for you.

I'll be praying for you.

Thank you. Even now my sense of balance is making me sway my head around and it's rather unsettling.

I hope everything is okay! How close is the nearest ER?

Does laying down help? I tend to feel that way when I have a migraine and for me laying down doesn't help at first, but then I fall asleep and seems much better when I wake up.

I'm going to head to the hospital on Wednesday. It's a long walk there so I will have to get my mother to drive me there on my day's off.

I've had a couple nights where I would lay down and the dizziness would make it feel like the room is kind of spinning. Last night was rather odd too where there was limited light in the room and I was still awake. If I kept my eyes open for too long, the room would get even darker until I blinked. After blinking, it would go back to its original illumination only to darken again. Rinse and repeat. I don't know what to make of that.

 

[SarahsKnight]

Wait...

You have to wait for the hospital!? For an appointment!? that is so backwards to what I'm used to here in Canada!

I'm so sorry >.<

I figured as much. That Canada was better all around when it comes to healthcare. A certain someone was no doubt trying to convince me to stay home in America by claiming that the trade-off in Canada was that, there, you would often have to be waiting for even emergency care, and it'd be of sketchier quality.

Well, glad you are at least going to get this issue looked at. I just wish you weren't actually having to wait on it.

Oh okay. I was under the impression that this was a sudden onset and required 911 attention, like you were having a stroke. I would still recommend going in as soon as possible.

Sounds a bit serious to me, I'll be praying for you in the meantime and hope you get the care you need.

Better than America, yes However, there are rumors that the government wants to change our healthcare system and aim it towards the privileged rather than first come first serve (in minor emergencies). In the end, it all comes down to money.

In my country, waiting for healthcare is the norm.

Nah, it's not likely to be life threatening. I'm still concerned enough to check it out. After talking some more, I might get it checked out tomorrow or Wednesday.

I'm going for a nap now. I've been in at least nine situations where I could've died but God pulled me through. I highly doubt He's going to let me pass on from this.

That's too bad. I hope the rumors do not become truth.

I am weary Lord.
I want to give up...and rest.


I need to find a local church with more loving members, preferably one I can walk to. I could just say, if they ask... I've run out of petrol I can't afford to go to church anymore.

 

[SarahsKnight]

Yeah. Sometimes we get to feeling that way. But, it never hurts to ask the Lord for a little rest from wearisome troubles in life.

I don't think I can achieve either one of these

I don't know if we can ever truly achieve it, at least to perfection, ... but we can sure as heck try.

Stopping in to say hey! I went e-ring shopping this past weekend, I'm engaged again. Wedding plans not until spring of next year. He's the one. Even though I don't believe in 'the one' and all that, well maybe I do. okay, I'm tired. lol Blessings to you all, hugs and hope things are going well for you all here.

Cutting down on assets to become more minimalist can be a challenge alright.
