[QUOTE="Mach1USMC, post: 11221066, member: 42788"] The weird thing for me is a lot of my co-workers have been sent home for a few days with nausea etc.... it first started with dizzyness along with lack of balance- then over the next few hrs I started getting nausea too. By the time I got home that evening (wed) I couldn't keep any food or drink down- even crackers and water. Fast fwd to Saturday- I've now lost 7 lbs and haven't eaten or had any liquids since Wed morning. The wife forces me to go to the ER and they give me several IV's.... they do their tests and CT scans and determine that I have BPPV and the steroids and valium should fix it- they sent me home to "sleep it off"- except the next morning the only thing that was better was the nausea a bit- I could actually eat and drink which was a good thing. As long as I'm sitting pretty still I'm good- as soon as I get up to move around the dizziness and lack of balance comes back. I can't walk more than a few feet without having to grab onto a wall or have someone guide me. I did get a cane which helps a lot- but I can't do hardly anything for myself it seems anymore. Even though I CAN work at home due to the type of work I do for my primary mission my Unit wants me present for the collateral duties I perform...... this just sucks. But no recent head injuries, no boxing, MMA, falls etc..... I did have a pretty bad case of heat stroke back in March but the Docs say that should have nothing to do with this. [/QUOTE]
