I’ve had a miserable few days or perhaps I should say few weeks. My Crohn’s disease has been acting up and I haven’t slept well for weeks. Well that is, until that last few days at least.

I think my body or brain has finally given in and allowed me to get some sleep over the last few days as I’ve been falling asleep while watching TV with my husband and not waking up until the early morning hours. That’s really unusual for me!

The other strange problem I’ve been having over the last week or so is dizziness. Perhaps it was due to lack of sleep. I certainly couldn’t think of any other reason for it other than perhaps my medications, a virus or low blood pressure. The dizziness was so bad on Sunday that even while lying down I’d get the spins if I’d move my head from side to side. I also had the strange bout of nausea last Tuesday.

I’ll be seeing both my pain doctor and my family doctor in two weeks, but if I continue to have these strange dizzy spells and other symptoms I’ll make an earlier appointment with the family doc.

So if there’s a few gaps in my posts it’s just because I’m not feeling that great. I’m still here, still checking my mail and keeping track of what’s going on.
