Nightly Goodnight Everyone

Drop in and dribble on about nothing serious. Seriously a mad place to hang out. Better to avoid it if you're not in the mood!!! If you're determined to be sad, bad, mad & angry then move along!!!

Try the home made anti Vertigo manoeuvre. Lots of YouTube videos. Basically roll your head a special way to get the crystals back into their correct position.

No David, have not had Covid so I can tick that one off.

Jon, as I mentioned, blood pressure is normal. I have been taking anti biotics for infected leg and I have been exercising my neck since late August and I don't like the thought of your 2nd reason.

[EDIT] Just checked blood pressure again 141/89

George, my best suggestion would be to go to a GP and have a thorough medical check up. Get your bloods done and a full heart health check.
Cheers

I have no idea on your medical condition but my mother went through similar for several years & at times did faint/collapse on the floor.
Dr put her on Epilim (sp?) & no more problems.

Good morning. As someone who has had hypertension problems since 1977 I now take advice from GP, cardiologist and vascular surgeon. If you must check B/p only do it once a week as it will react as it does when you go to DR- most times it be elevated just thinking about it. Folk our age, or any age, should have a full checkup yearly. YOUR BODY, tell your DR when you want something checked and do not let them dissuade you. Stay healthy and get your checkups.
Time is passing too quickly so live life to the full with your spouse/partner while you still have she/he by your side.

Thank you All, I have an appointment with GP for 11am tomorrow.
Bruce, I am normally fit and active, for a 76 year old, apart from slight emphysema and inhale medication for that. The only other medication is a quite mild Statin.
I actually took a quick 2.5 km walk yesterday without a problem.

George,

A CT brain scan and a carotidic artery ultrasound will rule it in or out.

G got some more garden work done today so after we get the mulch stuff I think we should be right for a while. I watched the story of my favorite singer tonight, Andrea Bocelli, he is touring Aust and I tried to get tickets but it was not to be as it was sold out, but I will see him in concert before I fall off the perch (I hope) Just had my pudding (custard) and Brian has also had his, he loves custard . I'm off to physio tomorrow after the second roof person comes to give his quote :) Hope everyone is safe and dry, How did you get on with the Dr NC George? Brians food was delivered this arvo so he eats for a few more months. Bed time soon so Goodnight everyone x Goodnight Deborah x :D Hope all is going well the the old fella. x
