Hi Sam

I'm sorry you are having such a difficult time. I am in the UK too and the snow has just hit!

I hope you manage to get to the hospital soon. I know that the thought of being kept in is scary but maybe it would be for the best?! - I bet hubby and kids would cope absolutely fine and who knows, maybe you would get the help and the diagnosis that you need.

I wish you good luck and please take care

I joined the collective group holding their breath.  If I had seen this in real time I would have been screaming at you to go to the ER.  What you are describing DOES NOT SOUND LIKE VERTIGO!!!  I fear it might be something worse.

If you didn't go to get medical care, then we'll send Joe over to wring your neck!

Thanks, for being there for her, Joe!

Hoping all is all right.

Please go to hospital. Please please please!!! You need to write as soon as you find out something. I had facial numbness over the holiday and I was having a severe episode, but I did not have vertigo or numbness in any of my limbs. Please write asap to tell us how you are!

I hope you have gone to the ER, Sam!!  

Am I gonna have come over there!!!!  I'm not a very good swimmer so it might take me awhile.

You've been through so much in the last two years, but you just can't take any chances.  Listen to Joe, if you won't listen to me!!!

I love you sweetheart and am really worried.  You can't let this go until tomorrow!!!

Hugs,

You are now part of our family so I will treat you the same way I would treat a member of my family - MISSY - you need to get on the phone NOW & call that GP!  I think it is day time there now so you don't have to worry about calling them in the middle of the night.  You NEED help NOW!!!  Have your ex-husband drive you to the doctors or ER & have him keep your children.  You would not want one of them to have this happen to them & not get help.  PLEASE do something while you can - if not for you then for those little girls!

OK - enough from your bossy new sister  :)

Take care of you.

I see you both are located in the UK.  I'd like to compare notes on the good and bad of doctors there, and here in the US where I am another time.

For now, I am glad to see a friend for Sam in her part of the world.

Morning Sam, Please Take My Advice And Call Your Out Of Hours GP Or NHS Direct
What You Describe Is Certainly Not Menieres It Is Definatly Something More Serious.
I Know What You Mean About Certain Doctors Looking At You As Tho You Are Beneath Them But Try And Not Let That Stop You From Getting Help TODAY In Fact This MORNING.
What You Are Describing Needs Hospital Attention ASAP.
Take Care And look After Yourself.
Regards Joe.

Your typing is a bit broken.  Did you say you can't walk at all, are dizzy and numb on one side?  If so, you should see a doctor or emergency room as soon as possible.
