Wednesday 2nd December, 38F, heavy overcast. Yesterday was cancelled. I was having a 30 hour dizziness spell. It started suddenly as I was typing. My head started spinning and kept it up for 30 hours. Constant nausea. Nothing to eat. Sipping only a tiny drop of water at intervals. Splitting headache one moment. Lighter at other times.
Roaring tinnitus in one ear. Freezing to shivering regardless of how many down garments I put on. Or was covered with, by The Head Nurse. I slept on and off when I could. Lying down was harder because the room spun even with eyes closed. If I turned, I felt as if I would throw up. Finally, I sipped a little ground rice for the first food in 32 hours.
I was up at six this morning and still weak and wobbly. I had a little muesli then went giddy as soon as I looked at the computer screen. The muesli stayed down as I sat in the armchair all bundled up in down again. I enjoyed elevenses of coffee and rolls and that stayed down. I seem to have every symptom of Menier's Disease. Coming only a week after the last bout I am not a happy bunny.
