I'm feeling a little queasy.

[LeftyFingerPop]

Well, maybe queasy is not the right word.

Kind of dizzy-like, with a little queasiness also. Maybe like half queasy, half-dizzy. Also, there may be a little vertigo in there too.

I guess the best way to describe it is one-third queasy, one-third dizzy, and one-third vertigo. Actually, there is a bit of nausea in there also. Not much, but just a little.

So actually, the feeling is more like 33 % dizzy, 33 % vertigo, 23% queasy, and 10% nausea.

The problem is, the feeling does not remain constant. Sometimes the percentages will shift slightly, and that will send me into a panic attack.

1. Oh, I forgot to tell you...

I also have a little arm pain too. Maybe 5% of the total discomfort that I am currently experiencing.

Well, let's say 5 to 10 percent, it's hard to say exactly. Probably take the average of the two and call it 7.5% of the total discomfort. Well, round it up and say 8% of my total discomfort is due to arm pain. Right around there...8%.

3. Welcome to my world.

Not uncommon for me to have all those symptoms...x(

[LeftyFingerPop]

5. Do you assign percentages to them?

[TZ]

6. Not yet...

[LeftyFingerPop]

9. It is. It is better when you don't use a calculator.

4. Anyone who would do that is crazy.

7. You're pregnant. Or you're having a stroke.

The percentage-assigning is a further symptom of that.

[LeftyFingerPop]

10. Pregnancy makes you assign percentages?

[jobycom]

14. Yes.

I'm almost 97% sure.

[LeftyFingerPop]

15. So like...96.6 to 96.7?

Somewhere in that area?

[jobycom]

18. How would I know? I'm not pregnant.

[LeftyFingerPop]

22. Are you 100% sure about that?

[jobycom]

25. 99.8% The .02% is because of that dude who keeps getting pregnant.

8. Sounds to me like you're fishing for an excuse

To get a prescription for medical mary jane.

[LeftyFingerPop]

11. Mary jane makes me kind of.....I don't know...it's hard to describe...

kind of queasy and dizzy, with a vertigo-like sensation.

19. Sounds like the latest plague to hit the MG household

The first stages are queasy/dizzy for a day, then that goes away. Then an ache down in the inner ear (by the jawline). Then a couple of days later--blam--full-on headcold with the largest amount of rainbow-colored mucus this side of The Stand. Enjoy! :hi:

(Sorry--can't speak for the arm pain...)

[LeftyFingerPop]

21. Jesus! I hope that stuff ends soon!

:hi:

[MorningGlow]

23. It's not gone yet, and it's been about a week

Sorry to be the bearer of bad tidings! :( MG Jr., a.k.a. Typhoid Kidlet, brought it home from kingergarten and it flowered on Thanksgiving. I got the dizzies on Friday and am still suffering, mainly because I'm the chief nose-wiper. Mr. MG, who avoids the kid's illnesses like a typical guy (snarf), still came down with it--had the dizzies yesterday and is snurfling today. So we don't have a projected end date, as we're all still in the middle of it.

Meanwhile, I haven't been able to do any Christmas shopping, and getting a tree this weekend is right out. Sigh.

[LeftyFingerPop]

24. That sounds terrible...

My best wishes for a speedy recovery to you all :hug:
