My ear problems caused my Vertigo

When i was about 5 i started having very bad and painful inner ear problems.

My mom did everything from eardrops,earplugs.It was hard to be a child and have a hard time swimming couse you could not get the inside of your ears wet.And winter’s were worse i had to were 2scarfs,ear muff’s couse i could not get wind in my ears. So this went on up until i was 10yrs old.And then i started getting realy bad migrains and it was just unnormal for a 10yr old to be getting such bad migrains as i was.

So we wen’t to the family docter and checked it out,they just said take sum headache med’s and you will be better in no time. Well it did not work like that,long story short i had vertigo and it was unsceane to the docters eye’s i guess. And the symptoms were unbareable,the dizzy spell’s and i could not hold anything down,could not walk without falling cuz the room was spinning,bright lights botherd me,and i missed so much school.

When i would get sick it would last up to a week the longest was 9days.Ive gotten vertigo 4times since i was 10.Im 16 know and last time i had it i was 14 going on 15.Im 16 know and after the new year im getting inner ear surgery.They found out the cuz it was becous i had 2 holes in my right ear drum.So to solve the hole problem there gonna cover them,and pray that it works how it supposed to.

    I started out with an eye problem a little more than a month ago. Went to the eye doctor, she said that cells were clogged under the eyelid and eye was scratched. She did ask me if I had been feeling extra tired, but I leaned towards saying no, because of my age, I just figured tired means that I’m 56 now… [more..]
