So if you've read any of my blogs, you may have picked up on the ear/dizzy/vomit thing I throw in there from time to time... I finally got a diagnosis of Meniere's Disease. It has something to do with fluid in my inner ear, and other boring details. I'm supposed to eat low low sodium food (bleh), no caffeine, limited alcohol, and a diuretic pill. I'm like the old people eating low salt and taking meds for their blood pressure! I think I'm on the same pill as my father-in-law. Way to make me feel old, thx.
On one hand, I'm happy to have a diagnosis of something that can be manageable and isn't gonna kill me.
On the other hand, I haven't managed it yet, and sodium-free food is gross. I love coffee soooo much, and I don't know how I'm going to find another hobby I love as much as eating good food and the caffeinated/alcoholic beverages that go along with them. That's hard. I used to restrict my diet to an unhealthy level, and I don't want to fall back into that pattern.
It used to be my weird obsession with food restriction... but now it might save me? Strange... I have to get used to this. and the disgusting food.
Anyway... that's the update. I'd love to hear from anyone who has dealt with Meniere's or has any insights\

Wow! Bummer about the diagnosis!
ReplyDeleteGood luck with your dietary restrictions. I'm sure once you get use to it, the restrictions won't be as burdensome.
Happy December!
Thanks Karen, I'm sure I'll get creative and find stuff to eat... on a side note, I'm losing weight like crazy, so we'll see what happens with that. Unintended side effect! But I'll take it ;)
ReplyDeleteI came across your post and I could not help but comment. My husband had this well has but his symptoms are completely gone since he started eating low sodium. We both started eating low sodium and get a lot of food from healthy heart market. It is an online food retailer that ships everything right to your door.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the encouragement :) I am so glad to hear that there is a chance for my symptoms to go away! I'm going to check out the online shopping you suggested

Most prostate cancers are adenocarcinomas, cancers that arise in glandular cells of the prostate’s epithelial tissue. Prostate cancers usually progress slowly and produce no symptoms in the initial stages. Eventually, the tumor may enlarge like mine use too, the prostate gland, pressing on the urethra and causing painful or frequent urination and blood in the urine.
