So Marc and I have both created Wish Lists. It was sorta fun and will make it easier on family for holidays and birthdays. Just click on the links on the left. Check out the titles of our lists...we didn't plan it that way! LOL
I survived the MRI today. I should know results soon and will let everyone know. It wasn't bad, but I can see why people struggle with it. Since it was on my brain, I only had to go part way in, but it was pretty crazy. Luckily, I had Switchfoot to listen to. =) The specialist I saw Tuesday wants to do a test called an ENG to pinpoint the source of my vertigo. Until then, I'm on medicine to control the dizziness and am hoping for some relief. I feel great today, but I also felt great Sunday night before I almost passed out again at school on Monday. Just pray for continued relief and/or guidance in how to proceed with going back to work. I don't want to scare my kids again, yet they need to keep learning. Time will tell. My health is first! Here's two links that sort of better explain my condition:

The test I'll be getting in 2 weeks:

Talk to you all soon!

Well, Steph I have been there done that with the vertigo. You probably had a virus and the germ stayed in your ear and caused the problem. It will take a couple of weeks to overcome, hopefully with medicine. Are you on antivert? I know the nausea associated with the vertigo is just about as bad as the dizziness. Of course the dizziness is what causes the nausea. Anyways, I will be praying for you. You poor thing. Best thing to do is just rest.
Love,
Marybeth
Thanks for the comment. I am doing better and can feel the medicine working. I was on antivert for a little bit but then needed something stronger. Today was my first day back at work, and I did fine! =) Time will tell. See you soon!
