Just when i thought i was getting up the hill and doing pretty good, i fall back down. I just moved in a bigger house from a two bedroom apt with two kids and me sleeping in the living room. Was just made v p of my church and trying to get us to walk in the Memorial Day parade, and know i start not feeling good again. The back of my head is bothering me, and when i lay on my right side it hurts to lay on the pillow, i've been getting dizzy feeling or like i'm gonna past out. the tingling in my head and down my spine and the feeling of fluid in my head and face. It first started out with the cracking sound in the back of the head, now it just hurt. i'm in the south lyon, ann arbor area. i have seen one ns from novi and did not have any look, does any one know of any good ones around this area? i just had a echo done and have to wait for the results
Are you in Michigan? I live in Oklahoma and now I see Dr. Heffez in Milwaukee Wisconsin. Highly recommend him. There is a list on the site of recommended Doctors somewhere. I hope you get to feeling better. We just have to fight and try not to allow the bad days to keep us knocked down.( I am speaking this to myself as well) Hang in there! Today I was proud of myself for just taking a shower. It was about all I could do. Holding on until my surgery soon… Good luck and God Bless!!!
The Best NS in Michigan is Dr. Kenneth Casey . He assisted Dr. Peter Jannetta in my MVD Surgery and my daughter and I fell in love with him. He was Dr. Jannetta's partner in Pittsburgh when I saw him. He talked to my daughter for over an hour to make sure she was comfortable with my surgery then gave me better driving directions home because his son went to Military School close by. I know you a saying a nice guy does not necessarily make a great NS. True, but he was trained under Dr Jannetta at the Univ. of Pitt. and you can read more about him @ http://www.drkencasey.net/why.html . There are three NS in this country I would ever let operate on me again and Dr. Casey is #1 based solely on skill, intelligence, personality.( Dr. Jannetta is retired & just doing research.) I know this is a little farther than you wanted but I wouldn't go to anyone else.
