Hi

Hope your all well.  Its been a tough week, started on sunday feeling very nauseas on and off al l day then the dizziness started and has gone on all week.  yesterday and today have been awful. Also having head, neck and tops of shoulders hurt, I feel like I just came off of a fair ride, like me and things are moving and my vision has been off some.  My neck muscles on the left side hurt when I touch them.  I was wondering if the full moon could be causing this to be so bad this week.  I've seen on some other boards that people are complaining that this weeks has been worse for them.  Does anyone feel with the moon fullness this week you have been worse?

Thanks

    Do you have a cold virus by any chance. Mine is worse, but I do have an upper respiratory thing going on. But temps -mid south US- are going up by 50 degrees and then dropping the next day by 50 degrees F(that probably messes with all our heads. Vertigo and migraines) it is worse when I close my eyes, but I want to sleep because I'm sick.

      I dont think I have a cold, but its been going thru my house for 2 weeks and on sunday I felt like I was getting a flu, achey all over and dizzy like a mad person.  But the dizziness this week is just going on and on, maybe a flare, its so hard to tell what causes what with all this.  I hoped the propranolol I'm on was helping because I had a few good days last week, but my doc said I have to get to the theraputic dose of 80mgs and i'm only on 40 right now.  

      I hope you feel better and get some sleep.

      I feel exactly the same, when I move to quickly it takes a few seconds for my vision to catch up, I have a cold and cough, would this be causing the problem?

      I have certainly felt worse. But I can't tell if it's the virus or the vertigo, or the extreme temp changes. And probably all of they above.

      Hi hayhue

      Thank you, how are you feeling? Better I hope. I was doing a bit better but this past week was a doozy. I think that full moon had something to do with as soon as it disappeared I felt a little better. I'm slowly upping the propranolol I'm on still have 40 mgs to go to get to theraputic dose but very hopeful. At least it's helping my anxiety which was crippling me. I'll def be paying attention the next full moon.

    I have been dizzy all the past week, it started easing off this weekend.  I will be watching out for a full moon in future to see what happens.

      Hi

      I'll be paying close attention to the next full moon to, I noticed as soon as it disappeared I felt better. Funny how that can cause so much havoc, but as soon as it appeared I was a mess.
