Hate being sick

I finaly decided to see a doctor regarding my dizziness. Having a flu made it worse. While it wasn't like the merry-go-round-kind of dizziness, it was still enough to make me feel uncomfortable. My head would feel heavy and I feel like I would fall anytime soon.

So after lunch today we headed to the clinic just inside the Berjaya Times Square. I remember seeing it near the exit signs on the fifth floor.

I was glad the doctor was very nice and listened to my woes. But at first he asked me if I were pregnant. He said the dizziness can be a sign of pregnancy. I told him I did a test already and it was negative.

He listened and asked questions but he couldn't pinpoint the problem. He checked my blood pressure and it was normal. He also checked my sugar level and it was fine. He asked me if I have palpitations and I said yes sometimes. He said it's called the anxiety attack. It may have something to do with it but he couldn't be too sure. He prescribed me some medicines but advised me to see a neurologist or an opthalmologist if I still feel dizzy again. It's either my brains are acting up or just my eyes needing a higher grade eyeglasses.

When he said neurologist, I got scared. It's for brains right? I hope it's just about my eyes. In fact, I know it's just about my eyes :)

I am taking the medicines now and it's helping. I don't have that heavy feeling in the head most of the time. I just notice that if I stay longer in my laptop, that's when I get those dizziness.

I am going to an opthalmologist next week. Hopefully everything will be alright again. I hate to be sick.
