This Week

Mine isn't really bad, but it's increased. Not sure if that's helpful or not!

Depending on where you are in the country could it be due to a change in weather/humidity? Allergies could amplify issues with inner ear swelling that effect so many of us with this disease.
Almost all of us are safe from the General Mills huge flour recall but if you are not gluten free please check that.

No, I haven't been doing much anyway, as my adrenals are being a pain in the arse!! Although I have been slowly increasing my detoxing, hoping that will help - and trying to get more sleep! LOL!

You could also have food allergies. I have an allergy to soy, which prevents me from eating out at most places, although more and more restaurants are catching on and providing "allergy menus".

As Jrpsf suggested, I'm watching for other signs of allergies (my least favorite plant, ragweed, is in bloom!!).

I've been most fortunate to never get food poisoning, but from what I understand, you'd have no doubt if you had it!

Thank You ALL for such wonderful suggestions, ideas and for sharing your own experiences. Really means a lot! The dizziness has lessened today - YAY- I am going to look into everything that was mentioned here, for sure. I,too, don't fare well with restaurant food. I am pretty good about most foods and know my sensitivities and allergy triggers, but one never knows what really lurks inside one's food and how hygienic a restaurant is, either - that scares me. P. my yeast/ fungal situation is under control at the moment, but who knows what is inside my inner ear. I know that on Monday when I was washing my hair, my right ear kept plugging up with water - over and over again. It is so weird because I usually never have that problem.

HI PeteZa - I can relate so well well to what you wrote. I just wish that there were some decent places where one can go and pick up a healthy meal once in a while - be it if and when one's having a feel bad day or just too tired to cook for the family or when you just want a break from the kitchen. I am a foodie, but there are times that I just don't want to cook! Here where I live it is basically take out chicken or pizza and none of them use organic and kosher stuff we use at home- you right it is the cheapest flour or produce or spices or chicken etc. The older I get, the more disappointed I am with eating out or take out. And, yeah, my gut is never happy afterwards, either ( not surprising though).

Ahhh, the good ole days, PeteZa.....where I once enjoyed, savored, devoured, frolicked in the land of juicy BBQ'd burgers...striploin steaks....crispy fries..cheezy, gooey pastas...meatballs.... ribs, hot sauce'd chicken wings...ballpark franks....pizzas with double cheese and pepperoni....fresh baked bread with butter....chips...cheese.......yeah, all that grub kids love to eat. (I did eat veg on the side along with all that stuff, but it didn't save me)....... and, Voila - this is what happens to you when you hit 52-----gallbladder/liver pangs, pancreas/spleen pangs, heartburn........indigestion.....funny how when one is Much younger, one never really thinks about consequences ( related to food choices).

PeteZa, I forgot to mention BACON! How I loved me some BLT's back then! Actually, I loved BACON on EVERYTHING! Now, I am only supposed to smell it....wawa....

I use these when I have to have bacon bits.

Well, I was hopeful for a bit there, PeteZa! But as usual they are made with soy, so no bacon bits for me.
