First I'd like to thank those who have posted well wishes in regards to my illness. That's nice to know there are people out there who really care. 

I met with a surgeon today for his opinion (a second opinion) on which procedure should be done.  He thinks the shunt will help me most.  He does all other ear surgeries but that one so he referred me to a different surgeon.  He does a shunt procedure that closes the fluid sac in my inner ear forever.  Then I can't have the fluid build up lessening if not taking away my dizziness. From what I understand it is possible it will not help my imbalance but there is a good chance it will.  I am game for anything at this point.  Living day to day not being able to plan ahead because you never know if you will be able to walk let alone lift your head off the pillow is just incredibly stressful.  Of course stress leads to more attacks so no pressure there. LOL  My appointment is on April 22nd so not too far away. The surgeon works out of the new hospital so less risk of post op infection.  That makes me feel better since they will be exposing my brain during surgery.

Man I am thankful for Bit Comet!  I have been keeping my mind off things by watching films while I seed. I have downloaded a few easy kids games since the pressure in my head causes brain fog.  The heavy duty action games make my head spin. LOL  I am looking forward to being able to play them again once I have surgery.

That's all the news here. BIT COMET RULZ!
