Just wanted to share so y’all cud get a laugh - so i was so excited that my MRI showed no new or active lesions that i forgot my existing lesions can still be a pain in my butt. That is until i got hit in the face like a brick with vertigo while i was on the toilet peeing.

Dam near fell off! It was hilarious.

Well I was standing in a small bathroom when I got vertigo and fell down and crashed against the sink and broke my watch as I tried to catch myself. I could feel myself falling, but was passing out on the way down.

It was not pretty. Thankfully the glass was tempered. More bruises than anything else

Thanks for asking, I’m just fine. I wasn’t really hurt, but was not happy that I broke the watch my son gave me for Father’s Day.

I hate when that happens not as bad but close to it when your at the dentist and you have to get up and you have to say let’s wait a minute so I can get my barings.

But yes the bathroom 🚽 is the worst.

Be careful

Maybe you should wear a helmet. Haha. I get vertigo periodically and it isn't funny.

I was totally thinking same thing with the helmet. Bright yellow one 😁

Had the same thing happen but I did fall off - while going! Obviously continued going...oh well - it could always be worse!

I have to be careful when I get up at night so that I don’t mess up my knee. I don’t need to twist and damage it.

Midgey_Midge06 thanks for the laugh, we need to laugh, rather than cry. I have had a migraine behind my left eye, haven't had one in 30 years, must be the stress of the Christmas season. MS has a way of throwing a wobbler at the most inappropriate moments. Blessings Jimeka 🦋 🌈 🤗

Gottcha on that one! Almost did it myself recently!!! Oh my! Got some of it right now, but not nearly so bad as a few days ago. Fresh MRI done today. Maybe soon I'll find out if there's something new going on upstairs. Always something new happening with this MonSter!
