Bad night

So it's been a while since I wrote, I've just kind of accepted this as normal.  But I recently found out that there are others out there battling these same issues and coming across this blog.  I can't believe it's been almost 3.5 years since I started seeing doctors!  And I remembered the dizziness while pregnant as well, so about 4.5 years with symptoms. 
I haven't been to any doctors lately in regards to this.  The recent MRA didn't show anything new.  The neuro I saw (new one) suggested I take dramamine (or the equivalent).  It made things WORSE, so I didn't do that for long.  I decided just to live with it, hoping that once James is weaned (June 1), my body will settle down.
I have removed wheat from my diet and I was hoping that this would solve it.  But tonight has been a rough night.  I fought through getting my work done.  But I will probably head to bed early, after I finish everything else of course.  I don't use caffeine, never liked coffee or coke much.  I have been eating super healthy.  One thing I think I might try is to get more salt into my diet.  Apparently when going low carb this can be an issue.  I don't think it's related, but who knows.  If I'm not feeling better by the end of the summer, I'm going to go see a new doctor.  I heard of one in the area that suggests things other than meds, really looks at everything.  So we'll give that a try if need be.  I'm not really sure what life was like without worrying about dizziness.
