I just went through the wierdest thing like ever. 

See, for the past week or so, I've been getting *extreemly* dizzy.  Like you wouldn't belive.  I can't even stand up.  So, I'm kinda freaking out.  A while back I went to the optomitrist, and despite my excellent vision, my eyes have a hard time working together.  I think it's because my right eye is stronger (20-15 vision) but I'n not really sure.  So I immediality think that's the reason.  Well, it gets worse, and I end up going to the doctor for it.  We first go to the normal doctor.  We answer his questions and he makes me stand up.  He checks my balance.  Then he checks my eyes with the little light thing.  Perfect.  So, we do some blood tests. 

The gave me a Glucose Tolerance Test.  It's a test they give diabetics.  They pricked my finger and collected blood, then they gave me this drink that was basically 99% sugar 1% water.  Then they draw my blood.  Then I am told to come back 3 more times, with one hour intervals.  And I can't eat anything.  And I couldn't have eaten before this.  I hadn't eaten since the previous night.  So, while I'm waiting the first hour, I have a visit schedueled at the actual hospital (I'm just at the clinic now) so I go and I'm informed that I have to take a cat-scan.  I'm assuming everyone knows what that is.  But they do it twice.  The first time is normal.  But the second time they have me hooked up to this i.v. type device pumpind dye into my bloodstream, it helps light up the capilaries in my head.  That was wierd. 

So, I leave and go get more blood drawn.  I do this two more times, with an hour in-between.  Then I freaking go eat 'cause it's already almost two and I'm starving.  So, I had like 6 pricks on my arms and hands.  I'm exausted.  I have no blood.  And the results don't come until the next day.

Well, I get the results from the blood work and I find out I'm Hypo-Glycemic.  I have extreemly low blood-sugar levels, and they drop after I eat, I cant hardly retain any sugar.  I still havn't got the cat-scan tesults back, but I doubt any of this is affected by my brain.  I want them back so bad because for years, like since I've been 6 or 7, I've had a whole array or nervious tics.  The two most common are squinting and this little caugh that I just barely do.  And they've been increasing in severity over the summer.  It's really annoying.

Anyway, I have to go on this diet so I won't be weak, dizzy, or irratible.  Yes, irritably is a symptom, and I have been dealing with that for years too, so maybe this will help.

Discuss!
