Guest guest Posted November 4, 2006 Report Share Posted November 4, 2006 Honey, I am sorry that I have never written to you. Your messages always reminds me of what I went through after explant. Stress still causes severe neurological symptoms and if someone is unkind to me, it really destroys me. We are so fragile, and for me this is strange because all of my life I have been the strong one. I have asked my to treat me like a piece of crystal because any toxic behaviour breaks me for days. I still have dizzy spells, but it is rare. Stay close. Love always............Lea ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~``` that dizzy monster Any of you have lingering vertigo after explant? I was feeling pretty good this week, actually less pain and fatigue than usual. Then last night I went to a memorial service for a wonderful woman who died suddenly and left behind a husband and two children. I was feeling emotional but not falling apart. Later that night, my sweetheart and I had one of our late-night talks (we shouldn't have, but it isn't always possible to plan these things). It ended well, but I noticed the Reynaud's symptoms act up while we were talking-- the numbness in the extremities, typical when I am cold or upset. Then, this morning I woke up with the spins. Dang! That again! Just when I think it's finally backing off, I experience some stress and bam! It knocks me down again. It SUCKS. It isn't even huge stress we're talking. I feel like this delicate little flower that wilts at the slightest nudge. It really cramps my style. I'm hoping it's a temporary setback-- like I said, I have been feeling some relief this past week. Bindi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The neurological damage is the worst part of it all for me, too. Funny, I used to take care of everyone else, and now I need people to take care of me in the sense that, like you, Lea, I'm so fragile. I've not had the 'dizzy monster' but hold on, Bindi, we all need to stay close and be kind. Hugs, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted November 5, 2006 Report Share Posted November 5, 2006 Lea, Thanks for the kind thought. It's funny, though I loathe being so "sensitive" to everything, it definitely helps me take extra good care of myself. Bindi that dizzy monster Any of you have lingering vertigo after explant?

Guest guest Posted November 18, 2006 Report Share Posted November 18, 2006 Bindi, I am not sure what exactly causes the dizziness, but I can make guesses that hormones and stress do. I experienced that for several year after explant. I am almost 9 years post explant, and I no longer get it. Only if I am very, very tired and stay up waaaay too late working or if I do not get enough sleep does it come back temporarily.
