Given how my doctor has an interest in diagnosing me with something that will go away on it's own with no intervention, and keeps cutting me off as I list the details about symptoms I forgot last time or only went over vaguely due to a sudden attack of wobblyness, I asked the internet and it was reassuring.
( Possibilities according to webMD - it took about twnety minutes to put all the symptoms in, no wonder the doctor always wants me to stop talking. I don't know whether they're in any order, but I numbered them for convenience. )
... Well, none of those are fatal, some of them go away by themselves, and the worst result in pretty much what's going on now, though the mood-swings might get worse. So, I guess I don't have to worry if it takes forever to get a diagnosis, eh? I'll live.
It's not often that looking stuff up on the internet makes people feel less worried rather than more, eh?
Only thing - I couldn't work out how to put in 'I fall over sometimes for no reason, but am awake'. Bah.
Feel free to comment with advice, psudo-advice, and ruminations on interactions with the medical world in general, or anecdotes about stuff under the cut. I want some human interaction here, guys! The last person to talk to me on msn was someone I knew from school, and she wanted to know if the thing that my mum had told her mum was true, and she signed off not long after I said it was.
