		<title>The Spoon Theory</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I don&#8217;t know exactly when I first read &#8220;the spoon theory&#8221; &#8211; but WHEN I did, I knew &#8220;that&#8217;s me.&#8221;  I hope it&#8217;s okay to repost this here, it was originally posted at But you don&#8217;t look Sick.  Last I looked I wasn&#8217;t able find the writeup on the butyoudontlooksick.com site.  (Although [...]]]></description>

		<title>Another Spin, More Joint Pain and Possibly Rheumatoid Arthritis</title>
		<description><![CDATA[What a fun winter it&#8217;s been!  (Slight sarcasm.)  I enjoy snow and we&#8217;ve had it in spades this year in a way we haven&#8217;t seen for many years.  I haven&#8217;t really been able to enjoy it much though for the joint aches and pains which seem to be worse in the cold. [...]]]></description>

		<title>Spinning out of Control</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Sometimes it really feels as though if you change the routine just a little bit things go spinning out of control.  Side effects from one medicine, change the timing of something and everything falls to pieces.  For a long time I&#8217;ve been getting an allergy shot every other week (every second Monday.)

		<title>Goodbye October</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;m really glad to see October go.  I alternated in the month of October between working way to much and then spending the next week sick, then working way to much and the next week sick.  The first week I missed I thought was due to a mild case of H1N1, the second [...]]]></description>

		<title>Prednisone and Meniere&#8217;s Disease</title>
		<description><![CDATA[First off, I think I&#8217;ve finally managed to learn how to spell prednisone!  I was just about to call this prednasone and meniere&#8217;s disease&#8230; but I think I&#8217;ve finally got it straight.  (Although my spell checker thinks it&#8217;s wrong either way.  I guess I don&#8217;t have medicines in my spell checker?)
Anyway&#8230; I [...]]]></description>

		<title>Back from the Allergist &#8211; New Prescriptions to try to escape the Benedryl fog</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I don&#8217;t know how else to put it, but the benedryl fog.  The last month or 2 benedryl has helped to keep me from experiencing the worse stuffiness/tinnitus/spinning, but it&#8217;s making me feel like a zombie.  I take a full dosage in the evening around bed time, but several days I have also [...]]]></description>

		<title>Take medicine and live with the side effects or don&#8217;t take it and live with symptoms&#8230;.</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I think I mentioned that since that last round of attacks I had been perhaps a bit too eager to take my allergy medicines to try to fend off the next round of attacks.  Well, after the really big slip up on a Thursday of Zyrtec the night before &#8211; 2 benedryl and then [...]]]></description>

		<title>Aftermath of an Attack Lingers</title>
		<description><![CDATA[It&#8217;s frustrating to find the words to describe what I feel lake in the days and weeks after the last attacks.  I had two attacks in one week, which is a first&#8230; that was, I think, three weeks ago&#8230;  I say, I think because it&#8217;s all running together.  I slept the better [...]]]></description>

		<title>The beast still comes to visit &#124; Meniere&#8217;s symptoms acting up</title>
		<description><![CDATA[(Updated June 5th &#8211; see the bottom of the post.)
I see that the last of my scheduled posts about my initial diagnosis have now finished posting.  That February trip I was talking about in the last post that I had my first need to get the prednisone filled was February/March 2008 and really the [...]]]></description>

		<title>Dizzies not quite gone</title>
		<description><![CDATA[We had taken a short weekend trip when I had to cash in that Prednisone prescription.  One night stay in a hotel just as a mid February get-away.  We had to cut on the air conditioner that night and the next morning as I was loading the car things started spinning.  Not [...]]]></description>
