Have my cardio doc appointment this afternoon. The pain in my legs has gotten pretty bad hope it's not the extensive plaque build up in my aorta artery. Was told by er docs it could be sciatica or the aorta plaque restricting blood flow to my legs. Have had sciatica problems with my left hip that was controlled with cortisone injections.

My cardio Appointment did not go well. The doc had an emergency did not get to see him saw a nurse she set up another appointment on 8/12 to see actual doc. Nurse also told me to see my primary care doc to follow up on possible sciatica didn't even discuss the plaque build up in my aorta. This kinda crap is why I hate going to doctors.

Sorry to hear it didn't go well, sometimes stuff happens. hopefully they get you in soon.
 
So for the last few months my wife had been allowed to work from home so she could recuperate from major foot/ankle surgery. Today is her first day to go bank to the office. With her home all that time, nothing happens. But today, something has gone very wrong with me. Something is making me so dizzy that the room starts spinning anytime I get up. I've nearly face planted myself more than once. It seems even my dogs know something is up. They are hanging out right by my side. Every time I ask them if they want to go outside (yes, my dogs know the phrase "Do you want to go outside?"), they don't move, when normally they hightail it to the backdoor. My wife will be home soon, so she can help me make it to the bed. I haven't had these dizzy spells in almost 20 years, and that was TBI related. I sure hope those problems aren't coming back to haunt me.
 
She should be home in less than half an hour. I was able to get up without getting dizzy to go to the back door to let the dogs back outside, but they won't go. I got myself some cold water and fruit to snack on, and I'm starting to feel more steady. This doesn't feel like something life threatening, like my pulmonary embolism was 6 months ago. This resembles exactly what I felt for a couple of years after my traumatic brain injury from the explosion I went through in 2006, as a commercial diver. I'm just more worried about falling down and injuring myself. And if I wind up on the ground, that is where I'll be staying until someone can help me back up!
 
And it's time once again
