Hello, hello. Carey is in a place called Vertigo.
That's what my darling wife told her boss this morning. He, like all of you, picked up on the U2 song lyric immediately.
Anyway, Carey had 15 minutes with her doctor this morning. The blood tests were negative for nasty diseases, so they've ruled out things like meningitis. CAT scan results weren't ready yet, but doc recommended a neurological consult on Monday. She remains "on quarters" through Tuesday. Can't drive, and worse, can't pick up Greta. But she's in her usual great spirits. Tired a lot from the medication, which has eliminated the nausea but not the dizziness. Doc told her to increase the dosage and see if that helps the dizziness. One encouraging sign: Doc did say she thinks it's an inner ear infection that's causing the vertigo. Looking in her ear, the hairs are waving in the wrong direction, apparently.
Thanks for your kind thoughts.
