Good News But I'm Annoyed.

Well, I've been to see the specialist. That was yesterday's fun and games. All the way to Portsmouth to get poked, prodded, told to stand here, walk there, do this, try that, wear these goggles while my head was shaken, do something else...

He says thre's nothing wrong with me. I feel like a total fraud now. Don't get me wrong: It's good news, but I'm annoyed.

Why could someone not have told me that sooner? Why could no one else have explained to me that yes, I did have the problem to start with, and it may have been something to do with the surgery, but it was temporary? Why could no one else have told me that I needed to be doing things, using my balance, sorting it out instead of giving in to it to the point where my head decided that it still had no balance, because I wasn't using it enough, because I felt I had no balance?

The specialist explained that even your balance can atrophy if you don't use it, just like muscles if you've been laid up for a while and not using them. I have excersises to do and the walking stick is banned. I shall be a fully fit, normal person again, but I'm too annoyed to be happy about this fact just yet.

I've lost my job, I've lost a year of my life and I've lost patience with the NHS. I plan to do something about it and my Dad has volunteered to help me. The campaign of action starts when I get back from my holidays, because by then I should have a couple of things I'm requesting from people to help with the argument.

I'm not letting this one go. I'm distinctly unamused.
