Attempting to get up for the first time |
Friday 29th Jan - The Thursday was a similar story to attempt 1, but Friday saw some progress!! I had dulled down the medication which actually made me feel less dizzy. I sat up relatively well and was ready to try and stand up. With my zimmer frame in place, and with a fair bit of gritting my teeth I WAS UP! Even though it was only for a few seconds and it felt awful it was great to be up again. Things were finally starting to look up for me!
Standing up for the first time! |
Sunday 31st Jan - I don't know why but today I had a good feeling! I was determined to get to my next target of sitting in the chair, and walking. I was desperate for the physiotherapists to come round so I could crack on! Again I sat up and the room wasn't actually spinning.. I was sure I was onto a winner. I went to stand up and for about a minute I had relatively good control until everything became blurry..I hit back down on the bed and suddenly alarms starting going off and I had fainted. Damn it!
