thanks laurie6781.....I've already been to alot of doctors including 3 ear specialists who all said there is nothing wrong with my ear, but all 3 had different diagnosis's....one said I have a rare brain stem virus (no cure), one said I had TMJ and sent me to a dentist (no real answers with the dentist either). The 3rd wanted me to go for some $600 test that was gonna make me MORE dizzy (at the time I didn't have the $$ or the courage to be more dizzy). This all started after dental work, so I'm thinking there is some nerve damage or something. If this insurance covers most of the $600, I think I'll try that test this time around. I sure wish they COULD give me just a pill to be able to function. They gave me Meclizine which only makes me tired, does nothing for the dizziness, and tried 2 different anxiety meds which were supposed to help the dizziness & anxiety (that mainly comes from being dizzy/afraid), but both of them make me spacey and I hate that feeling.

And yes, I know....the tool thing is an open door for communication. But I tried all the other stuff several times over the past couple of years. One time I threw all his stuff, clothes, tools, and all....out in the driveway & called and told him what I did, and to pick them up. The stuff sat there for 4 days, got rained on and I finally gave in and brought them back in my breezeway.......ugh. My daughter calls it a peeing contest.....he does this, I do that. He knows I'll do this or that, so he deliberately manipulates to get me worked up. I'm super tired of this "game" so just decided to surrender that to God too.
Also, he has that DUI hearing on April 21. I'm not sure if intends to go or not (he's been running from it since 2004, and if he goes, will probably face a couple months jail time as it's a 2nd offense).....I know it shouldn't matter in my decisions, but for now I think the best thing is to just chill on the tools until I see what happens after April 21st. Just my opinion, it may not be right, but right now I'm too tired to worry about tools anyway.
