Hi everyone, just wanted to check in. After moving and starting to work in the same week--I can thank God that I am still kicking! The 24/7motion feelings went beserk and then settled back down and now have gone crazy again. Hope everyone is feeling better. Trying to sit still and be on the computer for eight hours while I feel like I am bouncing and rocking off the chair has been a weird experience... If anyone has any advice on how to help this,i would greatly appreciate it. Thanks, Belle

Hi Belle...all I can say is you do so blimin well to work...I admire you greatly...I'd get up and walk around every 10mins...I went to the pub last night as have had a few days of feeling better (about time) and I found the more I sat the worse the motion would get - so getting up and briefly walking around eases it for me. Have a go xxx

Yes I agree with Emsy--sitting really still is the worse for me. Standing up and moving around helps a lot, also just moving in your chair helps as well. Stay away from caffeine if possible and high sodium foods too. Keep working!

Hi em and jcrock, thanks for replying. I do move around in my chair quite a bit. What I eat or drink doesn't seem to affect me one way or another. The 11th of this month was my 1 year mark with this mess. I can only praise the Lord that I am doing what I am. Thanks Em, I know your going to beat this crap, as i pray for you nightly. Good luck to all. Prayers,belle

Belle,
I can't believe you sit in front of a computer for 8 hours! I find something about the screen that causes everything around it to spin a bit. I really admire your strength to get out there and do it. I'm trying to resume life myself, and doing an ok job at it. Glad to hear you are giving it a go. Have you heard from Vicki? I think she's been off the boards a bit. I have come and gone lately, just very busy. God bless you, you're in my prayers.

Hi Julianne, Em, thanks Julianne, I DO need all the prayers I can get. I firmly believe that God is able to bring us out of this. I haven't been on a lot recently but I haven't heard from Vicki in a while. I do pray she is at 100% and is making up for lost time! Thank you Em, as you know I do believe in what I am saying. Prayers, Belle
