Did they tell you WHY they thought you had it? Depending on the cause would be the treatment. Normally its an inner ear infection, you drank to much, been on a boat/plane/roller coaster, allergy that has drainage in your ears and dehydration are the most common issues.
I would try drinking a ton of water and taking an antihistamine (just be careful not to take a strong one that will make you sleep unless you have someone to help with baby--or just make sure you DON'T have him sleeping next to you!). Try a low dose of benadryl to start.

I have had a couple very bad dizzy spells in the past. The only thing that helped was to lay still with my eyes closed until it passed. I know that is hard with a baby.. well impossible!

I went to the ER tonight because of the dizzies and also my poop is bloody. So in the next few weeks I have to have an MRI a butt and tummy camera thing and I have to get a few kidney stones removed . I hate this so much I wish Chris was home to help me! I don't know what I'm going to do being away from Landen!!! My baby needs me!

I bet those tests should help answer some questions. And remember, Landen needs you HEALTHY. You have to take care of yourself first, by doing that you are taking care of him. You really are doing the best thing for him by getting yourself checked out.

I'm sorry Angela! I hope they find what's wrong quick. It must be so hard to take care of Landon and be sick at the same time. T's and P's!

Your no use to anyone when your sick, so get healthy! Why are they waiting a few weeks to check you out? The scopes aren't really that bad, the prep for the butt scope-SUCKS though.
