Spinning world, nausea, dry heaves. Unexpected after months of peace.
Can a pattern be found? Knowing well the danger of correlation versus causality.
Low potassium? Hot summer day? My new GP wants to test hearing acuity, one ear versus the other, where the age-related pattern is what they've taught him to explore, yet I find that correlation versus causality ageist and patronizing.
I wonder now if it isn't posture-related. Hours on couches, feet elevated over the back, neck pressed by gravity and position into ageing cushions over the arm. Where I'm causing these episodes, perhaps ironically, by reading for hours.
I can't say.
I don't know. Keep upright and carry on?
