I really don't know if I would be asking OT for this serious of a health issue.....you need to call your doctor the very first thing in the morning. Good luck and hope you get back to normal asap.

Could be a number of things... blood pressure, residual meds, sinus issues... call your Dr Tomorrow! If it gets worse go to the ER or call 911 ! If you start getting short of breath get to the ER asap!

Diprivan and Versed are as good as it gets. Versed is my favorite drug. Side effects are usually rare with these when used properly.

Even though I am convinced the smartest people on earth are here on TFF I would probably ask a Dr. this question.

Part of my issue is like mild vertigo but doesn't go away and not full fledge spinning.
Saw the ENT that did the surgery and he mostly acted like he was glad to see I wasn't bleeding and didn't want to touch me. He sent me back to my primary care doc and my primary care is trying to refer me to a neurologist. Problem is, everyone in B/CS is booked for months. Waiting on a few call backs and will head out of town if need be. Maybe that's a wide spread issue? Also getting a referral for an ENT that focuses on dizziness issues. Frustratingly slow process but at least I have a direction to work towards.

I like the thinking outside the box. I assume I have to convince the doctor they give me to order them though. I cant just walk up to the front desk and say I want to check in and want this test and this test.

You are responsible for the course of your own healthcare and its incumbent on you to press your case with your providers to get the treatment you need. But if you want to take the indifferent approach, so be it And where did I say just walk up to the front desk and say I want to check in

Let me say it a different way. Would this really work? How would I go about it? Would my insurance cover it as a normal hospital stay or would I get a bill for the whole stay?

That approach worked for me when I told my PCP I was dissatisfied with the treatment plan that was being proposed and my insurance paid for my hospital stay

Trying to save money won't help your situation.
Grab your symptoms by the gonads, figure out how to get in front of the right DR.
If one of your family members had these symptoms I doubt you would be this passive.
Don't worry about the mule, just load the cart
