Yesterday was awful. The psoriasis is lessening every day but because of the ear infection the dizzyness hit its worst - I couldn't even stand up at one point and was crawling around the house on my hands and knees. Not pleasant and humiliating. Later when I was able to walk I was clutching the walls for support. And no, before you ask - nothing to do with alcohol!

And to make matters worse, Lucius (who decided to come back after a day) has stopped eating and yesterday I was completely unable to take him to the vet. Do you know how bad a human I felt, lying in bed watching him just lying there, not eating or drinking all day?  I managed to get him to drink a couple of teaspoons of water out of my palm by the end of the day, but he hasn't got up this morning at all.  Cats always pick the worse time to be ill, as today is the only day that the vet insists on appointments (normally you can just turn up) so they can't see me until 4pm. That's good for me, as the dizzyness is still present and it will take an hour or so for me to get my arse into gear and get washed and dressed, but not so good for him. I hope I can get some more water into him. Stupid cat!! Why couldn't he be ill in his other family's house?

Maybe Lucius came back because he was already feeling a bit off-colour and knew you would do something about it and help him, and that his 'other family' wouldn't?

Ear infections aren't fun. I've only had (I think) one, and it was horrible - felt as though things were sloshing around inside and making me wobble with them. Take great care on the way to the vet!

What a stupid design flaw, putting the balance into the EAR!!!! You;d think that it would be in something like the stomach where it was less likely to have problems.

Thanks hun - i must go and try and get him to drink something - and I will drive verrrrrry slowly....

Obviously designed by the same moron who thought it would be a good idea to put nerves into teeth...
