About four weeks ago I got out of bed and felt so dizzy and when walking my knees kept buckling from under me.
This was on a Monday.
Being a man I said to Lynne I'll see how it goes and if it doesn't get any better I'll go to the doctors.
One of my first thoughts were I couldn't ride a bike like this.
By Thursday I was just the same, but I had to go to London to see my son Adam, about a two hour drive in the car.
My Daughter drove us.
Got there and it was a horrible day raining and cold.
And there's me staggering all over the place like I was drunk.
Went to see my son and on the way back to the car about a five minute walk I was worse.
Kept having to put my right leg out a bit to try and keep my balance and my knees were worse.
Lynne said I was walking like a Monkey.
Lets just say Lynne found it very amusing.
And when Lynne told my daughter Tina about it she said you should have filmed it and we could all have a good laugh, ah bless her.
Next day I did go to the doctors had a check up and he said I had a virus which should go by itself.
Sent me for a blood test, ECG, and gave me some tablets.
The tablets sorted me out.
But I had two days where I went dizzy again, once when Lynne was going to wash the bike and lube the chain and I was going to go for a ride.
And again when I was going to see my Mum on Mothers day.
Got to stop taking the tablets and see what happens then make an appointment for the doctors again to get my results.
Hope it was just a virus and not something I've got to take another lot of tablets for.
