WHY AM I SO DIZZY?! | SURGERY COMPLICATIONS?| Somers In Alaska

[@evelynhayward2890]

Oh my gosh I hope she feels better soon. That note Audrey wrote her Nana was precious. What a thoughtful thing to do. Enjoy your weather, it was 99 here today. We are expecting rain so maybe it will cool off a little bit.

[@sooziesonhiem1833]

I suffer from BPPV , benign paroxysmal positional vertigo . When my sinuses are clogged from allergies I am at my greatest risk for an episode. The crystals or stones in the inner ear move out of alignment and dizziness occurs . There are exercises you can do to facilitate the realignment of the otoliths . I never know when they will occur, sometimes I have it w/ vomiting. . Hope all goes well . Get better soon

[@jenfillyaw]

I had a head injury that created this condition in me. Once you go to a physical therapist they will teach you how to float those crystals back to the correct position. It is amazing, really...

[@gageschulz7567]

I just had the Epley maneuver done for benign positioning vertigo. I had horrible vertigo and still feel strange when my sinuses bother me.

[@quiltluvr1660]

An emergency room Dr. treated me years ago for those crystals or stones. I was sitting on the exam table and had to lie back quickly and be still for a minute. He also had me lie on one side and roll quickly to the other side and lie still for a minute. Then repeat on opposite side. I sure didn’t want to move quickly when I was already dizzy but it did the trick. You can google info on it. Some people don’t believe in it but it sure helped me. It was during allergy season but I’ve never had another problem.

[@debbaxter6615]

This comment is for the kids; you guys are fabulous helpers and at being grateful to your grandmother and family I'm a grandmother too so I personally know how that feels in the heart ❤️. 🤗

[@starlaware5325]

My babies are about to camp out, what fun enjoy babies. Those babies are very responsible they got this. I hope you feel better mama bear, love you lots. Papa bear is a great multitasker checking on the girls and taking care of you. For dizziness recline back on pillows and put pillows under her feet laying like that helps with the balance of your body, when you lean over or lay fetal in the bed your not letting enough oxygen to you so trying laying back on pillows under your head and feet, once again feel better mama bear love you guys with all my heart.

I used more Peat than the normal peat silty loam mix most sell for lawns in the FNSB area. We already had plenty of silty loam. I then got as much horse manure as I could acquire and piled it up to compost for later. Needed to kill off the seeds from hay, clover and other feed seeds. Every year I would add a thin layer of the composted horse manure, adding more new horse manure to the pile in the late summer. We had a great green lawn, the iron in the well water is great for lawns.

[@wendi2819]

You have such a wonderful support system! Your children learning to survive in Alaska is very, very very important! They will always need wood! They'll always need to be aware of the raw wilderness and animals sharing Alaska with them. I just love your family.🌷💕🌷💕🌻🌻🌻🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

[@katpowell961]

Loved this vlog, so sweet of Audry to bless her Nana as she did.. Jessica, I hope that you are feeling better, you have a wonderful sis-in-love that would come over and massage your neck.. a little dirt never hurt anyone!!! LOL!! Bert, I need that pizza recipe, you did an amazing job with the build!! Evelyn, you are a professional photo bomber!!! Your moves are impeccable!! Garrett, you are growing so fast, I look at the vlogs that I have not seen before and then today, you looked so much taller!!! You and family are truly a blessing for me. I am not able to see my grandbabies, so I have kind of adopted the Somers!! Total Girl Power for Audrey and Evelyn for sleeping out in the Little House, I have been shopping for one myself, and totally impressed by your courage !!

[@virtutemagna]

Audrey has such a pure soul. I hope you feel better soon, Jessica.

[@carenburmeister5002]

That is the best closing ever!!! It’s so good, I’d use it in every video. Praying that you feel better soon, Jessica.

[@lenap8777]

Your kids are so stinkin sweet. Feel better Jess. Thanx for sharing! Cheers

[@johnsymons76]

Praying for a quick recovery dear Super Mom! Audrey is such a thoughtful and caring child. It's so nice to see that in someone her age. God Bless all of you. ♥️🙏

[@dgmills5351]

I hope You are feeling better Jessica! I am sad you are on the struggle bus again! Take it easy and get your rest. I love getting to share a few moments of your lives each day. 😇💖🙏💐😷

[@valerieknauber2149]

Hey there happy people's!! Hey Bert, Jessica, Audry, Evelyn, and Garrett. Oh wow, that's amazing. 11 at night and still light outside. I'd never be able to sleep, my body would be all screwed up. Audry and Evelyn are brave girls sleeping out there by theirselves. Great job girls!! Sorry to hear your not feeling well Jessica, I'm be sure to pray for you and sending you big hugs!! I always love seeing the kids pitch in and help out around the house and property. So sweet of you guys to always take care of Jessica when she's not feeling well. You guys have raised the most beautiful, respectful, and loving children ever. So sweet Audry to pick your nana some flowers. So sweet!! She's such an old soul. Mature beyond her years. She made Nana's day. Well hey there Jessica number 2, hope your doing well. So sweet to come and try and help Jessica. It's always a hoot with you two together. Hope you are all well. Jessica get some rest and get well soon.

[@heatherlforrester]

I feel ya, Jessica. I have vertigo all the time, too, and I actually fall way more often than I’d like. My doctors at Stanford say that my inner ear gets mixed signals from my nerves (I have a nerve pain disorder called CRPS), and that causes the inner ear to go haywire. The timing of your issue would indicate it’s a result of your surgery, and hopefully it will rectify itself when all of those nerves are fully rebuilt and healed. I get regular massages every 3 weeks, and my therapist works extensively on my neck - this has helped the most, although acupuncture done well can also help. Feel better! Loved today’s vlog - fun adventures in the trailer and working in the yard. I adore your sweet family. God bless.

[@jot4336]

I have dizziness when I'm dehydrated and sinus problems when the weather is bad. I hope Jessica feels better quickly. I remember sleeping in the camper in the yard a few times when I was a kid when family would visit here in Southwest Michigan, not very rural but it is when your family's from Chicagoland 😎🤠

[@verashular3116]

Since you have been doing a keto diet look at the side effects of a keto diet. It can cause dizziness among other things. I have had vertigo too. I was nauseated and it felt like the room was spinning. It was due to a virus. Got medicine and took Dramamine too. Get an ENT evaluation. Fluid buildup in the eardrum could cause it too. Keep us posted. Look up Cawthorne exercises and/or Eppley maneuver.

[@KarenWatts101]

Keto flu?

[@Ohiotruckerkat]

I am sure they are aware of “keto flu” and know to take electrolites. Or at least I hope they know. They seem to be pretty informed. Anyway hope Jess feels better soon.

[@paularunyan1074]

Keto flu happens the first few days. I'd be more worried about mineral loss and hormone crashes.

[@KarenWatts101]

Just adding what I thought it could have been not here to start a public debate so anyway ladies and gentlemen take care and have a great!

[@catherineb5066]

The epley manuver is amazing I found it by going to a dizzy vertigo clinic in Kissimmee florida...😻💝

[@cindypeters9610]

Jessica hope you are feeling better. I have struggled with vertigo for the better part of 33 years. The only thing that really helps me is taking one Dramamine when the vertigo is at its worst. Sounds like yours is sinus wish you luck with some possible decongestants. Take care and rest. So enjoy your videos and your beautiful family thank you for sharing.

[@soxluv1717]

Hope you feel better Jessica. Saw in Jessica vlog she left a goodie basket for you too. You may not be feeling well but whenever you and Jessica are together it's always a fun time. Hope you feel better

[@janeyclark6554]

Feel better Jessica!! Camping in our camper in yard is one of my favorite memories when I was growing up! We just started letting our kids do it too :)

[@lily_the_tzuadventures5359]

You're amazing parents, we did the same thing with our children who now are 33 and 26, if they wanted something they went to work worm dad to the church to help clean, so now they work with a good attitude, our daughter was a dental assistant and now is a mother of a twerp and a half year old little girl who helps with laundry, feeds her dog, and helps inn the kitchen! Do it with a grateful heart!

[@teresabeamon9650]

I was diagnosed with vertigo along time ago now. But they gave me exercises to do. Lay on one side & count to 30. If you still feel dizzy. Count to 30 again. Then turn over to the other side & do the same. You’re to do this 10 times on both sides until the dizziness goes away. 3 times a day. It helped me & I have no more dizziness. Thank God

[@ricofranz8119]

Your family is there for you jess, it's so great

[@eileensimpson3725]

My son found your channel about fall time last year and he shared with me. So with that said I'm just now watching this video and wanted to say thanks so much for sharing your life with all of us. I have celiac disease along with hypothyroidism. I know before I was DX in 2003 with celiac disease I was very dizzy all the time. I think that low iron can cause dizziness as well as inner ear problems. Love you guys.

[@penbars224]

Hey Jess! I work in a physical therapy office and see patients with similar symptoms. Therapist uses the Epley method to get crystals back in the right spot. Generally one treatment does it. Sometimes two. Patients are thrilled with the results they get. It is online if you want to check it out. Take care.

[@joannegiordano9409]

Good for you dad for teaching your children a good work ethic! It is important and totally lacking in the younger generation. I just love how kind and thoughtful your children are. How sweet was Audrey with her nana! Love her. I hope jess feels better.

[@bloomisty11]

Try knocking/taping with 2 knuckles (I use the part in between the first and second knuckle on my pointer and middle finger). I knock/tap on my forehead, brow-ridge, temple area, down the sides of my face, jaw, the upper cheek area, around to the front sinus beside the nose. Then I massage behind the ear and down the neck following the jaw line to open up the lymph passages. This works for me every single time. It’s also worked for everyone I’ve told about it. I hope you feel better soon!

[@marilynreichenbach9220]

I so enjoy your channel, your children have such beautiful kind souls. Feel better Jessica

[@jimmoore7725]

Jessica I hope you feel better soon. Can’t wait to see what surprises are coming.

[@mtal9177]

Jessica, I was also suffering from dizziness for some years. Complained to my doctor constantly. I needed hearing aids and the radiologist subject a balance test. She said I had BPPV. Inner ear crystals were out of place. She performed a non invasive head turning maneuver I her office. Haven't had another episode since. She said incubation during surgery is one of the causes.

[@65leapfrog]

Praying for Jessica to feel better! Love your family!

[@marietajalle391]

Hope and pray that you get better soon. Loved how your kids are a big help around the house. Glad to see the girls enjoyed the night in the camper. God bless you and your family. Buenas from Guam 🇬🇺 USA.

[@Shells166]

Your kids are so sweet 😍 I hope your dizziness gets better!! I've been dealing with dizziness since Salem was born and it's awful! My midwife shared a KZbin video with me on a maneuver for the inner ear. It didn't change immediately but the next day it was way better. Also tea tree oil behind and in front of my ear and along my sinuses has helped a lot. I will fb pm you the video 😊

[@larrymiller6]

Get to feeling well, I remember my first camp out in the yard. Sixty degrees is cold to me but I live in Phoenix.

[@jillthomas4926]

Praying that you feel better soon Jessica!

[@sarahlangham635]

Oh I feel so bad for your dizziness , I have vertigo really bad, I have found that essential oils have helped and doing the epley maneuver has been the best thing ever!!

[@bonnie3994]

Vera,I had heard the same thing about that keto,, effect people different,,my doctor told me not to do it, due to side effect. But some do well.Jess hope you feel better real soon💞👍Bert you are 100% right they learn plus have fun👍Audrey that was so sweet what you did for your mommy @ nanna💞

[@atypicalmom]

I'm so sorry you haven't been feeling well Jessica, what a horrible feeling for a mommy to have. I sympathize with you as a mommy to four kids myself. I have been praying for you today. xoxo

[@Peteypuma1]

Thank you so much for helping the kids learn good work ethics!!!! I work for Walmart and we have a very good turn over for young people. It seems more and more that a lot of the young people have little to no work ethic, let alone GOOD work ethic, and it seems to be getting worse and worse. So I definitely appreciate and applaud that. Feel better Jessica. My thoughts and prayers are with you. God Bless!!!!

[@lindagentile2380]

What a BEAUTIFUL FAMILY... GBY Nanna ❤🤗 CONTINUED PRAYERS.... For a FULL & SPEEDY RECOVERY.... GBY ALL ❤💙💖💖💙🤗

[@Danilucaa]

Just watching now but had seen on insta that you were still dizzy. Sooo sorry! I have vestibular migraines and dizziness/lightheaded during different times of my cycle and it's horrible! You feel helpless and hate bringing attention to it or getting help. I hope everything is ok and you feel better soon!

[@joannegipson2922]

I remember visiting my brother lived up in Fairbanks Alaska , we were playing horseshoes @ Midnight and it looked like it was noon time, I couldn't believe it, and watched moose walking by. One of my best vacations I have ever taken. 💕

[@jrudewick]

Jessica... so sorry that you are feeling yucky. Please take care of yourself. Prayers coming your way!!!

[@cyndee6437]

I will keep you in my prayers. May you feel much better Jessica. When I am having sinus issues I use a nasal spray and then a hot shower to help get the drainage started. Sending love and prayers. God Bless.

[@kscheuerman5378]

Jessica, I sure hope you feel better! Your kids are so awesome. I think it just might be because of those awesome parents!!!!Take care & God Bless.

I hope you feel better soon, Jess. What a fun sleepover for the girls.

[@lezettegaxiola3650]

I'm in love with those kiddos...so smart...sweet...and educated 🙏

[@micheleelliott8256]

I suffer with issues of ear pain and dizzy spells. It is an awful feeling! It seems weather plays a big part in my ear pain/dizziness so my doctor put me on a daily Zyrtec a couple of years ago. That has helped me a lot! I can now go months at a time with no issues at all. When those dizzy spells hit they truly stop you in your tracks. All you can do is sit super still and wait for everything around you to line back up and stop spinning. I pray you find relief soon!

Shame man Jess, I hope you feel better soon. Audrey is the sweetest considerate young lady. Greetings from South Africa

[@lsnider59]

Go to an ENT and have them check for crystals in the ear regarding positional vertigo- you can have a PT show you how to make them move. Also, with Dr. permission use car sick pills helps. I get this during allergy season and have my chiropractor do an adjustment on my sinus and it helps!

Praying that you feel better soon. The kids are so responsible for their age. How do you get them to get along so well?

[@carrie3885]

There are some great videos online to help treat vertigo. Body positions you go through to move the congestion. Also when it gets bad for me I have to take Sudafed. The real stuff. Small dose and be careful of caffeine with it but it really helps dry it up. Lastly, in the first couple hours you are up try to not spend time looking down. Crazy I know but it really really helps to let your head drain correctly after getting up. Hold screens up to your eye level for those first few hours. Hang tough beautiful you are not alone in that struggle!

[@juliehanton6328]

I hope you feel better soon Jess, much love to you all xx

[@lyndarebustillo9114]

I hope you feel better soon, Jess. 🙏🏻 It could be an ear infection which will cause dizziness or a severe sinus infection.

[@ykk239]

I have BPPV and vertigo at times. The allergy season wreaks havoc on my ears. I take Meclizine to help with symptoms. In addition, if you can do the Epley or somersault maneuver, it helps.

Sending prayers that you feel better soon Jess! My Mom has vertigo occasionally which obviously causes horrible dizziness! She does these specific exercises and takes Dramamine or something along those lines to get some relief. Maybe google vertigo to see if you can find the exercises! I’m not sure what they are called.I’m sorry! Just Love watching your family but it’s definitely not the same without you! I’m sure your family feels the same! As always, Be Blessed!❤️

I hope you get well soon! Sending healing thoughts and prayers

[@dmariegreene]

Jessica, I have vertigo and that sounds like you might have a touch of vertigo from the sinus pressure. I use the Equate brand of motion sickness medicine and it knocks it right out. It also takes away the nausea associated with the dizziness. Walmart carries this in their pharmacy section near the Dramamine. Feel better soon. Love your vlogs. Diane, Indianapolis, Indiana

[@juliannarusso5547]
