Oh dear you sound like me. A few weeks ago, i got up. Tripped on nothing.. Sprained my ankle. Hobbled around.. I've learned over the years to go down gracefully.JinnMartini » 27 Aug 2022, 11:56 am » wrote: ↑ Yesterday, while walking the dogs, I lost balance and fell flat on my face !
My whole face was totally bloodied !
And my t-shirt.
My right arm was totally bruised as well !
Couldn't get back on my feet on my own either . . . a neighbor living a couple of miles down the road happened to drive by and while his wife went looking for my dogs, he helped me back on my feet and accompanied me back home.
That's some good neighbors !
After cleaning up the mess . . . it appeared to be not such a big deal, after all !
When I got back, my wife almost went berserk seeing me like that.

The day before I left Japan I also lost balance and fell flat on my face, but that time I had a bag of garbage to protect me, which I was bringing to the collecting point.

In Japan there are extremely strict rules about garbage !
Only twice a week and only from 8 am to 10 am and you are required to separate everything !
You're required to remove the labels of the plastic bottles of, for instance, the mineral water you drink.
Also, you're required to rinse all the cans of, for example, tuna, tomatoes . . . and everything you consume !
Also in the place where you deposit your garbage there is a supervisor making sure you follow the rules .

Jinn ...the mono-racial culture of Japan is a constant reminder that DIVERSITY IS NOT OUR STRENGTH....****** WILL ALWAYS BE "THE WHITE MANS BURDEN"

remember he just went through having the new variation of covid a month or so ago, could be still messing around with his inner ear where balancing is maintained.
None of that !omh » 27 Aug 2022, 12:03 pm » wrote: ↑ You lost your mind and your brain wasn't trained to think for itself. did you trip on your shoe laces? Your dogs playing with each other come up from behind and whack at your knees knocking you down.
I ask that because the dogs have done that to me a couple of times. Been there done that.
say again? loose tile while walking the dogs beyond your home. My brain just hasn't ever seen tiled sidewalks. Now a concrete or slate where a tree root pushed it up creating a lip to trip on I can imagine. or low spot rain and weather shifted the ground underneath, etc.

What "hard stuff" ?
I meant booze!!
estimating is a lie? I simple put forth a possibility that is a common cause of many things that bring about inner ear problems of balance with older persons such as ourselves. I'm 70 I think I remember you saying you are within that age range.Jinn Martini » 27 Aug 2022, 6:00 pm » wrote: ↑ Why do you need to lie, bastard ?
I've never been through any kind of Covid variation at all !
In fact I think Covid 2018 - 2019 - 2020 - 2021 - 2022 - 2023 - 2024 - 2025 - etc. etc. etc. is nothing but a hoax !
Designed to enslave us !
