So this weekend I started feeling light-headed and dizzy. Worried about my symptoms, I, of course, turned to the Internet for answers.
While my self-diagnosis isn’t something serious like mesothelioma, it is something that could be a range of issues. The most simple is that I’m dehydrated or need to clean my ears. The worse case scenario can be more severe. That’s the bad thing about using the Internet to diagnosis symptoms is that you will run across several problems that you hadn’t even dreamed might be causing your ailments. So, we will try the easy route first.
It has been really hot and I know I don’t drink enough water. So today I will try to get in my 64 ounces. I’ll also clean my ears and then go from there.
Sometimes the Internet is good for getting answers and sometimes it can be quite scary to read some search results. It’s best to take it at face value and consult a doctor if symptoms persist, which is what I will do if I continue to feel this way next week.

I do this all the time, looking up symptoms online - especially pregnancy symptoms, since we’re trying. Random fact from someone you don’t know! Bet that’s nice
