Exercise Amid Illness

So I’ve got something medically wrong that crops up from time to time, specifically, vertigo (dizziness for those who don’t know and don’t want to look it up).

This week it is bad and let’s add a migraine-quality headache that has contributed to my downtime. I was getting back into my program, but this week has brought a halt to my efforts. I cannot exercise; the slightest turn of my head causes my world to spin and brings waves of nausea.

Which brings up another issue – foods that are gentle on the stomach for the anti-nausea, migraine, and dizziness medications that I am taking, some of which must be taken with food.

What sorts of food are gentle on the stomach? Most carb-related items. Guess what is limited on my program. Yeah. *sigh*

So do I just maintain until this episode goes away? What if it doesn’t? What “Plan B” can I put into place to continue my efforts?

How can someone get or be healthy amid illness?

I’m struggling with choices and decisions this morning, all while trying to maintain an upright position. I feel like a Weeble (remember those?).
