About this blog

Chronic. Invisible. Debilitating. (and hard to diagnose.)


These 3 words describe Soeun’s physical discomfort when he is in Australia.



The actual blog part of this blog (Scrapbook) is partly things I wrote in June 2016 during Migraine Awareness month reflecting back on 2011-12, trying to understand things, as well as links to relevant articles I'm reading these days. And bits and pieces of other things about life with the Dizzy Monster.


About this blog

Chronic.  Invisible.  Debilitating.  (and hard to diagnose.)

Three words to describe Soeun’s physical discomfort when he is in Australia.

In 2011 he started having symptoms of a vestibular disorder. We began searching for a diagnosis and treatment, trying to pinpoint possible triggers. 

 Five years later we still don’t really know much except that his symptoms begin after being in Aus for a month.  He still sometimes gets sick here but it’s not 24/7 debilitation that it is in Aus.

Friends often ask us how his health is going. Its hard to answer sometimes as its confusing and sometimes it feels too stressful to talk about. So  for those friends who want to know more maybe this blog can help. The "pages" (accessed by these links or the tabs across the top) are probably the most useful.
