Hey ya"ll,

I was wondering if any of you experience a feeling of being disoriented or drunk. Things just don't seem to feel right. I don't have any headaches or visual disturbances. I just plain feel weird. I am not on any meds but I do take tylenol. I thought maybe I was allergic but it happens even when I am not taking any. style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/blink.gif

Please let me know if this is normal or am I going crazy? style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/hehe.gif

Thanks,

Barbie

Thank you for the response. When I stumble from feeling like that I tell my daughter "Oops mom shouldn't have been drinking". style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/bigsmile.gif I guess I just a little lupi. style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/blink.gif

Hi Barbie style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif

Yes i often feel like this too, i put it down to the brain fog that Lupus causes.
Even though Lupus has many strange symptoms we often blame it for everything !!

If this is new to you it would be worth getting it checked out .

Hi Barbie, style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/hugbetter.gif

I also get that a lot, but also with headaches, loss of balance, memory problems and some other stuff. My doctors say what all of you have heard so many times: it may due to the lupus itself or to the medication, or even to the side-effects of the antidepressants... Who knows? But the fact is that most of us here (I believe) are feeling these wierd symptoms that are so difficult to explain and that, in fact (at least in my case) keep changing all the time!!!

So, I think that what you are experiencing is quite frequent among us lupies. However, I would still check it with your doctors.

Good luck and take care.

Big hug,

Luscinda
