I've been having such health problems, ear canals severely constricted, dizzy all the time. Possibility I'll be doing lead vocals and playing some harmonica only, perhaps adding a fine bass player to the band. I started out doing that many years ago. Worth a try. Better than falling down on stage!

Lemme know how that works out.
My girlfriend & songwriting partner has chronic labyrinthitis and hydrostatic syncope.
An inner ear infection destroyed her equilibrium, causing constant dizziness.
Her blood pressure sometimes drops suddenly, if she gets up too quick or bends over or moves too fast, causing blackouts.
I guess she has poor circulation to her brain or something.
Not exactly conducive to live performances.
But, THC helps relieve the symptoms.
I guess it numbs the inner ear or something.
No one knows.
Maybe it would help yours, if you don't mind smoking it.

My allergist tells me it takes six months for the ear canals to return to normal when ALL foods I'm allergic too are NOT consumed. It takes enormous will power to not eat foods you have eaten since a kid. I've been 90+% compliant, but it's tough. I have the same issues, getting up and down is an adventure. Bending my head forward is an adventure. Hopefully it'll get better. I've never done the THC stuff, probably won't as my lungs were heavily involved a few months ago. It's no fun not breathing fully, trust me. I don't want to go there again. I heard that some pesticides are causing some people to suddenly develop food allergies. Can you say "class action lawsuit?" I'll extend my hand, grease my palm PLEASE!

Bob ... I wish you the best and find it distressing that you are having such ongoing problems. Mike that goes for your Girlfriend as well. It seems that so many in the 50 and above age brackets are having more problems than ever before. My dear Mother who is 80 keeps me informed of all the gossip back home and who died etc. Many are being "milked" it seems. It is a myriad of confused possibilities and diagnosis and those that get the best results are the ones most "proactive" and aggressive doing research on their own and speaking with more than one Doctor .. at least that is what my Mother relates to me. Avoid hospitalization like the plague is what she also says.

I know I am most probably not saying anything new to you but you all have my sympathies and I understand how such things have such a profound effect upon one's life.

Ta Life Well Die Well

Good luck Bob, we're all pulling for you to get better.

Thanks for all the well wishes. Today especially you have to be proactive in your own wellness.

Bob, just so you know I have an affliction similar to yours..
Morgellons' Syndrome is what I think I had or still have that caused it.. chemtrails and good health do not mix...being over a flightway from east coast to west coast causes problems.. jets dumping their sewage out while in flight..

Thanks for all the well wishes. Today especially you have to be proactive in your own wellness.

Absolutely Bob.

In what ever you decide to do, you'll have at least one friend praying for you.

Sorry to hear this. So many things going wrong these days. Most specifically I hate to hear of you not playing bass...

You are so consistant at pushing it out there that it is inspiration to the rest of us.

So good on you and God bless.
