Back in the ER, had another fall

I got up this morning at 9AM, I felt unsteady on my feet and when I tried to walk I had to brace myself to keep from falling. At 12:30PM I decided to call 911 because I wasn’t feeling any better. They decided to do a CAT scan and I fell trying to get back in the wheelchair. It’s now 4PM and I just gave a urine sample and I used a walker to get from my bed to the bathroom. I’m feeling better but I still don’t know why this is happening to me.

That's scary! I hope all is OK!

Good on you for not hesitating to head to the hospital when you felt like something wasn't right!

I’m home now but still no wiser on why I keep falling. Both my PCP and the ER seem to have no answers. I’ve been walking around and having no falls since but the next time I see my PCP I’m going ask to see a specialist.
