Your whole deal is to take better care of yourselves, and that's what you're doing. Keep on keeping on!
My daughter complained about dizziness alot, turned out she had EBV and tonsillectomy has seemed to fix it for her. MRIs, CTs, 5 different specialists. It took two years to come to that conclusion. She had a diagnosis of lupus, then a blood disorder, then swollen optic nerve, then for a minute they thought it was MS, then they decided it was sleep apnea. Something different every appointment. But really her tonsils were so big, they were putting pressure on her ear canal and causing sleep apnea. Long story short ....that was a stressful two years! All for tonsils. 😅 Glad that's done. Our medical system is so broken. 🤦🏼
On another note, can't wait to see the next video!! And the new plan!
....stop the vaccination
Our 8yr old son is battling brain cancer for a 2nd time so I truly understand the medical tests and anxiety with all the tests and MRI's ❤I'm glad yours came back good ,as your alls you tube channel is his favorite ❤
Sarah can you email me? Aust@thisishomesteady.com I wanna send your son something
Praying for your son!!! Just hold your faith, God is about to do some supernatural miracles and NOTHING is impossible with God!!! God speaks a lot of cancer…he is going to destroy it and it wont even be a memory. I know this sounds crazy and impossible but NOTHING is impossible with God!! Just Trust Him….He Will Not Fail You!! Stand Strong In Your Faith!!! Take Care, God Bless💕
Praying for your baby boy. Hugs
Praying for your boy. Watch some Barbara O’Neil, it can help and also something else you could try xoxo
Praying for your son and family! 🙏🏼
Well personal health and family comes first. Glad you are on the mend and better things to come. Keep at it Austin!
My mom died of brain cancer and had so many plans for when she retired, but she never made it that far. And that is exactly the reason we started homesteading because I didn't want to wait and miss my chance.
Sorry about your mom! But way to go on starting your own homestead dreams!
It’s hard keeping up with all the projects with health issues to contend with as well.
praying for you Aust
Hang in there you guys!!! Can’t wait to see what you come up with 🙏
Love that y'all adjust to what's going on. Life is so messy and it's great to slow down & adapt. We've been offgrid for almost 11 yrs and this year we've decided to change our entire farm and what sustainable living means to us now.
Men make plans and God laughs! It will happen and it will be great, it will just take more time than you thought!
God looking at our foolish plans: "Why did I create something so stupid?"
Amen!!! Thats why his word says this…Jeremiah 29:11 11 For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.
Just trust his timing, its always perfect. Everything good comes from God…and God only!!! 😊 It will come and it will be more than you desired. The “Waiting Season” is always the hardest…Trust me I know I had planned on buying my farm two years ago and things flipped on is, so I just know God has a plan and his plan and timing and always perfect so I just have to trust him because I know when he says No its always for a reason and its only because what you chose isn’t good enough and he has something better for you!!! Just Trust Him!!!

Ain't that the truth!!
@@floraledet6973 your god left you behind
Waiting is so hard but it’ll happen. We’ve been through it! Bought land in the beginning of 2020 and right before we broke ground on our dreams, Covid happened. Long story short , we will finally be out on our land and in our home in July . We’ve learned a lot along the way and will treasure it so much more now .
So glad you’re ok!
Wow congrats on making it there this summer Rachel!
I HAD THE SAME THING. It turned out to be a vitamin deficiency. Folic acid and vitamin d. So I have to take these every fall winter now.
Glad to hear the medical issue is nothing too concerning
Thank you for always putting out great content. Glad you are okay.
Thank you for inspiring us to create our own channel! We are excited to start this journey! ❤
I want to start this for myself and my family. Can't get my husband on board. He says "we can't just jump". But I've realized a lot the last few years. Lost both my parents, my dad three years ago. Just lost my mom to cancer back in February. They both passed in their 60s. Life is too short. I want to live while I'm still here for as long as God has planned for me. He still doesn't quite get it 😔
Had dizziness also, mine came and went. It was due to heartburn at night when i went to bed it would end up reaching my ear canal and that would cause dizziness oddly enough. Then i started using a edge pillow and eating way before bed and it helped. God bless you and your family.
Ask for a DVD of the scan and make your own card/slide show. I have MS and a stack of DVD over the years.
Had a specialized CT scan looking for infection in the bones around my ear. They found that I have a whole in the bone surrounding part of my semicircular canals. Yes I have a hole in my head 😂. But now that we know this I get to see a neurosurgeon and determine a next step. I’m hoping not surgery.
The secret of getting an MRI is to keep your eyes closed as soon as you go on the table and don't open them until they pull you out. There is less powerful permanent magnet MRI that uses two vertical plates and has a lot of space compared to the donut style of MRI.
That’s what I did 😅
Ah yes, the open MRI. The hamburger buns are good for claustrophobic patients but the image quality suffers unfortunately.
Glad youre feeling better, and thanks for the update! Following closely as ill be building my farm starting a year from now, so will have to go through a lot of the same steps.
I’m so happy to hear you’re ok. Looking forward to the next video!
Glad you a doing better. Thank you for sharing your story.
I'm so glad you are feeling better, just do what you have to,to take care of yourself,
I look forward to the character you embrace after the Luigi phase.
Next up… Donkey Kong
Frustrating process for you all, but glad it had a happy ending.
You can usually request a digital copy of your MRI... been through it a few times.
Be good to yourselves. If you're down for the count it gets super hard. I've been dealing with a torn rotator cuff since 2014. Fun times.
So glad you got the peace of mind and went to get checked out. You never know it’s good to get out of your own head.
I had assumed that you were so busy with the building project that you didn't have time to make videos. I'm glad your feeling better.
So grateful I live in a free country where I don't need an insurance company bureaucrat's permission to get the health care I need. I talk to my doctor, he refers me to the tests and specialists I need, and the government pays up because that's what a government is there for.
Maybe have a look to Sally K Norton. So much of our so called healthy food is making us sick. Glad I found her and follow a low oxalate diet now. The feeling well is just worth it. I switched too to animal fat. No seed oil. 71 and sorry to learn about it late in my life but no turning back.
As someone that gets tested a lot over the years, every time they found something else, I just ain't going for anymore major ones, my thyroid is about it as it's 100% dead. I have bad genes, so I am happy not to have found this life style in my early 20s. I am female and did a lot of hard labor work, installed modular office systems for 11years, nursery work in a polly house, I would have loved this. Around 42 I started with lumbar issues and it didn't help I did home care, lifting patients. I also spent years gardening after work. By the time I went for a CT scan, no MRIs for me, too much metal in the head, I showed three areas of spinal stenosis, four herniated disc, arthritis nodes up and down my spine. Because I have short pedicles it was always going to happen. After a laminectomy in two areas, L4 and L5 slipped. I never expected to be disabled in my older years. I worked hard all my life to not be able to do anything now. People, go for your dream now as a healthy older time is not guaranteed. You may want to be followed through with everything as the years go by, my sister's ex husband was told he had vertigo, only to pass from Ms years later and he was in bad shape when they found out. I pray all works out for you guys!
Glade you are all good now. 😂 that was a good cliffhanger 😁
😁 I love a good Cliff hanger!
prayers to you all!
So, what was the cause? Thankful you are ok!!!❤
Love your channel! I’m new to all this but have wanted a small hobby farm for years. You have given me the inspiration to plan it and get started in my 40s! Kinda late to the party with all you young homesteaders making me look like an old guy, but better late to the party than miss it, right?
You guys will get there❤❤❤❤❤
We close on our new place today! We are moving at what seems like a snails pace. I’ve been worried about you guys I’m happy for the update and I’m so glad you’re alright. I did finally make the leap to get sheep. I currently have 3 bottle babies and I pick up my last lamb today my husband has cut me off from a more lambs for a little bit so now I need to go back through all your sheep care videos and make sure I know what I’m doing 🤔
Yay! Congrats on the sheep! We are enjoying ours!
I wish you all the best! I know what dizzyness is, I struggle with that from time to time. Trying to build a self-sufficient life on my own and it is hard. I had a herniated disc which still hurts, due to nervedamage, bad back and joints and more. But still living the dream. Much smaller than you guys, but still. Small Adobe house that seems to be falling apart, vegetable garden that keeps overgrowing by weeds, lost some chickens because of old age and nareks disease but now I still have 15 laying chickens, two roosters and... 13 chicks with more to come. I am a 56 yo Dutch woman who moved to Hungary to get the life I want and it is hard work. I sell my chicken eggs and so I have about $1,80 to spend at the shop, daily. My savings are gone and I worry about the electricity bill that can come every day now. But hey, I am happy like never before! Good health to you and hope the dizzyness will fade. X
Life happens, just keep moving, once you stop that's when life stops.
You have my sympathies... I've only got four kids, but no major problems... yet.
I can’t believe that you’re building your house on leased land. I’ve never heard of such a thing ❤️
Didn’t he say once that it’s family land?
Go steady home steady!
So they said nothing was wrong? What was the issue those 4 months? Mental health is extremely important be sure to take care of your mind and spirit. It has great affect on the body. Feel better I'm glad you're okay!
God Bless
Awesome
Oh thank goodness
Good that it turned out not to be a major health problem! Yeah, you can get these surprises that knock you off schedule for awhile. I got banged up in a car crash and haven't been able to do much for a month. But I'm very lucky. I'm recovering from it just fine, and starting to get back to work on my projects. I know what you mean by lacking the brain power to do even the simple stuff. I didn't hurt my head, bu my brain has turned to mush while I was feeling bad! But once you get over it, you just get back to work and keep going. Because that's what we do. 🤠
Sorry you had an accident! But glad to hear you are ok Coyotech!
@@Homesteadyshow Doing fine - but just to agree with you that we do get those surprise health things, even when we try to take care of ourselves and be sensible! Just have to work around them, if possible, like you guys are doing.
Ha, its flying Mario! Red and Black. Also, Med world is a mess. Stay healthy.
3 years ago I started getting very dizzy and blacking out. Couldn't move or I would blackout. After every test possible they did an EEG. Halfway through the test they stopped and said we got what we end. They told me the neurologist would call with results in 7-10 days. Next morning got the call wanting to see me the next day. So results were Focal Seizures.
Phew!! Glad you’re ok! But don’t leave that cliff hanger hanging!!
So thankful it was clear! I bet stress played a HUGE part in it....and then you worry about the symptoms and the what-ifs...and symptoms get worse. The brain is GREAT at letting you know something is wrong...even when there's not anything wrong. 😂 the nervous system just gets all jacked up and overly-sensitive. Lived this first hand. Look at Mind Body Syndrome, or Neuropathway Pain.
Yes!!! I’m re-reading Dr Sarno book right now (healed my back pain 15 years ago!)
@@Homesteadyshow Yep. Me too! Dr. Howard Shubiner is another great one... and Alan Gordon. Fascinating stuff...
Also Dr Yonit Arthur. #The steady coach.
Having had that vertigo test, I agree that it's awful. The only that has ever actually worked on my vertigo/dizziness is acupuncture. No idea why, but three sessions, and it turns right off for years. My internist at the time told me to try it, and she was right.
MRIs aren't fun, no, but they're not awful. Neurological stuff, which I deal with, is not fun at all. Hang in there, and take time to rest.
I am disabled. I am messed up from the neck down. My neck is fused, knee replaced x5, shoulders rebuilt x2, I am having my 17th operation in less than 2 weeks, my 10th since 2017, with a total of 4-7 that will need to be done to keep me going for now. It is from the Army. I have chronic pain in all my joints that is very bad 24/7/365. The thing is to make yourself stay positive. Find that thing that makes you happy and focus on it. For me it is family, my small farm, and woodworking. I make myself get outside and get moving no matter how I feel first thing to get myself out of the house, and take breaks as I have to. Being inside locked in gets my depression going, then comes the suicidal thinking and wanting to just shut the pain off, so I have to keep all of this at bay.
KC, so sorry you have to suffer with this pain. When did you serve?
Walking example of why to NOT enlist.
Used up & tossed aside.
I’ve heard of quite a few people having side affects from C**id like this. I have rapid heart beat from it. Currently wearing a heart monitor. If you don’t get better and they don’t find anything, maybe do some research on it.
Can’t thank you guys enough for the video. I understand broken bodies! I JUST got a new diagnosis, not instead of but on to of, my multiple already issues 🤦🏻♀️. As cliché as it is “Oxygen Mask on you guys first” is super freaking important. Then comes the possibility of positivity. So mine is simple #thinksmalllivebig
Kick the worlds ass one millimetre at a time. You guys rock 😎
Is there anyway to watch your series in order as they happen? Over the last 2 weeks I've been glued to you site and I think I've seen about 75% I'm 72 and I'm confused and this doesn't help. I love all the things I have watched. I feel like I'm there with you.
PLEASE READ THIS!!!! I've been dealing with dizziness EVERYDAY for almost 4 years, I've had so many test, seen numerous doctors and no one had a clue to what was wrong with me. My life literally stopped in it's tracks. I would have severe vertigo for weeks on end and I even to this day can only sleep on my back propped up on 3-4 pillows. Back in last December I finally discovered what the problem was: Vitamin D deficiency!!!! Since then I have been on a high dose, plus magnesium with K2- MK4. I can't believe after suffering for so long I am finally seeing improvement. I can finally tie my shoes or load the dishwasher without feeling like I'm going to fall over. Please do your research and watch videos on youtube to see what other people are going through with this deficiency and with you living up north there's a good probability you could be dealing with it. I live in South Carolina and see plenty of sun and my husband and myself are dealing with this. Just wanted to share this with you because not one doctor that I have been to could give me any hope on what was wrong with me. After a lot of prayers I finally got my answer.
Woah, hope all is ok now?! It's kinda frustrating when you get an "everything is ok". Yeah ok, I'm glad I'm ok but why was I not for awhile? No real answers.
❤
You should watch Doug and Stacy homestead
I had experienced the same problems about feeling dizzy. I, too, was feeling nauseous even vomiting (first 2 months) and experiencing headaches. I even visited neurology and ent. Had cat scan or mri done. They told me that I was fine. It took 8 months and so for me to get over it. What really helped me for my headaches were Tylenol instead of the prescription meds. Soon after that I started experiencing a real bad lower back problem. I was beginning to think that my whole illness was related with my nerves. So be aware of your spinal cords. And who knows, you might have a pinched nerve somewhere around your lower back. And yes, the best treatment for your back is Tylenol for Arthritis and allow your back to heal. God Bless.
Please have your Vitamin D levels checked. Vitamin D deficiency can cause severe dizziness, headaches, and real bad lower back pain. I've had all of these symptoms plus more and since I've been on Vit D I am seeing a big improvement in how I feel.
@@jennifercockrell3374 You are exactly right. Ever since that I started taking Calcium plus Vit. D+, i began to get better. I told this to my doctor. Thank you for comment. I felt validated because my MD didn't know what to say.
@@vicki-870 you're very welcome. My MD is just as clueless. I know the frustration. I've been suffering for years with this and not once did he or any other Dr he sent me too said, "these problems could come from Vit D deficiency." Through the grace of God and lots of prayers, I finally got my answer. Now, every time I come across someone talking about similar ailments I like to encourage them to just have their levels checked. A lot of people are deficient and have no clue. I'm glad you're feeling better.
I started feeling dizzy 6 weeks after my second phizer covid shot. Drs say anxiety, so who knows but it was really bad for 15 months .
I get dizzy from blood sugar and low blood sugar.
OMG….Cliff Hangerrrrr!
Hope you didn't take the shot. Keep homesteading, eating healthy and take care of yourself and your family. Keep preparing because our country is going to crap quickly.
MRIs of the brain are the worst for claustrophobic patients. I have to help those patients through their MRI a lot.
6:30 Our bodies are a crystal with a heavy bacterial infection.
Through the wintermonths, I was very sick. Too many illnesses. Kids brought stuff home from Kindergarten. My parents and the little ones struggled hard too (only the husband was ok). I just started a new job that we needed..., we bought our homestead 1 year ago and we're heavily in dept. Had to go through all that medical stuff as well and nothing would be done. I was miserable. Since the son is coming back, I'm doing better, but it was freaking scary.
What do you do for medical and as that grows with age?
It is the house location, isn't it? 😅
Do you drink coffee? I had vertigo for a week a year and half ago. I found out that coffee was a trigger. I had to stop drinking it.
I pay for my copies of my MRI images. I have these huge images 16x20. They can print them if you really want them. It's a pain for them but you can insist on it if you really want them. They prefer digital cd now. I get brain MRI and MRAs every year.
Just stress man. I like the comment below from Nancy Seery
also leaky gut syndrome causes all kinds of symptoms .....
Ask for cd of mri
what climate zone is this ?
My husband went through a similar spell. He couldn’t even drive he was so dizzy. We finally went to a natural Doctor and found out that he had Gerd and a hiatus hernia. Pretty crazy. Praying that you get some answers. I know how frustrating it is.
9 minutes to wait to hear that nothing was wrong with you...physically? Glad to hear that your Neuro doc came up with nothing. Mine did the same only to find out he was wrong.
Honestly, I think the majority of your viewers just figured that the Sunny Mtn "purchase" went belly up. Oh and nice plugs to try to get people to watch previous videos. 🤣
Im sure you know about the chemtrails, that stuff cannot be good for us
Just curious if you have been tested for Alpha gal? My husband had the exact same symptoms and after 6 months of all the wrong diagnosis' they finally figured it out. Which might also explain the issues with milk you were having.
Your the second person to mention it this week! Maybe time to do some research! Thanks. Christy!
Still no proof of Aust's brain. Jk jk. Happy the MRI came back good and hopefully they find your ailment quickly
It happened to me as well, crazy life 🧬😂❤️🩹😧🤣
My dr told me I got the lottery of brain diseases 😎
Forevermore get to the point already
Get checked for Lyme disease
Your hair is getting very salt and pepper! A little more salt than pepper every year if anything like my OH
To even start to take you seriously. Will you please just put in a Mario outfit first then shoot the video? Am I the only one?
We actually did that in a previous video 😂
@@Homesteadyshow I would so come and shoot a garden video with you guys. As Mario and Luigi. That would be great
Omg, sorry you were ill, but 9 min & 11 seconds to say your okay?? Nothing to follow here. I don't have the time to waste on your Loooong speeches, & then, in another video...
Please drop “gyped” from your vocabulary. It is a deeply racist & derogatory term against the Roma people.
I'm sure I'm not the first person to mention this in these comments, but the term "gypped" is actually a racial slur against Romani peoples/travellers, and is not really politically correct. Not trying to scold you or anything, just trying to politely inform you that some people may find it offensive.
Thanks for informing me and doing so in a classy way Reilly!
Maybe you could tell us how gypped came about. Did Romani/travellers have a reputation of swiddleing people or is this false?
