I started having balance issues several months back, because I refuse to see a Dr more than once a year, I don’t know why. But I got a shower chair for safety. Also I have horrible body odor (to me) if I don’t bathe at least every other day. (Familial, my sister buys some expensive body deodorant stuff for the problem).

Obviously up to you, but it might be a good idea to see a doctor more often when you're having new symptoms. Even if it's just telehealth visits. Sudden balance issues could be serious.

Oh, I agree. I just hate Doctors and the cost. Also I don’t have a car, so I have to find a ride there and back. Then there are the tests, and after all that, he will say “It’s cuz your old” or something like that. I am not worried about it.
