How colds disorient me

Yes, they sure do! When my head is all stuffed up, then I don’t hear well and I become confused. When I constantly have to take care of a runny nose while traveling or doing something, I lose my concentration and focus, and when my ears are all clogged up then I surely become disoriented.

For the mainstream person it is definitely the same but when you are blind it is a bit more difficult because whereas the mainstream person can use their sight to help them maintain their equilibrium, we do not have that luxury of sight to help us. So what do I do?

Whenever I have a cold, I take things very easy. I try not to work too much outside or at my computer.
