Hey everyone :yesyes:
Well the 1st June 2010 has arrived (almost lol).
I am seeing an ENT specialist at 2pm tomorrow, regarding my ear troubles ive had.
Back in February I was in hospital with severe dizziness and sharp head pains and blurred vision. CT scan was 'All Clear' and everything completely disappeared within minutes of hearing the consultant say those 2 words :) This was when i realised that the mind was a seriously powerful thing..
I did however have a hearing test and it showed 'Negative Pressure and Slight Hearing Loss' in my right ear, and the audiologist said my eardrum wasnt moving properly. Im 22 so these sort of symptoms such as hearing loss are nopt considered 'normal' at my age, so they booked me in for a follow up 3months later (tomorrow!) . The wait has been agonising, as im sooo desperate (but anxious) about what could be causing this.
I suffer with the following (just ear symptoms):
* Hearing loss in right ear (and left sometimes)
* Pain & fullness in right ear
* When i bite down or open my mouth wide, I get a sort of 'wind' or 'sand whifting' sound from within my right ear, like air is blowing out of my ear. It feels like something is being released out of my ear. When i google this, it seems that what im feeling is 'pressure being released from behind my eardrum', which is giving off the sound that air or something is blowing out of my ear.
*Dizziness and balance problems. Sudden strong dizziness that makes me spin-out for a few seconds, which is the most scariest symptom i must say.
So basically i think i have a problem from within my middle ear. I have had at least 8 ear-drum perforations in my lifetime and cannot go out in the wind or get water in my ears. It hurts like hell and i immediatley get an ear infection/earache for DAYS after. What im hoping is someone to FINALLY give me a diagnosis and not just fob me off out the door.. doctors have been utter rubbish i must say :unsure:
Anyway, so tomorrow il be finding out what is causing these ear problems, and whether or not i have to have an MRI scan. (ENT doc at hospital in Feb said if they cant find a logical explanation then a MRI scan will be given) :scared15:
Wish me luck anyway guys, il be online to update u all tomorrow around dinner time.
PS. Chest pains & ectopics have been almost completely non-existent today, but now im sat here worryhing about tomorrow, i can feel it creeping in (Dull ache in centre of chest and weird pinching sensation under left breast) Im putting it down to anxiety and am guna stop moaning to u all about it LOL :winks:
Sorry for the long post..
Thanks :)
