I wish my family would watch this episode. They don't think it's a big deal because it not visible like a broken leg. I've wanted to jam pencils in my ears on MULTIPLE occasions.

A friend recommended I watch that episode it was awesome! I am working toward taking the advice given on how to cope.

Hang in there. I know exactly how you feel. During one fit of madness I considered shoving a pencil in my ear! Hopefully we both feel better soon.

Hi Lunar Firefly- Your story sounds a lot like mine but I've had PT for a little more than two months. My PCP referred me to a neuro for evaluation of peripheral neuropathy in my lower legs. The drug he put me on caused my brain to liquefy so I weaned off and refused any other meds. I too had...

Thank you Karen. I will get clarification of which test it is

I don't know which it is. I got a message from the doc at 5 to 5 - typical Do you know anyone who had had one?

Still driving me crazy! It seems to increase as the day goes on for me too.

Hi Karen - ENT has referred me for MRI of my brain and Dopplers. I will have them next Tuesday. She said I may need to fight the insurance company for payment. Will see what happens. Today was a better day w the PT. I was busy most of the day. When things settled down the PT was roaring...

Good morning Karen Thank you for your reply. I feel better about the possible tests now. I called the ENT and told them I was concerned about my symptoms and waiting for a month to see a doctor. They are able to see me today. I will let you know how that goes. The tulsi holy basil is the...

Hi Karen - I can't thank you enough for your guidance. My TN was really bad this morning. Last night I got dizzy when I was in the shower. I fell but the curtain prevented me from falling out of the tub. I have decided to call the ENT tomorrow. Perhaps she can refer me for imaging studies...
