Thanks Glynis. I've decided that I'll see if I can make any progress with the hospital tomorrow, failing that I'll try to get a GP appointment for Wednesday to see if they can help.

Hmm, I don't think there'll be much relaxing for me (not that it makes any difference to my t or dizziness/balance issues anyway!) I phoned the hospital today about a follow-up appointment. It would seem that, 2 weeks after I saw the audiologist, he referred me to a different consultant at the...

Thanks Glynis, I appreciate it.

Thanks, @glynis, Meniere's was mentioned by my GP. I wasn't having the problem with my legs giving way when I saw her but there was a suspicion of hearing loss at that stage. I don't think the audiologist has ruled Meniere's out yet, because although my hearing was normal I was told it can come...

Hi Sorry, this is going to be long post! I've only posted on here a couple of times, but having spent some time "lurking" I don't think I've come across anyone who has all the same symptoms as me. I think I have 3 different types of t: the first is constant, high-pitched, and I've had it for...

Thank you:-)

Hi Glynis Many thanks for the quick reply. I've read all the accounts on here of people's MRI scans so I'm not worried about the procedure itself, I'm just wondering how much use it will be if it's done without contrast. It may sound odd, but I actually want to have the contrast as it might give...

Hello everyone I've been "lurking" on here for a couple of weeks but decided it was time I stopped hiding. I also have some questions that I haven't been able to find the answer to. The cause of my one-sided pulsatile tinnitus is being investigated on the NHS, my GP referred me as she suspected...
