    Ear Fullness and Balance

    I have balance issues that are an absolute nightmare. My vision bobs up and down when i walk, and when I'm still the image wobbles a little. I'm going for balance tests shortly :/ I'm aware this is down to damage to the vestibular system inside your ear so it's totally related. You can try...

    Anyone Else Have Ultra-High Frequency Tinnitus?

    Mines a sheet of white noise at everything above 13khz, it's piercing but can barely hear it in the fresh air, at night or in silence it turns into a monster tho, also moving my neck sometimes brings on a high pitch tone in my left ear that i would kill myself if it stuck

    My Tinnitus Is Unbearable and Getting Worse

    I'm like you, unmaskable, i also have vestibular problems too which screw my vision up. One thing i found helps is actually do stuff, just concentrate on what you are doing, also using loud masking...If it has to be loud to mask it make it loud but relaxing. Like we can fall asleep in a moving...

    Tinnitus for Nearly 4 Weeks Now... Scared Mirtazapine Might Make My Tinnitus Worse...

    Sorry to hear :( Mixed reports I personally wouldn't recommend it, I'm sure my hearing loss started with remeron but others say it helped. All drugs are toxic, check the other posts on mirtazapene and remeron maybe theres some help.

    Who's Stuck on Benzos?

    Why did the doctor die? I was on lorazepam for 3 months pushed on me when my anxiety was high, which was all the time due to not wanting to take anything. I got hearing loss virtually straight away from remeron, seroquel, and lorazepam all ototoxic or side effects... I didn't know what the...

    Eye Problems

    I'm guessing the hearing loss associated with my tinnitus also affects my balance system. Tho I had a vestibular assessment and this seemed fine, the physio said it was neck problems? As you say I think the visual snow is an entirely different entity, I'm sure I read something about the visual...
