    Anyone Diagnosed with PPPD/CSD (Constant Dizziness)?

    After a big cold I got tinnitus, so probably a ear infection. A few weeks later I got the balance problems. By "label" I meant to say it's not a clearcut diagnosis. They can't see directly the vestibular organ so they go by inference. I agree re: maladaptation. I have a great specialist who...

    Anyone Diagnosed with PPPD/CSD (Constant Dizziness)?

    Thank you for your reply and sorry to hear you are still struggling. I don't react well to SSRI, and SNRI are notoriously difficult to get off. PPPD is probably just a label, they don't really understand what's happening in detail but I had read that sometimes it goes away or can be reduced...

    Lenire — Bimodal Stimulation Treatment by Neuromod

    I was wondering as well. Also, "Lenire® is not suitable for everyone with tinnitus. If the audiologist determines that you are not suitable for treatment with Lenire® and that an alternative treatment is more appropriate, you will be provided with a detailed referral recommendation." Any idea...

    Anyone Diagnosed with PPPD/CSD (Constant Dizziness)?

    Sorry to bump this old post but I'm quite interested in this. @Dizzyhead888, I have been diagnosed with PPPD too. It started about 1 month after tinnitus. Together with tinnitus this is a terrible combination, you try to relax lying down and tinnitus freaks you out, you try to get a walk...

    Should I Quit My Job? — I Work Part Time at a School Where There Are Loud Kids, School Bells, etc.

    I'm very interested in this. May I ask what kind of shop can take measurements and produce custom ear plugs? I googled it but didn't find much. I found this for example https://www.acscustom.com/uk/how-to-buy but I am not so sure. I'm often in London UK and could try to find a shop there.

    Solsaem Clinic (Dr. Minbo Shim) Experience

    Re: why hasn't the doctor presented his results at TRI2019. I don't know. Is the conference by invitation only or can you submit a paper? Is there a committee that scrutinises the submitted papers? It could be that this doctor is good and well meaning but outside the academic loop and doesn't...

    8 Months Since My Tinnitus Got Worse. I'm No Longer the Person I Was.

    It is. Lenire should be much closer, though. Are the FX-322, REGAIN and Otonomy programs that far? I was hoping for a few years rather than a few decades, even if at the moment I live hour by hour.

    8 Months Since My Tinnitus Got Worse. I'm No Longer the Person I Was.

    I am in a similar situation, Allan1967. I am sorry you are going through this. I hope Lenire and the hearing regeneration programs may help us in a not too distant future, and in any case I hope you can habituate again soon.

    Lyrica Withdrawal/Tinnitus Getting Worse!

    Sorry for resurrecting an old thread but I would be interested in this. I seem to be experiencing louder and louder tinnitus while tapering Pregabalin. Has anyone else had the same experience and has it calmed down once off the drug?

    Back to Silence

    Thank you very much for taking the time to write this very helpful reply, Henry. I have experimented today and there were long intervals of time where I could do nothing but observe the tinnitus without judgement. It is difficult, the mind kind of rebels and wants to start the usual commentary...

    Back to Silence

    Thank you very much for this, inspiring and encouraging. My main difficulty is that now I hear it all the time. In particular, in the morning and at night but also in the street and over TV, at work etc. Troubleshooting the three steps: 1- STOP talking about tinnitus, measuring it, comparing...

    Can Tinnitus Cause Dizziness? I'm Having Bad Dizziness 1 Year After Tinnitus Onset

    I'm new here. I have had balance problems starting 2 months after tinnitus. It looks more like PPPD or disembarkment syndrome than vertigo. ENTs have not helped much so far, I had a number of tests. I'll see a balance specialist next week. The main theory at the moment is that a virus has...
