    I only found out about this a couple of years ago when I had the courage to mention it to my ENT. I'm 70 and when I was a child people tended to think I was nuts when I mentioned the swishing noise when I move my eyes or the sound somewhat like thunder when closing my eyes hard. These videos I've recently found have explained so much. Like, I didn't know this affects balance and vertigo. My husband and I have always just laughed about me not being able to walk in a straight line when we walk beside each other. When he bought this horrid surround sound system for listening to house shaking bass when watching a movie I about climbed the wall. He can only use it if I am not home. No matter how I try, it just fills me with so much tension I want to scream.

    I thank my surgeon, Dr. Yoshikawa every day. And almost more importantly, Dr. Hwang, who was the first of 12 different doctors to diagnose me. I am grateful this terrible condition has increasing surgical options. I truly believe it saved my life--and I was only 25.

      Dr. Yoshikawa? Omg she is working with me and has diagnosed me with SSCD. Unfortunately she is extremely overbooked to the point that her calendar does not allow for any appointment bookings until July or later. I was hoping to get this resolved sooner, but feel more relief of having this finally diagnosed!

    Thank you SO much Dr. Yang and UCLA staff for bringing this to light. It is a silent syndrome, and no one understands when I try to explain it. I'll just forward this video to anyone that asks me about SSCD lol. I am seeing a great Neurotologist in Tampa, FL, Dr. Christopher J. Danner. If surgery is in order I do hope Tampa General has the same brain map navigation. Amazing!

I do feel that the doctors at UCLA have the most knowledge and updated info regarding SCDS and have communicated numerous times with Dr. Gopen there. Even scheduled surgery there but I chickened out. Feel free to look me up on fb Jennifer Boyes Thomas and I can fill you in more. :)

    Thank you for the insightful video. I am having this surgery in 3 days. Well, it’s a duel surgery in which my ENT surgeon will fix the superior semicircular canal and the missing tegmen. The neurosurgeon will then remove the lesions in the temporal lobe. I feel much better about this part of the surgery after watching this. I’ll check back in periodically to let y’all know how I’m holding up

      When I told an ENT (30 years ago, as I was seeking a diagnosis for brutal episodes of vertigo & nausea) that I could hear my eyeballs moving, he looked at me like I had a tree growing out of my head. He had no idea what was wrong with me (though I’m sure he thought I was mentally ill). I think I told maybe one other doctor, with the same result. After that, never mentioned it to anyone again. A few people knew I had episodes of vertigo that were incapacitating, but I stopped mentioning that, and the many other symptoms, to doctors.
      I only learned about SSCD a few months ago, totally randomly, from one of those Buzzfeed articles about weird medical conditions. I was gobsmacked.
      I still don’t have an official diagnosis, because symptoms are milder than they used to be, so I do not want surgery. But I still hear my eyeballs move, “hear” things moving around inside my pillow, get screeching noises in my ear, feel like my ear is plugged up, stumble on nothing, have random episodes of unexplained nausea, and experience episodes of vertigo.

    The "RW" Question was likely about Round Window. i.e. questioning re-enforcement of the round window as an approach of dulling symptoms. If anyone else has this question I'd say that it doesn't fix the issue if its 100% confirmed SCDS... and may make it worse. Note that its the right approach if the issue is with the round window itself (perilymph fistula)... so you have to be 100% sure of your diagnosis before going through with any surgery.

However, that diagnosis did not include other symptoms I was having such as hearing my eyeballs and hearing my heartbeat. I'm so thankful to finally know what the problem is but now I'm concerned about the doctors here that insisted I only had bppv after 5 times of being in the hospital.

    Can you have just a few of the symptoms. I mean. I get pulsating tinnitus and hearing loss. Hypercusis, and the sound of criquetes or grasshoppers in my ear. I'm not sure what I have. I have had noise induced vertigo before. I have had Ménière's disease as a diagnosis before at guys hospital in London. Since then I have been seen at queens square hospital for neurology and neon surgery in London. They said it ain't Ménière's disease although the hearing loss does resemble Ménière's. They concluded I have vestibular migraine. It's very frustrating to not know what's causing this. My life is crap. This is all in the left ear. I also have amplyopia in my left eye and the doctors have said this could be contributing to my symptoms.

    When you "hear" body movements can this include spikes in Tinnitus in response to your entire body pitching forward or rolling left? Somatosensory tinnitus, without the ocular triggers? I certainly have hearing loss, fullness, repeated ear infections since head trauma and a motorcycle chopper noise going by can stop me in my tracks to cover my ears, loud sounds. I cannot run like I used to because every step causes a huge spike in Tinnitus. Spike happens when I walk or hit a bump of any kind in a car or on a bike. Certain transmissions (and many cars I ride in) resonate painfully.

    Hi, I had a perforated eardrum around 6 months ago and now in my left ear, i can hear my jaw clicking / eustachian tube opening/closing and when I look up with my left eye I can hear a rumbling sound, my balance on my left side is quite bad too but that's always been a problem to me, I also have a dull pins and needles feeling on the left side of my scalp, and tinnitus too, plus the feeling of fullness in my ear, plus i also can hear my heartbeat if i lie on that side .. I do have slight hyperacusis/sensitivity to sound too, although i don't really get dizzy... when i first had the accident it sounded like i had a fly or something in head it was quite bad, but that has died down, the only thing now is looking up i get the rumbling.. its kinda hard to explain to my gp or an ENT even... i think this is more of an injury than a disease.. but i cant see it getting better , do you think this is SSCD, at the moment my docters have me down as having tinitus but there is so much more to it than just a ringing in my head... its a real puzzle for me, any help or suggestions would be much appreciated. thanks

    At 21:30 and again at 23:00 Dr. Yang speaks about migraines with this disease and how people who have migraine may have prolonged recovery or "not do so well with the surgery and recovery". Does Dr. Yang suggest that people with Migraine should not have this surgery? Can someone please elaborate a little more on this topic? Is this because people hope this will cure their Migraine/headaches or is it because people with Migraine have similar migraine symptoms this surgery will not cure? Or is there a risk with SSCD surgery and Migraine that may cause people to have worsened symptoms or never recover? At 23:00 Dr. Yang said; People with Migraine do not do so well with the surgery so it sounds like to me this surgery is something that I should avoid. I have SSCD. I also am currently under treatment for GIST Cancer so I take Chemo everyday. I have 22 Migraines per month that are debilitating. I take BOTOX injections every three months and have the migraines down to 12 per month now. I am trying to decide if I should wait for improvements in the surgery or not have it until I can no longer function.
    I first had symptoms of SSCD in July 2014. It started 1 week before I started Chemo. I thought it was the Chemo but after the High Resolution CT scan of the temporal bone back in June 2016, I now know it is a different problem. The SSCD is on the right side. My left ear always fills full. (Maybe I have it on both sides?) My ears ring always! When I scratch my head it sounds like someone sanding a drum head with sand paper. At night I hear the blood swishing and swooshing back and forth in my head in my left ear. sometimes I hear my neck joints squeak. I have terrible motion sickness caused by vibration so I do not drive very much anymore. Coughing, sneezing etc sets it off. I have 38-40 motion sickness spells every ten minutes for two years now. It is 24-7, they only last for as long as a sneeze but a few seconds later, I have the feeling again. any vibration sets it off. I cannot wash dishes without experiencing hundreds of these spells. Driving or riding in a car is almost to the point that I feel like I could tell you the date on a dime if I were to run over one of them. I get extremely fatigued/brain fog.Some days are worse then other days. When I am fatigued, I lay on my couch and slip into a twilight for an hour or two and then I can function better. If I do not take that rest period I am done for the day. The chemo fatigues me too. I take Gleevec. The SSCD has physically been worse then the cancer ever has.
    I am trying to decide if surgery is right for me but keep finding stuff that suggest it is not right for me. I am a single parent of a seven year old child, I run a tight ship because of these illnesses and I work around the days that are not good for me so as long as I can still take care of him, I feel I should not have this surgery.

    Diagnosed with SSCD by Dr. Stroud, Amarillo Texas. When everything is quiet, I can hear my heart, my eyes and my steps. Loud noises make the room bounce and kind of "throw me off" for a second. However, I don't have these symptoms all the time. What I DO HAVE.......... is a constant sensitivity to ... not loud...but louder noises. Anything over a soft sound is somewhat painful - uncomfortable. But THE WORST is when i speak, anything over a whisper, is just like playing a kazoo - like, if I held the kazoo between my front teeth and played it while speaking. Head vibrates, teeth vibrate - - - so it's my own voice that makes me the most uncomfortable. Singing is virtually impossible. I don't have any headaches unless I am around loud noises constantly, then I can have a bit of a headache but it goes away quickly when I either block the noises (earphones and listening to music) or retreat to a quiet environment. Seems all of us are different - and I feel I'm pretty fortunate that I don't have worse symptoms. But I am surrounded by people who are hard of hearing, and raising my voice to speak to those I love is PAINFUL to me and disheartening. And........my ear always feels "full"... like on a plane and I need to pop my ears, except multiplied by 5.

So he's hearing the muscles that contact to protect the ear, rumble his ear drum. I have it too and told no SCDS. My tensor tympani is very sensitive, I can even voluntarily control it.
