I had this surgery, best thing I ever did, immediate relief. I do have positional vertigo from it, but I'm so happy I did it. good luck to you, speedy recovery!!
Thank you so much. I don't know if you have it on both sides, but I do. I've been torturing myself over this thing for a long time. I do want to get it done. I just need to get through the process, I guess.
This has taken over my life. I just decided to have the surgery after going back and forth about it for 3 years. Because I was so scared of all the things that could go wrong. When my doctor asked me what had made me decide to have the surgery. I told him this has taken my life away from me. You might as well put me in a jail cell. That's how I feel at home. Never feel good. Never want to talk to anyone because of the echo. And so on & on & on & on & on. I have it on both sides. We're doing the left side first because that's the really bad side. Surgery is in August. I feel so bad for anyone who has to live with this. I know how scary it is to choose to just monitor your situation or have the surgery. It's not an easy call to make. I changed my mind 3 times before this. I'm just sick of this taking over my life. And I pray 🙏 that everything goes well.
I hope the surgery goes well! I too am going to have the surgery as I cannot live like this. I can constantly hear my eyes move and my heart beating, it's awful. I cannot fly as I am horribly dizzy after landing, it's difficult to travel. I wish you the best!!!
I don't care if I lose my hearing during the surgery as long as I come out of the surgery with no more buzzing, heartbeat, in my ears. An echo when I talk. And no more dizziness. I'm thinking some of this stuff will still be there because I have it on both sides. But my doctors said I would definitely benefit from the surgery, so I'm trusting them. Anyway. Do you have your surgery scheduled? Good luck! I know that was not an easy decision to make. It's a major surgery. I will 🙏 for you. Let us know how things are going.
I am scheduled to get surgery next month. I want to be able to have conversations again without the pain and frustration and I want to be able to run and ride my bike without the elephant walking sound in my ear every step. I’m worried that the sound will improve but my balance will get worse because of some of the videos I’ve watched. Did your balance improve, stay the same, or get worse?
I have never been able to describe the sound . . . You described it as a kazoo, and that is exactly it! Thank you for sharing your journey.
