[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, what did your MRI find?[/quote] I do not have a neuroma or infarction or hydrocephalus. What I likely do have is a dysautonomia. I think my issue is due to low blood flow to the brain / auditory nerve. My other symptoms are in line with POTS or orthostatic hypotension, and my relevant symptoms go back to my teen years before they had a name for POTS. PS: Tinnitus may be caused by the brain creating phantom sound due to loss of hearing. Google dorsal cochlea nucleus or see https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3402636/ [/quote] Glad to hear no tumor but I know it can be frustrating not having an official diagnosis. Woman PP with sporadic tinnitus too, I had never looked up POTS but I have very similar symptoms too. Did your doctor have any suggestions for what to do next? [/quote] Yes, I have been on steroids. I am getting steroid shots in my ear drum but it might be too late. [/quote]
