Persistent Dizziness Still Occurring After Mastoidectomy Posted: 09-04-05 17:47pm
I had a mastoidectomy in attempt to reduce
dizziness possibly related to mastoiditis
revealed via ct scan about 9 weeks ago.
I seemed to be improving for the first few
weeks but now the dizziness seems to have
returned with a vengence.
Ive just been for a mri which a nuerolgist
ordered and it reveals:
"there is fluid within the left mastoid
air cell with thickening of its cortical
margins. These findings are consistent
with the previous ct."
does anyone know if this means that my
mastoiditis is still there? Did the
operation not get all the infection?
Maybe this is why im getting so much
dizziness again? I've tried to call my
ent but he's on holidays.
