Hello,,ive been having problems with an inner ear problem for many years. I have positional vertigo, and the little calcium stone that circulates and give the wrong signal to the brain and this is where I get the spinning. Ive had ent try to place the stone so it doesnt bother me and the 4 different types of repositioning procedures that doesnt seem to work. Now a head and neck surgeon who also specialises in balance disorders is telling me that there is surgery that could help. I have to have a vestibular test,water caloric test, otolith function and audiometric test and then he checks to see if the repositoning of the stone helped. Has anyone heard of this surgery or these test that I have to do. Would like to hear from you ...Need to calm my fears and want to know what to expect when I go in may 2006.
Thanks
edna
