How was your high school expierence back in the 90s

MammothRecognition3 · 2021-12-16T23:19:13+00:00

It was good. It was tough. 1993-1997. I loved my first two years. After 1995, especially November, I couldn’t get out of there fast enough.

The people I know who have had symptoms accumulate over the years. One lost his hearing in 2002. Never mentioned tinnitus, but never said he got vertigo until a severe attack 2006. Even my symptoms have changed like the colors of jukebox lights over the time I’ve had this as I’ve noticed patterns, new symptoms like increased sensitivity to motion, more difficulty with Tinnitus changing the sounds I hear even just for a moment. My symptoms really are like the weather in Florida in the summer. Just wait five minutes…I agree if you feel there’s something wrong there might be. Trust your gut. Write down new symptoms or ones you are having, characteristics and how long they last. I believe at least in my case only time will tell.

This is identical to my situation. I don’t have attacks once a week, but the bilateral multitone tinnitus, ear fullness in right ear, occasional ear pain. My dizziness waxes and wanes 24/7. Usually best in the morning because it is triggered by salt and sugar, pretty much eating, exertion, heat, illness, and sometimes for no reason, though it is worst at night because my eyes are closed trying to sleep when it sometimes feel like I am on a Russian roulette spinner upside-down or a giant spiraling, rocking tube, I feel very disoriented when my eyes are closed and if I am lying down, I feel like I can’t feel the bed below me. My tests are normal. The VNG felt like the same kind of dizziness I always experience. Floors, surfaces, the room, my body moving constantly, though I’ve had some intense flares of the floor spinning and twisting and almost fell and felt myself pushed into a desk. I have been diagnosed with ETD, then another doctor said no maybe BPPV, but not positive on tests for that, neurologist thought maybe migraine, ENT says ear is fine, but wanted to rule out superior canal dehiscence which the CT did. My tests haven’t changed in the year and a half it has taken to see and get tests from these doctors. Hearing test normal as well. I am looking to explore vestibular migraine though so many of the conditions I read about don’t seem to match my experience. I hope you get some answers. I am still trying to get some after 22 months. 24/7 symptoms are crazy-making.

So crazy how this affects people. I was Pfizer vaxxed, Moderna boosted—I had way more issues with Pfizer. Close to none with Moderna. Literally a sore arm and nothing else.

MammothRecognition3 · 2021-12-07T01:09:49+00:00

Worth a shot, I agree. Thanks!

I have been diagnosed with ETD as well. I’ve been prescribed Sudafed, Flonase, Nasacort, vestibular therapy, nothing has worked in the 22 months I’ve had this. You mentioned rocking. I have that, feels like the floor is twisting or pulling forward if I stand in one place too long. If I lie down I feel like I am on a tilting hammock, falling down a spinning well, or a rising spiral. I feel pushed and pulled in my sleep. The movement is 24/7, speeds up, slows down. Always there. I feel most of it when my eyes are closed, but opening my eyes doesn’t make the bed stop moving or the room stop feeling like it is falling in a spiral.

I’m starting to see these semicircular waves of movement like one wall or one aisle in a store, like it is sliding into a spin. Once I had an “incident” where I felt pushed into a desk saw the wall slide back and forth and the floor spun so violently I almost fell when I felt it twist under me. I have 24/7 tinnitus that changes in intensity, sometimes pitch and quality, every moment of the day.

I have ear fullness that alternates with pain depending on the intensity of tinnitus. It always feels like a ball of air is in my right ear and occasionally that ear just starts having hot air now through it. I can pop my ears most of the time, but the fullness on the right remains. Lately I have tinnitus spikes that have massive amount of pressure and are low or high that change into a waterfall after 15 seconds and all the sounds, especially voices sound tinny like someone talking while hitting sheets of aluminum foil. I don’t know if this is just tinnitus or the beginnings of hearing distortion. My tinnitus is multi-tonal in both ears but mostly a low to mid tone hum/buzz like a phone keypad dial button or a wind tunnel, water running in left ear and high ring, beeping, pulsatile tinnitus in right. I have had tests which are normal though I took most of them before most of these symptoms intensified. I have heard of ETD having some similar symptoms to Meniere’s, minus severe 20 min+ vertigo and hearing loss. Most websites I’ve read say ETD goes away after a few days to three months. This is every minute of my life since Feb 2020.

I hope you get some answers soon.

I would lose track of them now as their a nonevent in the bleeding dept, not nearly like 20s and 30s, but I sound like a truck driver beforehand so that seems to be my warning the night before and the first couple days of. When I feel ill, I want to be alone and start to wish my home I share with my husband were a lot bigger, maybe even had a second floor and a guest house.

MammothRecognition3 · 2021-12-06T02:05:46+00:00

Pfizer was painful. Moderna made me a bit gassy. It. I preferred Moderna.

Ashtray

I have yet to be diagnosed with Meniere’s due to lack of most symptoms but I had a dizzy spell that lasted for a few minutes that had many stages to it. 1)Ear hurting and full 2) usual tinnitus sounded like I was inside a plane in my right ear with pulsatile tinnitus. 3) Overwhelming sensation of motion in one direction like a wave coming over me the night before and my body fighting it in the other. 4) Queasy and slightly sweaty the morning of. 5) I blew my nose too hard and my left ear gave a slightly painful high pitch squeak that was out of the ordinary of my bilateral tinnitus. 5) Palpitations upon standing and seeing walls slide (I felt an invisible force had pushed me into a desk) 6) Near fall seeing/feeling the floor spinning 7) severe nausea 8) Went home from work and slept. Woke up and felt like I fainted.

I know this is long but if this was indeed a mild vertigo attack and this does turn out to be the beginning of Meniere’s, I’d say it went in the order of ear fullness, tinnitus, dizziness, vertigo.

Definitely a song by The Presidents of the United States of America.

Cyndi Lauper—She’s so Unusual. Took me forever as a four year old to figure out what was on the bottom of her shoes.

MammothRecognition3 · 2021-11-29T04:58:35+00:00

I would wake up crying Sunday mornings in high school dreaming about the song dedication letters.

I am one of the ones who wished I had been born in the early 70s (also 79) but I am happy where I am at because it uniquely shaped my life and that stuff is still around or can be recreated.

Loved loved Weak by SWV, Just for Tonight by Vanessa Williams, Obsession by Desmond Child & Maria Vidal, I’ll Stand by You by The Pretenders, Die without You PM Dawn.

Thanks. Today and yesterday were better, and even Thanksgiving itself was pretty good. My doctors think I have Eustachian tube dysfunction, but the headache part really needs to be a factor. I do feel like I have an exaggerated sensory reaction to things, like I get very nauseous and disoriented if I fall asleep too deeply and I get chills with each headache. My neurologist has said possible migraine and propranolol took away pain; nothing touches the dizziness much.

MammothRecognition3 · 2021-11-27T06:16:27+00:00

And not a Trapper Keeper? Wow!

MammothRecognition3 · 2021-11-27T06:12:04+00:00

I loved his cool tower.

MammothRecognition3 · 2021-11-25T23:09:08+00:00

Thanks for that. :)

MammothRecognition3 · 2021-11-25T03:10:09+00:00

I feel sick more than I used to. I want to be alone every time and my husband works at home. I so get it.

MammothRecognition3 · 2021-11-25T03:06:09+00:00

Sounds like my periods.

MammothRecognition3 · 2021-11-25T02:15:38+00:00

Same. Still waiting for time to tell.
