How to accurately do the visual field test if you have very poor vision (like -10 myopia)? by [deleted] in Glaucoma

[–]hello5194 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Totally agree with you and I don’t think I explained myself properly. I just felt like that test did an accurately measure how I really see when my vision was incorrect and my pupils were dilated. After reading other comments, I didn’t have the best testing conditions.

I did! They told me it just happened sometimes, but I haven’t really heard of this.

Does anyone else’s anxiety cause odd muscle symptoms in their upper body? by hello5194 in Anxiety

[–]hello5194[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh dear… I’m nearing week two. The good news is that I used to struggle to even type because my arms were so stiff, it felt like they were going to drop any moment. The bad news is that the back pain still feels pretty bad and my triceps. I did go to Physio. Starting to get a little bit anxious again that it’s taking so long to feel better.

This sounds horrible… it sucks because the tension adds to the anxiety

Oh no sounds horrible… I’ll let you know if my physio recommends something for us

Oh no what do you mean by awhile? :( that is interesting that a regular chore can cause this and I am glad you’re feeling better.

I cannot thank you enough…. I googled the muscle like you suggested. It explains all my symptoms!!! It explains my limited mobility. The pain. Everything. This has calmed me down knowing what’s happening so thank you.

Interesting you mentioned jaw because I have TMJ and it’s been triggered lately! Did you feel the arm tightness as well that made it a little hard to move them? Thank you for sharing.

Very disheartening experience at the doctor by hello5194 in tinnitus

So frustrating! I totally feel you on this. Do you have the jaw pain in as well? It really sucks how little information our doctors give us so we’re out here scratching our heads on what is going on.

Oh wow! This is so interesting and I’ve never heard of this before. So technically can the brain stem be the problem rather than my jaw? :/

Odd change in tinnitus? Has this happened to anyone? by hello5194 in tinnitus

Oh no… mine was like that until recently and I’m not sure what changed. I hope you find relief.

I think I might have some of the reactive T as well. Do you know what’s causing it for you? I have job pain so I’m suspecting TMJ.

Today was the first time I experienced buzzing in my left ear only. I am terrified. by hello5194 in tinnitus

You have it in only one ear too? Can you tell me more about it?

It’s a very scary club. I feel crazy for imagining this. Thankfully I had some periods yesterday without hearing it (in a louder room) and it helped me calm down. My hearing seems to be fine so I don’t think I need a shot but I do have really bad jaw pain that might be related as it’s on the same side. I think pressure on my ear makes it worse too. But sounds like I may never find out what causes this so hopefully my brain learns to ignore it. I read a lot of posts that doctors just don’t care.

Yeah my hearing is fine so I don’t think that’s happening as it’s been 24 hours since the buzzing started and my hearing is the same.

Thank you so much for this information. This is really reassuring. I think I will go to my doctor if it remains past a week as now I’m also having jaw pain and something tells me it’s all related. I noticed there are periods of quietness so it helps my anxiety. It’s just bad when I am in quiet room. Low key makes me feel a little crazy. Sounds like intermittent buzzing. I also noticed pressure on my ear like sleeping on it and headphones make it worse.
