Hi ive just been diagnosed with mav,one of my symptoms really bother me (because it sounds similar to hydrops),out of no where i get very loud tinnitus and my ear feels like its going to burst,accompined with hypercausis,it lasts for a few hours.Does any other mav'ers have this pls??
I have MAV. Maybe my hyperacusis is from that. I think the tinnitus and ear fullness are from MM. It can be hard to sort this out. The great thing about MAV is that if you can figure out what is triggering it you can eliminate those triggers and it goes away. Have you figured that out yet? For me, the main MAV trigger is eyestrain. When I got progressive lens and computer glasses things got much, much better.
No i havent,only just been diagnosed weds so trying to figure it out.My dr said the ear fullness episodes are mav which is why i was wondering if any others have it
Hi Danni noise sensitivity, light, smell, motion sensitivity, tinnitus and ear fullness are MAV symptoms. But man of us have MAV and MM. You might want to check out the link in my signature about MAV and this link how to tell the difference between MAV and MM. http://menieres.org/talk/index.php?topic=1356.0
Does the aural fullness in menieres occur suddenly?? Its literlly happens over a few seconds with me,i cant find too much info on mav causing it like that x
I found these and thought you might be interested considering your current condition. Vicki also has links on her signature profile. They may help as well.
Truth, Vicki spent so much of her own personal time doing research and then sharing her findings with everyone here - newbies and people with lots of questions definitely benefited (and would benefit) from her knowledge if she was still participating here.
