@RoryAlsop Thank you, I feel much better (lol, You're sick and I feel better!). Ok, I understand and agree (finally!) No longer worried that you'll develop antibiotic associated diarrhea for no reason, or go deaf, or anything other, and think that you're getting good treatment.
See, if I had stayed out of your affairs, all would be well! The problems with practicing medicine over the internet are innumerable. But you are still young, (yes, even now, physiologically) and I do want the best for you. Sorry that you had to quell all my doubts. :(
You're better now, I take it? Labrynthitis is awful. I have a very mild case of Meniere's disease, so have had the vestibular neuritis associated with it only twice, and that was once too often. I do have the tinnitus, and associated hearing loss, though, but neither bother me much. You read about people so bothered by tinnitus that they do extreme things.Makes me wonder how bad it can get...
I have had BPPV, though, and that's a trip! The fact that a few rounds of Epley maneuvers cures it is just as trippy. Medicine is intriguing! I'm really grateful I went into it.
Medically, I'm a bit of a mess, with many not quite bad but not quite good bits. Yesterday, talking to my neighbor, I couldn't remember my youngest dog's name (I've had her for 5 months.) I had to refer to her as "the brown one" several times. For someone who used to have such a sharp memory (if I heard it or read it once, it was there always), it's so, so, so strange!!!
My oldest dog had vestibular neuritis. Poor thing. She had rotatory nystagmus, which I never saw before, and can only imagine how bad it must have felt when horizontal or verticle nystagmus is so awful. To combine the two...ooof. She had it for weeks. Couldn't walk, eat, do stairs...she recovered, but not completely. It was probably a stroke.
