Tinnitus

IIH and exotropia:
Idiopathic Intracranial Hypertension (IIH) causes elevated brain pressure that can trigger sixth nerve (abducens) palsy, resulting in horizontal double vision or, in some cases, exotropia (outward eye turning). While inward turning (esotropia) is more common with this nerve palsy, IIH can lead to various ocular motor disturbances.

IIH and optic nerve atrophy:
Idiopathic Intracranial Hypertension (IIH) causes chronic, elevated pressure that leads to papilledema (optic disc swelling), which, if untreated, can cause permanent optic nerve atrophy and severe visual impairment or blindness in about 10% of patients. It primarily affects young, obese females, with symptoms including headaches, pulsatile tinnitus, and transient vision loss. Early detection, weight loss, and medication (e.g., acetazolamide) are crucial to prevent irreversible optic nerve damage.

IIH and optic chiasm narrowing:
Idiopathic Intracranial Hypertension (IIH) is characterized by elevated cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) pressure, with a strong, well-documented association with transverse sinus stenosis (narrowing of the brain's venous drainage channels). This narrowing is frequently found in 30% to 90% of IIH patients and is believed to contribute to, or be a consequence of, the elevated pressure. While often a secondary effect, this stenosis is thought to act as a "disease amplifier," playing a major role in the pathophysiology and potential treatment (e.g., via stenting) of the condition.

OMG was I having a lot of difficulty with my anxiety, tinnitus , and depression earlier. It was awful sauce; one of the worst remixes. The beeping was intense and I was starting to cry when I accidentally hit my music app and within moments my thoughts shifted; thank goodness. I was mentally transported into my own private concert. It was like listening to Kendrick Lamar album for the first time and escaping reality. Tinnitus ; you will not win. Music is a whole vibe. Have a delightful Friday and please don’t stop the music.

I feel isolated.I am 22 years old and I dont know how to get past this because i feel like i cant relate to anyone. Ive been living with tinnitus since 13 and recently got stomach issues. (probably IBS since all tests were normal). I always struggled with self-image since I have pectus excavatum and my ears developed strangely. I know it might sound funny since there are much worse things happening but all of the things combined got me feeling really anxious.

I wanted to throw this out, trying to find someone who is struggling with similar if not same issues.

Hi, my name is Linda. I'm here because I have been in the process of getting several diagnosis, and awaiting others to get started, and searching for clues about symptoms I'm experiencing with no answers. My feelings can be best described as being on an deserted island with no compass, no resources to help me survive, wondering if I will ever find my way back home.#MightyTogether #RheumatoidArthritis #Lupus #myopathyoverlapsyndrome #Osteoarthritis #SupraventricularTachycardia #Dyslexia #SleepApnea #Asthma #heartmurmur #Hyperacusis #Tinnitus #Costochondritis #ChronicPain #GERD #Chronicbronchitis #IBS #OpticNeuritis #anemic

Hello everyone, I joined in 2017, but never joined any groups. I’m 52 years old & have delt with chronic pain for 25 years. I have hEDS, RA, deafness, tinnitus, MCAS. I’ve had so many surgeries that I’ve forgotten some! 😂 I just wanted to find a group who understands instead of being given advice on what I need to do. Believe me in 25 years, I have tried it all.
