Thank you Steve!

Fantastic explanation. Thank you!

Great information thank you so much for your feed back on vestibular system.

Thank you Steve.❤😀

Excellent video Thank you

I had labyrinthitis vertigo and this video explained so well the weird symptoms I experienced. The nausea at the start, the two weeks ir so of spinning, inability to track objects, difficulty telling the difference between forward and backward movement. The vestibular ocular reflex defect made me feel like my reality was on a half second delay. It took about 5 or 6 weeks for all the symptoms to completely go away, and even then I'd have trouble balancing, walking across a room in the dark. It's an very odd sensory experience because it's a system that works so seamlessly most of the time that you forget it exists. Vertigo was a much stranger experience and more reality altering than when I scatched my cornea and couldn't see for a week, or had a plugged ear from an infection. There's no great work-around when the vestibular sensory system is messed up, if you know what I mean.

I'm 5 weeks into this. That delayed VOR is something I never imagined and hard to describe to anyone besides my physical therapist.

My history of neurological disorders is probably worse than most guys who've posted here. Suffered a serious car crash aged 6. Thereafter developed a brain tumour - as a result have had to live with epilepsy for 42 years. Had 2 major brain operations in 1987 & 1992, however despite all that still enjoyed an active & normal - did kick boxing for many years but Fast fwd to feb 2021, i took a punch to the jaw, which my neurologist of 20 years diagnosed as Pcs. The pcs felt worse than my epilepsy - symptoms were brain fog, concussion, headaches, ear ringing, noise sensitivity & lack of balance / disequilibrium. I was out of work for 4 months, and returned in July 2021. My symptoms were brain fog, confusion, headaches, disequilibrium / balance issues and ear ringing. When it first happened, i felt like a zombie & disconnected, as if i was in a trance - the dizziness, brain fog, confusion, ear ringing, sensitivity to noise was very debilitating. My vestibular & occular faculties were badly disrupted. I have good days & bad days but i feel the symptoms are gradually getting better. Just the waywardness & lack of co ordination can sometimes be frustrating. I've spent over £1,000 in private treatment, consulting an Ent surgeon, cervical chiropractic doctor & undergoing vestibular rehab, (which has only slightly helped) - i believe it comes down to willpower. Also i dont get depressed anymore. The more anxious, fatigued & emotional you feel, the worse the symptoms. Be optimistic & believe with conviction you'll get better. I used to be a desktop support & telecomms engineer but can no longer do that - instead i've been given confined to a desk based job. I know its really upsetting & demoralising but if i can survive 2 brain operations, whilst suffering from epilepsy for over 40 years and live with a brain tumour, then in comparison this is nothing. There certainly is hope. I wish you & all other concussion / post concussion sufferers speedy recoveries.

Sharon - Mine has me doing some too ! I have also been having my neck & spine gently adjusted by a chiropractor and that seems to be helping, also - I was so dizzy, bad migraines & tinnitus all summer - it’s such a relief to be getting back to normal - I’m not 100% for sure, but better !

best explanation of otoliths hands down

Is there anywhere in the US where the Electrovestibulography (EVestG) is being used. It measures vestibular response to horizontal pursuit and saccadic eye movements. Thanks!

I never knew that the ear system was so complicated. BTW, can the vestibular system be affected by cervical osteoarthritis at high levels?

We do know why motion sickness happens; it's a threat response from the brain, much like pain, due to the mismatch in sensory information

Any updates? And had you fallen at some point and lost consciousness/ hit your head? Has anyone in your family ever had any similar experiences and have you ever endured a stroke before?

Good 😊

how neurons are exites in our brain sir

I understand the complexity, but you should at least come up with a treatment of an infected balance nerve. Had that 2 weeks ago and it was both traumatic and scary and required hospitalization.

I’ve seen enough KZread videos of people trying to stay upright and composed on ice to know that the vestibular system doesn’t exist. 😊

BrainFacts.org, amazing explanation. This was mentioned 1400 years ago about Inner Ear and it's balance. Allah says:[Quran 18.11] Then We hit on their ears in the cave for a number of years.
