I'm sorry to hear about the challenges you're facing with your symptoms. To better understand your condition and guide appropriate management, a thorough evaluation is essential. Here’s a suggested approach:
Investigations:
MRI of the Cervical Spine and brain to rule out degenerative and pathologies
Audiometric Testing:
Vestibular Assessment:
If imbalance is significant, a vestibular evaluation can help assess inner ear function.
Blood Tests:
Basic blood work to check for any inflammatory markers or metabolic issues that could be contributing to your symptoms.
Management:
Medications:
Pain Management: Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) may help relieve neck pain.
Antidepressants or Anticonvulsants: Sometimes prescribed for tinnitus management.
Physical Therapy:
A physical therapist can develop a tailored program to improve neck mobility and strengthen muscles, which may alleviate stiffness and balance issues.
Tinnitus Management:
Consider cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) or sound therapy to help manage the perception of tinnitus.
I recommend scheduling these investigations as soon as possible to get a clearer picture of what might be going on.
Once we have more information, we can develop a comprehensive treatment plan tailored to your specific needs.
Please keep me updated on your progress, and don’t hesitate to reach out if you have further questions or concerns.
