Ears and eyes

Hi everyone,
I’m wondering if anyone has had something similar to this... I feel like the wind is blowing in my ear and my eyes have been doing some funky stuff. Sometimes I have slight double vision, and sometimes I can see perfectly clear. I’m scared that it could be a brain tumor. I had an MRI in March that came back clear, but would it be too soon to ask for another one?

I’m exhausted. I’m sorry and I appreciate any advice.

Oh ic. The brain cannot change that quickly if it was clear in March I wouldn’t worry but I’m not a dr

If you had an MRI of the brain three months ago nothing can grow that quickly it is impossible it takes years years and years for things to grow like that I’m sure that’s why they’re putting it off if you hadn’t had the MRI double vision is an instant reason for an MRI but the fact that you have one in March I can see why they are finding other reasons also did you have contrast with your MRI because if you did you don’t wanna have that multiple times that Cantrust builds up in your blood over the years wait it out I have had hundreds and hundreds of symptoms and I’ve never learn my lesson to wait it out

Yes but they said it could be sinuses, or anxiety, or my ears, but I’m not convinced ☹
Is it double vision where you actually see two sets of what’s in front of you, or things look like you can’t get a clear focus of something because your eyes seem to be moving back and forth? The reason I ask is because that’s the way I was describing it and it turned out I had something called nystagmus. I’m including a link to tell you more about it.

I did it with and without the contrast. This is so scary ☹. I just hope that it’s sinuses again. Thank you for responding!

Thank you for this! It’s mostly when I’m looking at a screen, if I focus really hard I can see the shadow of the letters behind the words of that makes sense. And if I stare at something for too long it looks like it’s shaking. I feel like I sound like I’m losing my mind ☹

Don’t be scared it’s good you did it without contrast you don’t need it for what they were looking for. You’ll be fine try meditation

I would go see an eye doctor first. You may just need glasses or a new prescription if you currently wear glasses. If all checks out there, go see a neurologist. They can check you for nystagmus. I was able to correct mine with eye therapy. My neurologist said my eyes and ears were having trouble communicating together. He was able to correct that.

I have 20/20 vision myself and I get this- it's that darn anxiety brain fog. It used to send me into a panic because of the lovely hypersensitivity to every little "off feeling" I have (thanks for that, HA), but my doctor told me that it's all linked to anxiety which stopped me from panicking about it. Not that I suggest googling usually, but google the symptoms of anxiety- brain fog/blurred vision is on there along with a million other physical symptoms our brain can make us feel (again.. thanks HA..you can go away any time, now lol). Good luck

I hope that’s all this is!! I haven’t slept in 3 days worrying about what it could be ☹. Thank you!!
