I can't sleep on right side no independence can't have alot happen around me noise makes me lose equilibrium I don't drive or work or go on walks.. im losing this battle. I found your video. Thanks for sharing.
Sure, here is the translation: --- Hello John, I am Mustafa. I live in Germany. I have found out that I have the same illness as you. I have been suffering from this illness for three years. I wanted to ask how you are doing now and if you still have the same symptoms and problems as before the surgery. Are you feeling better now? I hope you are doing better. I am asking because I will also be having surgery soon. It was not easy to find a doctor who performs this surgery frequently. I would be very happy if you could write back to me. Thank you very much.
I was going to say in a previous video that I hope you can get to a place where you find the morbid humor in hearing your eyes and it looks like you already made it! 👍
THX for sharing your experiences and thoughts! What an odyssey.. wow. I am still struggeling with symptoms after my fourth surgery from July. I'm waiting for my surgery 5 and 6 (in a row) in october. That is so complicated with this nasty scds. My though: canal plugging to switch off the dizziness and then a "thick" 3D printed prosthesis on top of the temporal bone to get rid of the f..g noizzzy autophony. This will be sooo helpful, I am pretty sure, but there is no experience (esp in germany) with this stuff. But I am glad that your autophony does not influencing vest.sys. anymore! Jordan, take care! brave girl :)
