Hello all, you can see my previous post on here for a more comprehensive story if you would like more background but I have a new problem related to my SSNHL.
I developed significant vestibular symptoms including feeling very laggy and off balance. I think some of what I am experiencing is dynamic vestibulo-ocular dysfunction where my eyes don’t track very well, especially when turning my head to the right (the side of my affected ear). But anything including swiveling in a chair, standing from sitting, checking my blind spot while driving, bending over, turning my head while walking, etc bring on this feeling of lagging/vertigo (but not true rotational vertigo).
Notably, this happened the day I got my hearing aid (HA) however I noticed feeling “hungover” before my appointment so I can’t say for certain that the HA caused the symptoms but the days following having my HA the symptoms progressed.
Timeline of events:
3/19/26: SSNHL
3/23/26: One short lived episode of true vertigo
3/23-4/14: About 1000 things happened related to PCP/ENT/Audiology/Hyperbarics
4/14/26: Feeling hungover for no reason and got HA
4/14-4/24: Progressively worsening, tried to go on a short hike and was stumbling, don’t feel great driving, etc.
Has anyone experienced these vestibular symptoms nearly a month after having SSNHL and/or symptoms after getting a HA?
I was just getting back to work and then this hit which is possibly even more impairing in the workplace than the tinnitus and hearing loss.
Thank you
EDIT: To clarify, I had no vestibular symptoms in between 3/23 and 4/14. This is new which seems odd to me.
