Hello Everyone
My husband is experiencing the same equilibrium problems, Doc gave him some drugs for Vertigo which did not help much. Another Doc recommended an antihistamine as he seems to keep a lot of fluid in his ears, helps... a little.No one has ever mentioned the carotid artery to us..we will be sure to ask at next visit. Thanks for the info.
On the MRI stories, I always ask for an "OPEN" MRI
these have columns at each corner so you are not completely enclosed. If that is not available I take a face cloth with me and pop it over my face before going in the tube..what I cannot see is not there!


Caregiver to husband Pete, Dx 4/03 SCC Base of Tongue Stage IV. Chemo /Rad no surgery. Treatment finished 8/03. Doing great!
