hi, I'm new here, I will post my story in another post, but I want to ask if anyone experience lightheadness, hard to explane the feeling, its more like my head is heavy or light. I can't tell if it is a cause of T or it is something else that causing it and causing tinnitus, the tinnitus came back to me month ago. and because I did hearing test and MRI and CT 6 years ago and all was OK, the doctors didnt send me to do the tests again, even my T 6 years ago didnt have that much of lighthead feelings.

the feeling of the lighthead is so anoying during the day, comes and go, but most of the time it is there, has anyone felt the same? is there a relief from this feeling?

Sorry for my bad English, it is my third language

Hi Raneen - and your English is fine, you’ve made yourself understood. We’re not doctors on this forum so it’s hard to judge whether this feeling you have is linked or not to T. Whatever it is, if you’re not feeling well then you can contact your doctors surgery. You’ve explained your problem here, so I’m sure you’ll be able to tell the doctors All the best!

Thank you for your comment, you are right, but I asked because I thought that what I feel is something common to people with tinnitus, and if it is not, there might be some that have experienced rhe same thing and they where able to know the underling cause

Hello Raneen ,I think that you might be describing a form of migraines . I get strange light heads , but I definitely have tinnitus and Meneries . My light heads make me go dizzy .

You need to visit your GP because we don’t know , we only know our own experiences , I wish you luck

I do have migraines, but this is something else, I dont know if the noise of my T, is the cause of it, because it is in the background (on my head). or something else, it is more like dizzy.. but not dizzy 😂, like my head moves from inside ... very hard to explane, Im going to go a second rownd visiting my doctors 🤷‍♀️🤦‍♀️

I have similar issues to you Raneen , I can’t seem to sort out my head and ears either. I must go back to the doctors as my dizzy/giddy spells are worse. My T isn’t good either but I’m coping better with the T than the dizziness and muzzy heads. Your not alone that’s for sure.
