Could I have a brain cyst or a cyst on my Eustachian Tube? My symptoms began in 2001 with repeated (what was labeled) Left ear Eustachian Tube infections. Over the next 7 years I experienced this diagnosis several times a year and after at least a month of pain it faded to a dull pain I could live with and went on with day to day life. 18 months ago I went overseas and experienced severe pain in my left ear on take off and landing...when I landed at my destination it felt as if something ruptured. I have had steady ringing and roaring in my left ear since this event and steady pain.
In the last 6 months I have had the following symptoms: Nausea, Dizziness/equilibriam issues, headaches/pressure from inside feels like it is pressing out on my left cheek, eye ,jaw and up on my brain, Memory loss, Fatigue , major hair loss, Difficulty sleeping, Increased sensitivity to touch or pressure anywhere on my body, Dry skin, Intolerance to cold, Ringing or roaring in left ear only, Vision blurring in left eye with pressure, Increased thirst, some light sensitivity, some reprieve from pressure pain upon occasional eruption feelings followed by a thick drainage in back lower left side of my throat, Swallowing issues with the increase of pressure and swollen feeling, Sleep for abnormal amounts of time after any exertion. Please tell me if you can help me....as my local MD labeled this TMJ and I spoke with my dentist who assured me this was not TMJ. I am in pain and unable to do daily tasks or to work. Thank you for your time.
