Yes please let us know - I like Mark have been dealing with this since injury 3+yrs ago. Useless Neuro wouldnt order any test and therefore INS got away with not paying - now that i dont have very good ins or much money - new neuro want me to do vestibular trng after having a very expensive test (VNG) out of pocket they found issues with area between inner ear equlibrium and brain. problem is I can no longer afford to under go more test and therapy just because, unless I know I will actually be helped. My problem is balance, cant keep balance at all in dark or low light - not so much dizziness but I do get a light headedness when this happens in day light. ( I bang into door frames, loose footing when turning etc When I was going to PT they would have me try to balance on one leg with eyes open and closed but often they were with other patients and a few times I missed catching the handle bar and no one was near to catch me from falling and it was a joke. so once again the system and medical fails those of us in these situations. I feel extreme anger over this and this is making everything worse for me
