Thank you!
It seemed like he walked in the room with the idea that I had SCDS. He reviewed my reports and asked a few questions. My VEMPs are abnormal and I think that means SCDS is a possibly. Although a few other things are possible, according to my research. I also indicated that I have trouble in loud places.

I still am awaiting my CT scan. I'm in Canada and the medical system is quite slow for non life-threatening health issues. The system needs reform, but that is another conversation.

The doctor who I saw is older and to be honest doesn't seem like he is in his prime any more.

If I don't have SCDS I am confident that there is something else going on with the peripheral vestibular system (possibly a nerve).

I am going to try to get in touch with my family doctor to see where things are...
