Default RE: your symptoms (dizziness and hearing your eyes)

It scares me because I worry about the worst possible scenarios, of course.
Ask your doctor about Minor's syndrome (or Superior canal dehiscence syndrome). This can cause you to be able to hear things inside your body (people have reported being able to hear their eyes) and can also cause sounds to cause the dizziness and tilting of the room that you describe. Basically the bone that separates the hearing center and the balance center in the ear is not there. Hope this helps!
