Hi pcslife, thanks for your reply.

I will try what you said the xanax or other benzo. I have ativan but someone suggested clenazopam as it's less addictive. Either way I only plan to take it when symptoms are really bad. Mostly it's the chronic dizziness (feeling of body moving to the right and the sometime the floor moving up) that really impacts me. Although i am doing vestibular rehab, I still want to get to the bottom of it. I'm reading a book on dizziness and vertigo and the specialist in the book says that anyone who goes in his office is automatically sent for a hearing test as Step 1. Nobody has told me to do this but it makes a lot of sense since I have hyperacusis and I'm dizzy all the time. Of course these are also main symtpoms of PCS but who know maybe I did some damage to the inner ear when I fell.

Vb,

Your neurofeedback is true volitional neurofeedback. You have control of the changes in waveforms. This is the least risky form of neurotherapy.

Getting tested at the hearing center sounds good. Most hearing centers also have expertise with balance issue.

I hoped you find a solution so you can stop taking the benzo.

My best to you.

Hi Mark, I called and the tech wasn't sure what I mean by those terms you mentioned. She said I will be telling her what on the screen etc... But I read one of your previous posts from 2010 explaining the difference.

I'm glad you did because I'm going to try and find out if it's true neurofeedback or just for "relaxation".
