Dr. Nagler: As you are a retired MD who specializes in Tinnitus, I imagine you are well informed on a variety of middle/inner ear dysfunctions or/ understand results from hearing/vestibular tests, which would greatly help members on this forum. There are many medical terms or jargon that are not completely reliable on the internet as well as confusing/ambiguous to the average reader who do not have a PhD in the medical field, specifically ENT. Are you able to assist patients with this, such as providing explanation from vestibular tests outcomes? For instance, in my case, a caloric test resulted in "bilateral canal paresis in the semicircular canals"? It would be very helpful to read your input in how this affects other inner-ear structures and/or what further tests suggested for a work-up to a possible resolution to help our hearing, tinnitus etc.
