thin superior semicircular canal superior wall?
Hi everyone, I had my first brain/inner auditory canal MRI the other day. It came back normal except for the following:
- white matter lesions consistent with migraine
- thin superior semicircular canal superior wall (no dehiscence)
I am not so concerned with the first thing but the second gives me pause. My neuro didn't address it in the comments of the MRI (also, I do have a follow up with her but she wasn't available until September).
I've gotten much better in my Dr. Googling since starting to treat my OCD but unfortunately I went down a rabbit hole with Superior Canal Dehiscence Syndrome (SCDS). I know it's rare and I don't actually have a dehiscence, but I'm wondering if having a thin superior semicircular canal superior wall can contribute to VM? Every time I have BPPV or any kind of vertigo, it's my right side that's affected, as in I feel like I'm being pulled that way or my spinning always starts to the right or I have a loose stone in that ear. My positional vertigo (not BPPV just being dizzy on that side) is almost always my right side; I can't usually sleep on it for long periods of time.
Is there anyone here who also has a thin superior semicircular canal superior wall? What has your doctor said about it? Has treating your VM helped your vestibular symptoms overall (i.e., the thin wall isn't really an issue)?
FWIW I don't have any of the symptoms like tinnitus (no more than the average person), hearing my own heartbeat/eyeballs moving/etc, or getting instant vertigo from loud noises/pressure changes. I do have sensitivity to loud noises but I think that's migraine-related.
