Suggest Treatment For Nystagmus

I have 26 yr hx SLE, Sjogren s (current active flare-have lost all teeth except for 6 bottom front), Fibromyalgia (active flare), DDD L4-S1 (active flare), severe senile osteoporosis (active) including fractured right hip in 2006 from slip, IBS-D (active), Hashimoto s (actiuve), etc. Very weak. Sweating, chills, nausea, MOST CONCERNING is when I lay in my right side, I experience nystagmus, cannot read/focus. Standing is virtually impossible. *I have Master s Degree Audiology, which is why nystagmus is concerning to me. I am working with UTHealth San Antonio Dentistry school to facillitate full upper extractions, bottom extractions, except for 6 bottom front. Still waiting. It has been years waiting...including the fact I was denied for Social Security Disability. I have been unable to work since 2009. My rheumatologist (primary), is Dr. Pendleton Wickersham here in San Antonio.

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

Since you are working with audiology dear you know nystagmus can occur at extreme movement of the eye but the thing I am fonecermed about is did you get an ENT opinion to rule out any pathology involving the nerve.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
