  Did u ask them to collect the fluid from ur ear since u were at a facility?....they would have been able to test it to see if it was CSF.

Good luck, I pray u get answers soon.....

  Have a Merry Christmas : )

Techs are not doctors. Let the doctor look at the images and let you know what is going on.

If the MRI is normal, I wonder if maybe you are having an inner ear problem? Or even severe migraines can cause the symptoms you are experiencing.

It is flustrating when you have test done and some one tell's you every thing look's o.k.  when you know differently.  I suggest you keep being persistant and you will find the answer's you need to find out.  You know your body and you know it's not normal to have fluid coming out of your ear's.  I have never experienced this and I'm not a dr.  but I know it's not normal.  Let's us know what your Dr. has to say about your test.  Wish you the best.

  looking back at it, the tech probablly said it to ease me.  when i fell i went to a ent at mass eye and ear  he said i fractured my ear drum  and needed surgery. when i went back to him he said "i never said that "  that i had otosclerosis.  my ear started leaking after the chairi surgery. ther surgeon gave me this huge vile and told me to let it leak in there. it doesn't work that way !!!  i found this doctor and like i said im prayin he is the answer. he measured the spinal flow with the mri ?  has anyone heard of this ?  the doctor called last nite and i missed his call, i have my phone glued to me now !!  lol  i will keep you informed
