ENG Testing?

[Gearbox123]

Hello everyone.  My E.N.T Doctor has ordered a  E.N.G Test for me. Does this test find out the % loss of the vestibular nerve due to the tumor?  I know that there are possible other components of the test. I had a test in 2012 where they blew warm air in my ears. Before the Doctor found my tumor they thought the crystals were out of ailment in my inner ear. After a day of vestibular  therapy my therapist said it was not the case. Any feed back is always helpful.  Thanks.

My ENT sent me to have it after I was diagnosed with the tumor which was after I was deaf on the AN side and had the lurches.

I had it done at Arizona State University's hearing department by a Professor and student observer. They looked over my history and couldn't understand why I was sent for the test since it was already known what my balance issues were caused by.

Well, I was already there and the student was cute and the VA was paying for it so I got tested. The tests confirmed what I already knew.

After reading your history I'm not sure why you are getting it done. Did your ENT articulate a reason for referring you for the test?
