Problem
4.1
You
refer the patient to a neuro-otologist who conducts vestibular
testing, including electronystagmography, rotary chair testing,
an audiogram, and brainstem auditory evoked potential (BAER) testing.
All results are normal with the neuro-otologist concluding that
there is no objective evidence of a vestibulopathy. Six months
after completing chemotherapy, the patient reports residual vertigo
but says her symptoms are no longer as bothersome. She completes
her symptom rating scale as shown in Figure 4.1 below.
