What Causes Visual Snow, Ringing In Ears And Fasciculations All Over?

Hi, My name is Nathan and for about the past few months I ve been having visual snow along with the onset of ringing in my ears. Also fasciculations all over my body daily. I went to a neurologist and he just said that the fasciculations (after a series of balance and strength test to rule out als) are benign but recently they have increased very much so. Should i be concerned/what do you think?

Hello
It seems from the history that you are having visual snowing, ringing and fasciculations...
These symptoms are seen in hypoperfusion involving the carotid arteries or basilar insufficiency.
This requires evaluation by dopplar study and other vascular studies.
Hence I advice you to consult your doctor for examination and treatment accordingly.

Thank you
