    I went to see Wicked with 3 kids. I wore my earplugs and just Sony headphones. I didn't wear the headphones for most of the movie until the end. It was fun, no issues with being too loud except for one or two scenes. I just put the headphones on.

    No, but I do eat a good diet and I wear earplugs outside the house. The only activities I stopped doing were movies, sporting events, concerts and music at church. The music is still loud and I wear earplugs. I may start wearing earmuffs on top of the earplugs at church.

    @Rich123 I got in when I started walking in regular shoes instead of tennis shoes. I focused on calf stretches, rolling my foot with a ball while watching tv, took Turmeric with curcumin and black pepper and did an anti-inflammatory diet. It was bad for a long time, but got much better. I'm...
