For Professor David Baguley: I would like to know if there has been any conclusive research on the effects of intratympanic steroid injections on tinnitus and hyperaccusus in non-Meniere’s-related cases. I’m not talking about a single injection, but rather a series of injections over time...

Gin, I hope you get to the bottom of everything, soon! I know how stressful it is to wait... Take good care, J

Thanks so much, LadyDi! Most of the articles I've read online that address the challenging and peculiar nature of fitting hearing aids to Meniere's patients, have been written by one guy...and even he acknowledges that there's very little out there, in recent years. The odds of him being able...

Hi Glynis....It sounds like our Meniere's symptoms are very much alike. I get so confused, not being able to tell where sounds are coming from. And yes...beyond a simple exchange, concentrating and following the thread of a conversation is very difficult!!! Even grocery shopping is...

RE: Habituation....I feel that I could live with T along with all of my other weird head sensations, if it didn't interfere so much with my hearing. It's so difficult not to "check on it" when it's the very thing I'm trying to "hear around", so much of the time. I have Meniere's related...

Thank you for being so kind and understanding! You are SO right about having to keep a sense of humor about things!! There are some days when I'm so muddled and confused from weird sensory input/output, misunderstanding what's being said, (and with my new eyesight problems, what's being...

I'm sorry....You're right...it mustn't seem so great. I guess I was thinking of how comparitively good I felt, 9 ½ years ago!! In no way am I minimizing the impact of MD on your life. It's been so life changing for me....and not in a good way. Take good care. I hope yours is a slowly...

I would love to be 50 again!!! Lol!

Gin, No...sadly the shots have not improved my T....It hasn't affected it either way. My tinnitus fluctuates wildly throughout the day, and drives me insane. I'm trying different anti-tinnitus programs in my hearing aids, but nothing has helped so far. When it gets intense, it gets intense...

@glynis Yesterday, I was about to answer this note...I got up from the table to grab some water, and that was it: The floor tilted, and it all started going around. Thank God I had my emergency meds nearby...I just grabbed them, chewed them up quick, and crawled on my hands and knees to the...

I had my monthly intratympanic dexamethazone injection for Meniere's related vertigo, yesterday. I can honestly say it's helping....It's been very slow and gradual...but it's helping. I was given the option of intratympanic Gentamycin, but I woudn't even consider it, unless the steroids turn...

My brother in law has bilateral hearing aids...and he is HOT. The women swoon all over him. It's' not that he's movie star material...it's that he's such a damned great guy! Women adore this man! I used to see a young guy at my gym (before Meniere's killed my workouts) who wore 2 hearing...

Real guns! Air guns! Grease guns! I remember when I first experienced the intermittent high pitched "singing" in both ears, (at 56) I thought: "Well, I earned this". When I was a kid, I worked with my father at his service station. I changed tires on the old fashioned (very loud) tire...

Glynis, Thanks so much for pointing me in the direction of this thread. I've been muddling my way through Meniere's since July 2015 and have not found any active support groups in my area. As I read through the threads on both tinnitus and Meniere's, I can relate to so many of the posts! The...

Thanks so much, Glynis! I didn't see that there was a Meniere's thread, as well! I'll check it out. Thanks again.

Hello everyone! I was so surprised to find this forum...especially right now, when I'm really needing some feedback. I'm pretty sure my tinnitus began around 2013. It crept into my life so gradually: First, an occasional high pitched sound in my right ear. Then after about 6 months, it...
