    I am not a great sleeper and even worse when my husband has tinnitus spikes, many of which he had last week :sleep::sleep::sleep:. I digress, when I need to 'find' a way to get to sleep I listen to the Deep Sleep app by http://www.withAndrewJohnson.com/ . It is fabulous. Yesterday he messaged...

    Teeth Clenching

    Mc Gee, from my personal knowledge, this can be a symptom of anxiety and probably as a direct result to what you are going through with your tinnitus etc..at the moment. My dentist suggested that I place my tongue between my front teeth when I am aware that I am doing it. It helps to relax the...

    Hi from Ireland

    Mc Gee, you are very kind to reply. I am a 'fix it' type of person. I suppose, Like most people, I don't like to see loved ones upset and in pain. It was/is better for me to research on his behalf. That way the negativity associated with the condition can be filtered to a sensible level. My...

He then sent hubbie for a detailed hearing test which confirmed hearing difficulties at low tones (...

    Hi from Ireland

    MRI results came back clear this afternoon which in itself is a relief. Tomorrow we have an appointment to see an audiologist. Has anyone here ever been prescribed Betnasol steroid for the nose?

    Hi from Ireland

    Good Evening Thank you so much for taking the time to welcome me on board! Yes, both myself and my husband have decided that it might be better for him if I do the research because he started to stumble across 'scary' information courtesy of Google and really he does not need the stress. I...
