Thank you :huganimation:

I apologize if I have posted in the wrong section. I have had the most miserable time of my life and still stuck in hell. Over and above my ear issues, after a thousand blood tests and feeling dead I eventually figured out on my own that a benzodiazepine was the cause for my overall health...

:( Any advice

Good day, Hope you are all well. Has anybody had the above surgery? I'm currently recovering from adrenal insufficiency however my right ear refuses to clear up. -Aural fullness -Extremely intrusive tinnitus -Severe hearing loss -The little hearing that I have is distorted I've done the...

Hi, Getting there slowly. This whole grommet, medication etc... has brought me to a point of post surgery depression. Tinnitus is still intrusive, however I do have a better day or two. Will update in more detail shortly. Regards, Virek

Update: Hope these updates dont become too cumbersome, I find that a lot of people quickly post their problems and almost never post the solution. That is frustrating. Lets start: 1. Tinnitus - still has its highs and lows, as mentioned it has become bilateral since the surgery. I cannot...

Hi, I am sorry for starting a new thread. Just a little tired and hoping to get some other views on my current symptoms. 1. I asked my ENT whether my hearing loss was sensorineural or conductive and he didnt even do any tests besides a hearing test and concluded that my high frequency...

If you are going to think about the future, you need to to think about it in a positive manner as difficult as it may be. How does one measure the severity of Tinnitus? Maybe by the impact we allow it to have on our lives? I dont know... When I went to my audioloigist she struggled to mask my T...

Update: Really regret doing the grommet, anyway I cant continue living with that feeling of regret. Got even more sick after "Option 1" above and I was advised to complete "Option 2" without half the dose of betanoid. Went through a terrible spell of weakness, trembling, stress and anxiety...

Update: MRi is clear, brain / cochlear / facial / vestibular nervers are intact. A little irritated that the MRi did not include the ossicles and middle ear. Looking at getting that done soon. In the meantime based on my symptoms my GP ordered the following: Option 1 - 3 days intravenous...

Update: I have to come to realise that almost NOBODY understands T, all we know is that its a symptom. And I am talking about chronic T. Nonetheless, I got my MRi done yesterday, awaiting results. The hole in my right ear from the grommet has healed but a few days ago I got the flu :( my T has...

Update: Got a third opinion (ENT) and he says I should never have had the grommet done for ETD especially since I have T. Apparently I should have tried ET dialation as a first option. Nonethless I am patiently waiting for the hole to heal completely, its now 6 weeks. My T is so erratic...

Thank you, I am trying to remain positive. Its difficult. I am a data/business analyst by proffesion and a motor mechanic by passion. Last two months I have done nothing but focus on this ear. The doc prescribed mood stabilising meds, Urbanol and Tofrinil... It stabilised my mood, down low...

Hi Sam, No did not rupture my ear drum. To be honest I never ever really experienced pain. The only incision ever made was the grommet. Thanks, V

Thank you Glynis :)
