I started suffering from tinnitus 6 weeks ago and went to an ENT specialist and he said I had otosclerosis
he suggested to have hearing aid or stapedectomy
as a matter of fact I didn't care about reduction of my hearing but I was bothered by the whistling tinnitus in my ear
so I decided to have second opinion and went to a highly reputable center and met a professor in that business
he said the same thing
I had my stapedectomy 11 days ago, I am pain free but this tinnitus is unbearable
so I decided to take amitriptyline and it worked like magic
no tinnitus, problem it make you drowsy plus few other side effect
so I hope with time it will get better
