Hello everyone!! So I am about to leave to go back to Texas from the busy city! And while it was hard for me sometimes to enjoy myself ( fear of noise) I still had a great time!

I managed after the first day to only wear my plugs when it was super loud! I had drinks ( can we say expensive) with no spike, maybe just a headache! Went to a Broadway show! Plugs in! And went on tours to the Empire State Building!

The biggest thing was did I get proposed to? The answer is... YES!!! I'm so happy right now!! I didn't even think about my T!!! He did it in Central Park! This just shows me I can still have a life outside of T! I will just take caution but it will not ruin me!!!

I hope everyone has a good week! Peace to all. :D

You look so happy!

Congratulations! :) :)

Thank you for sharing this positive news, what a fantastic start to this day!
 
What awesome news!! Congrats @Jamie m , that's so exciting! Very happy for you!

In addition to that, I think this post is important simply because it shows new T sufferers that T does not have to be the end of enjoying life. Your photos are excellent, glad you had a great trip and congrats again!
 
Thank you guys! I'm so happy and it's true @SteveSkis92! I have my moments but this tops and takes over all the bad stuff in the last two months! I'll be too busy planning the wedding ... Showing the real side of me haha jk
 
Congrats!!! You guys look so happy together!!
Really great picture of you in Central Park! Glad you enjoyed NYC, I have always loved that city!!
 
Jamie, not trying to hijack your thread (especially with your good news!), but how did the T react overall in NYC? I never had a T problem living there for 12 years - ever; even in the most quiet, still places. Ears never bothered me with the traffic, sirens, subways, general noise... I moved about a month ago, and just a couple of weeks ago, the T started happening.
 
Thank you everyone!!

@Scarlet my ears have been fine today. I wore ear plugs walking in Times Square, Hard Rock Cafe ( music was toooo loud) and church. But overall fine, I think I didn't need to wear the ear plugs as much as I did but I was just nervous. The only night that was bad was after I had a huge drink and I had a headache but it wasn't the ringing.

soooo
no spikes despite alcohol? :woot::woot::woot:
 
@Mario martz nope just a massive headache!!!

@LadyDi well he was so cute, he knows I'm obsessed with the show friends so while we were walking he was like hey I think the fountain from the friends intro is in Central Park and I was thinking to myself I don't think so! Haha anyways he took me there and for like 45 mins we talked ( I think he wa nervous ) and then he finally got the courage and he did it!! He had his best friend come up and capture photos! Made me care less about my T
 
Thank you everyone!! My T is the same after a fun busy weekend! The only bad thing was within the first 30 mins after getting off plane I had a huge 60 seconds spike that I could hear outside. Freaked me out but then it stopped! But I'm okay today! :D
