Newbie with Worsened Symptoms

[Rob D.]

Hi all. I've had T for several years due to an ear infection, but it used to be mild. Recently an NSAID I took for a back injury made it much worse, and and now I've developed H, as well. This is definitely a life changing event. Fortunately I have the support of my awesome family. I'm just starting my journey toward coping with this, and it's good to have the support of this group, as well.

Hey Rob welcome to the forum,I have T and severe H myself so I know how it feels believe me.What NSAID did you take and for how long?Was it definitely this that worsened your condition?

Thanks for the warm welcomes! To answer the question, the NSAID I took was Voltaren, on top of Tramadol, a pain killer, so the Voltaren definitely put me over the top, at least. Shortly after I took it, the symptoms got worse.
