    Still bad? Not the slightest improvement? Can you sleep at least? What caused this? I'm in a bad state again. Thinking of you <3

    I found the acoustic reflex test very loud.

    Yup, and seems to be getting worse :( I can sleep but last night was the first time I found it difficult. No cause whatsoever - I just woke up and it was there! I'm sorry you're in a bad state again.. what happened? How are you coping with it? Sending you my love xx

    Hey @Charburchar. Yeah, most of it's been covered. Probably avoid the Tympanometry, and of course if they offer syringing or micro-suction: that's a no.

    Obviously MRIs are noisy, but they're not going to offer you an MRI on your first consultation, they'd need to book you in for that (and it's usually quite a long wait on the NHS).

    Sorry to hear you've suddenly hit a rough patch. Just sit tight and it will likely resolve itself.

    Been there done that.

    Never had an acoustic reflex test, but have read that it can worsen tinnitus. Hope things improve for you.
