Bimmerboy

I'm sitting right next you! It's a bummer

You just have to work around it as best as you can

wish I knew. I just remind myself that life is essentially meaningless. It doesn't make me feel better, but it numbs the pain a little

I have noticed a sorta face nasal headache from cologne

I think it maybe due to allergies that then cause ETD which in turn increases my T. Never the less going to stop wearing cologne for a while

Maybe sensitive to a specific ingredient?; synthetic or natural? (Many commercialized deodorants are nauseatingly strong, add this w/ detergents, shampoos, soaps, etc. left with no individuality of your own). Like noise pollution, there's VOCs pollution.

Wow! Amazing!

You have a very loving family. Cherish them!

It's nice they understand, but it's like I feel like a burden. I feel they plan around me I feel super guilty. The amount of birthday parties not celebrated or just spent doing nothing makes me feel shit. It's why I don't even care anymore my ex left me because it's difficult, I feel family are bound by blood so I don't know.

@makeyourownluck whats it’s like doing lengths in a T-shirt? Can you front crawl okay - presuming you front crawl? I’ve never thought to wear a t-shirt. I mean I wouldn’t start now because I never have. But, it’s a good idea for those who aren’t as brazen as others.

At this rate I'd have to swim like a dog keeping my ears out of the water out of fear of swimmers ear. I wear silicone ear plugs in shower not because of noise but because of water getting ears. And they do a poor job so too paranoid ill end up with swimmers ear, because that shit was incredibly bad to deal with

@Steph1710, yeah front crawl mostly. I’ve always worn a T-shirt so it just feels normal to me. Occasionally I’ll forget an extra T-shirt and I feel like an Olympic athlete lol, you definitely go faster. Suppose it’s just a habit/comfort thing.

Nope.

Nah. Go for your life.

Anyway, haven't seen you around in a while. How you been doing (apart from the virus)?

Yup safe but I suggest mix the day with salt water nose spray when you can.
Mild on the nose at least. Don’t blow or cough to much:P

I've been good guys, I've been focusing on getting better and not thinking about my ears. But itz like as soon a si got covid again I straight away thought oh no my ears. And been on roller past ever since. This morning I'm suffering from covid on top of that I'm getting electric spark type feeling in my ears.tryna not panic but really don't want to spend months out again with this problem.

@Steph1710 how are you nowadays, how are your ears feeling any better ?

Hey @Bimmerboy! Glad you’re feeling better. :) I am doing okay. Mostly days are good. I still have the odd day where my T is more annoying, and I have more H days now - which I never had before, but I just carry on as normal.

Yeah I'm getting the same like almost a frostbite sensation. I describe it as burning but spiking is better description. The spine is another thing I'll take a look at. I'm stopping supplements as of now.
Did your symptoms pass ?

Btw Thanks for the advice, means alot bro

I've been through that, thought it was diabetes. It was probably a pinched nerve in my neck from a stiff bed and/or supplements. Get a nerve test and a diabetes test first, then try making lifestyle changes.

@GlennS so did yours go ? I've done me tests waiting on results. Also what was your symptoms if you don't mind me asking. Was it tingling/burning?

I have the same. How is yours doing?

<3

I know that feeling with loud cars popping out of nowhere. I normally take curcumin (actually the more expensive theracurmin), NAC & Nicotinamide riboside. It's maybe way too much, but it really takes the edge of for me anxiety-wise

If you're referring to that car, I think the only thing you need to take is a break. Try to relax ;)

Thanks guys yall helped me deal better with it. Only came on for this question. Thanks guys.

Are you sure that's a "trauma"?

My friends car was very deceiving it was quiet until he pulled out. Yes it was no longer than 10 seconds. Maybe anxiety.

Take it easy @Bimmerboy

Have a break. It might do you some good. X

I know the feeling.

Might be the best thing that has ever happened to you...

Sounds strange, I know, but we can't know what the universe has in store for us.

Maybe you've been broken to be rebuilt a far stronger and more resilient being than the average person.

You never know...

@buttercake my gp is an idiot, instantly says ask the ent as your under their care. And shrugs me off. Ent say talk to go about this as it sounds like nerve pain. Going to have a go again tomorrow to see what I can get.

@Steph1710 see what your doing, my friend has H and he says he does the same thing. Lives in denial because there's so little to support the condition he just convinces himself its all in his head and copes that way. I mean he copes well, if only I could do the same.

@Bimmerboy maybe you might do a bit of research. Print few papers and take them with you when you ask for medications. Show the evidences. https://hyperacusisresearch.org/an-md-summary-of-the-2016-aro-hyperacusis-symposium/

probably AFK, tbh...
