Age related hearing loss isn't going to get better until there's a treatment for it. T is more common in older people. And for sudden noise trauma, it seems the younger folks have a better chance of recovery in the short term.

I got mine from an infection at 31. My FIL has age related hearing loss from noise exposure at his job. He wears HAs. He had loud tinnitus and after 1 year with HAs he no longer has it. He can go 2 weeks at a time without his hearing aids and it doesn’t really come back… maybe a small amount but nothing like it was.. then he puts them back in again and it goes away. He goes to all types of loud places too

My stepfather has tinnitus and hearing loss from riding motorcycles and working on heavy machinery. His tinnitus goes completely away while wearing his hearing aids

One day everyone will

I will sooner rather than later

What is ME?

@JeffToob middle ears

Like WTF? Do you suggest psychiatric help, too when you break a leg?

Those are the furthest thing from cute lol

They are when you have my level of T severity.. they are a reprive… plus how they feel in my ear helps the chronic irritation I feel from my ears and current T

Had the cutest little fleeting T moment in R ear today. So thin, around 8K. Felt good in my ear and he was cute. Wished I had that over what I normally have.

Yes. You have hiss from hell? I have both, and the hiss is worse. Only recently I started suspecting ETD, which nobody has diagnosed me with.

@gameover pls do your research about ETD and get copies of your audiogram to compare. ETD often shows type C tymphs.. the pressure must be way in the negatives.

These ENTs are useless. Entirely Not Treating.

@MiaVIL Your best bet is to try and see a doctor who is willing to go over it with you.

@kingsfan I live in Canada where I cannot get a second opinion. I am going back to my doctor on Thurs after demanding an appt.

Thank you, back at you

@RunningMan I doubt it. My CT scan shows “middle ear disease”. I have no idea what to do… I get screaching. I thought I was healing.

You have a way to kill this shit. Look for better doctor now!!!

@gameover I’m trying but I don’t what is wrong with me. Hopefully I get some answers within the next 2 weeks. How do I even know that ME disease causes this much T?

@Nick47

Your dr can read it surely?

My ENT won’t see me anymore

@SumGuy I don’t have ringing. My problem is sharp hissing/ticks and crackles

Everything is mostly silent? That's incredibly good news!

@Juliane its not gone. I have painful hissing/crackles/ticks

That doesn't sound good. Could be an infection or ruptured eardrum. I would go to urgent care or ER.

I have ear tubes in and nobody cares or will do anything to help me.

Nerve pain in neck not never

Bullshit. Nobody recovers thanks to TRT. Recovered despite it.

@gameover I believe that now.

is it easier to mask now?

@SumGuy no not at all. It cuts through everything

@JeffToob You are absolutely right! Such an important point

Don't listen to that tool. EVER. You have a middle ear issue. I bet it is SOLVABLE. You will get out of this.

@gameover I don’t know if these issues could be causing the T severity. Even then they told me the treatment was tubes which I have had in since September… nothing has changed.

i do wear generators and they provide relief but will not result in recovery for me.

No, he recovered DESPITE wearing generators.

Yes it does. Agree

Stop.

Stop what?

Sry. I guess I shouldn't read into your post. I wish you well.

@Varda there’s no tears in heaven

@MiaVIL maybe there's still tinnitus in Heaven but everyone has learned to habituate

@Varda you’re thinking of hell

@Juliane I’m jealous of their health and happiness.

:-(

Honest
