Dr. Charlie — ENT Specialist With Tinnitus

Can you fly with hyperacusis and if yes what precautions do you take

 

I'd be surprised if you get an answer from Dr Charlie:
"Dr. Charlie was last seen: Oct 3, 2015"

 

Can you fly with hyperacusis if yes what precautions do you take?

 

It is moving to beyond theory now. There are others who have figured it out.

 

Oh it's wonderful to have a doctor on board!
Just sharing my journey...
From my previous (first) post:
"Ive had T Practically my whole life (I've only known 1 other person who had it) but I've never sought treatment or really even questioned it because every Dr always said there's nothing can be done....it didn't even occur to me there might be a forum- whole community of sufferers! "

In addition to that;
I've also had problems with ear aches/pain in colder (windy) months. If I don't wear a warm total coverage hat I get bad earaches (not infections).
I can wear headphones no problem.
But can't stand really noisy places.
Have to have white noise (usually a fan) to sleep and my thunderstorm app. Can't sleep w/o fan. (which makes camping difficult).
Since I also have MS my body/brain is in constant 'alert' mode.
Some of my meds intensify the ringing= frustrating.
More recently...
I get a lot of migraines.
I have a problem with Sinitis pain, which at times provoke my Migraines. I take Sudafed daily.
(Have nasal CTS Wednesday - Fingers crossed!)
And to top it all off I'm menopausal!
Yes, my life sucks because I feel like utter crap 80% of the time.

PS- when I lived in Taos the elevation seemed to keep the ringing less annoying.

 

Dr. Charlie is probably not active with the forum now. But there are other doctors in the Doctor's Corner where you can ask them questions.
