      The good news is that there is something wrong with your ear that has been identified and you have T, so there is a chance that fixing what's wrong with your ear has a positive impact on your T, either right after surgery, or in the longer run.
      Good luck!

      Thanks Greg, I'm trying to hopeful like you were. It's hard though. I don't want to go in there with high hopes then come out with it the same or worse. I totally understand what your saying though. I'm not gonna lie, I'm scared shitless.

      It's what my ent said that needs to be done, if I don't I'll have to keep going in and having it microsuctioned to be cleaned. They did that first time I went, it was horrible. This way I won't have to keep going back and having them do that. And I have conductive hearing loss, he said there's a 50/50 chance that he can restore some of my hearing in the first surgery. If not I would have to have another one. But I don't think I'd do another one. I would just get a hearing aid. I'm just scared shitless it's gonna make my T worse. That would be very hard to swallow being in hear it over everything already.

      The best thing you can do for now is to stop thinking about a worsening.

      Easy to say but it's important that you focus on the positive outcomes ;)

      I see that your T is very new for you, from December 2016.

      How is it now ? Do you hear it all the time or only in quiet places ?
