Hopefully Someone Can Relate to Me

I'm 34 yrs old have have horrible tinnitus in my right ear only for almost 2 years now... I've been everywhere and seen everyone it seems and still not any better.

A hearing aid works ok, but not perfect. Caused by an infection that was misdiagnosed by 3 different Dr's as Meniere's disease, blows my mind.

Ringing is constant and loud. Anybody have similar issues?

Hi @Spsu26cb. Welcome. If you have not, I would suggest that you read through the "Introduce Yourself" posts, I am certain you will find many in a similar position to yours. The cause may be different, but you will find many who have had tinnitus for a long time, and many with constant ringing.

If you have not found the follwogin posts, Iw oddly highly recommend reading them.

@Michael Leigh, who possesses both a wealth of knowledge on the subject, but has a way of explaining things in a very clear and readable way, has a great number of posts that you will find helpful, here are a few to get you started:

@billie48 wrote his success story demonstrating how positivity helped him habituate.

I would also recommend reading through the success stories, they will not help keep you hopeful, but may give ideas on how to help cope with tinnitus.

For other posts on being positive, search out posts by @Bobbie7, @glynis, and any others you find have a particularly positive attitude. Positivity helps.

I wish you the best, please keep us updated your progress,
