      Hi all. I've had T for several years due to an ear infection, but it used to be mild. Recently an NSAID I took for a back injury made it much worse, and and now I've developed H, as well. This is definitely a life changing event. Fortunately I have the support of my awesome family. I'm just starting my journey toward coping with this, and it's good to have the support of this group, as well.

      Thanks for the warm welcomes! To answer the question, the NSAID I took was Voltaren, on top of Tramadol, a pain killer, so the Voltaren definitely put me over the top, at least. Shortly after I took it, the symptoms got worse.
