Overwhelmed

I'm Lisa, I'm 50 and I have had very mild T starting a few years ago. Easily ignored. However, recently after having had some sinus drainage and fluid in my ears doc put me on a few days of ibuprofen and Sudafed. A few days later I started hearing a high pitched wine in my right ear. It freaked me out, so back to the doctor, got a round of steroids and antibiotics. No real explanation, maybe a eustacian tube being infected. It should fix itself. It didn't, so I went to an ear doctor, not an ENT like I thought he was. This a large group of doctors, all specialize in something ear related. Hearing test revealed slight hearing loss of high pitch sound...confusing cause I certainly can hear this high pitched sound in my ear. Anyway I'm confused and scared and have questions that have mixed answers. What's right, what's b.s? The internet is full of nut jobs who claim to be able to cure you. Thankfully I'm not that gullible. I do have an appointment with a real ENT at the end of the month. I have a lot of questions. I'm thankful to have found this forum cause having even one person tell you I know what your going through makes you feel a little less alone.

 

Sorry to hear that lulubug, lots of information on this forum, read up when you can.
Hope you feel better soon. Xox

 

Thank you! I'm optimistic that I will find the support I need. Like everyone here I'm looking for a miracle. But reality is I'm likely to find some coping skills first.

 

you came to the right place, when i first got my T i came here and i found lots of help and comments that made me feel like everything was going to be ok..... and of course i know God is going to heal,..... hope you find what you need here... aloha.........

 

Thank you!

 

Lulu, you sound like you know what to look out for on the web regarding T cures. Most are snake oil. Stick around here and you will find many, many people, have been or are in the same situation now....

We are all in this together....
