- Acoustic trauma for repitition
I have been devastated by severe noxacusis and middle ear myoclonus (and also tinnitus, though it affects me less) since 2010. These conditions have completely disrupted my life.
Over the years, the noxacusis has improved somewhat, but not enough to allow me to live a normal life outside my home. I always have to wear earplugs and sometimes use Bose headphones for additional protection.
I need a second surgery for middle ear myoclonus, this time on my other ear (the one affected by hyperacusis.)
I'm actively looking for opportunities to improve my quality of life.
