Update for anyone that might be remotely interested….
Been to see ENT consultant/audiologist – nothing in my ear, no fluid or wax etc. Hearing in right hear is way down on normal especially at high frequencies & tinnitus is worse than ever and driving me bonkers. Booked in for an MRI but that’s not expected to reveal anything.
Don’t really understand how I go from normal hearing (barring very mild tinnitus which was totally manageable) to almost overnight being partially deaf with tinnitus so loud I can hear it even with background noise at a decent volume.
Anyone got any tips for dealing with the tinnitus? I’ve been close to shoving a bloody screwdriver in there…..
