Hi. I’m not even sure if I feel confident asking questions because this is so new to me but: last year after years of tinnitus, vestibular migraines, intense vertigo (all blamed on ptsd wtf?)
I was diagnosed with a reverse cookie bite in both ears the graphs basically looked identical.
I got hearing aids. They made it better in some ways and much worse in others. Starks, my uncle is an audiologist he swore by them. I stopped wearing them because my migraines came back. My con workers were annoyed by me not having them on the right setting or just not working.
Maybe I’m just not educated enough or used to this. I’m a single mother. 2 beautiful Teenagers. 43, a classically trained singer and music teacher. Since being diagnosed a year ago, my hearing loss had become worse. Much worse. It is affecting my life in every way. I’m concerned that accepting a job as a music teacher for middle school this fall might not be ok. I’m concerned that my tinnitus is back. My relationship has suffered, family life…I’ll be ok it’s not the end of the world. I’ll be ok…
I was told it is only going to get worse.
Any advice? Any advice would help.
