Tinnitus
« on: February 04, 2012, 06:54:41 PM »
Has anyone been listening to the Book of the Week?  "The Train in the Night: A Story of Music and Loss" by Nick Coleman.

Scary saga if ever there was. It's made me think that I ought to get my tinnitus checked  out; it seems to be a variant called pulsatile tinnitus which pulses with the heartbeat, at present a mild but persistent whooshing in both ears  noooo:

I now hear clearly everything, a mixed blessing frankly  Shrugs:

Apparently irrigation - thank you Nurse - is a thing of the past.  Vacuuming is the way forward  eeek:   A friend now tells me he has his ears vacuumed every six months. All manner of detritus is whisked, or perhaps Dysoned away leaving the aural passages clear and free ...  rubschin:

Anyone had their ears sucked?
