She didn't know until I complained about mine, and wondered why I was so
bothered by it! She thought everyone had noises in their ears like she
did, so it never bothered her, and still doesn't. She has always had a
slight hearing defect too. Hearing problems run in the family. My niece
is nearly totally deaf and has tinnitus :(
> If she always had it, it would have been considered a normal sound.
Yes, true.
> How old was she when she told you?
Quite old - 17 or 18, I'd think.
> Have you ever been to a chiropractor with her?
No, and I can't take her now she's married LOL! I haven't been either,
though my brother has been to one with a bad back and swears by the
treatment.

My son has asthma, though not badly now he too is grown up :) I think
alternative medicine should be treated very seriously. That is all they
had years ago, and they worked??!
