Medical Forum / Diseases and Disorders / Tinnitus / December 2006New to group
I was reading Fred's post down the list about learning to deal with it. I have a real loud ringing in my ears, I work in a noisy atmosphere for the past 35 years, (autobody repair). I have had it for about 8 years, but I have not let it bother me. I can tell my hearing is impaired by it, I really have to concentrate on a conversation at times. After reading here, there seems that there is not much hope in any relief..... Stress seems to adding to it, and my life for the past 10 years has been VERY Stressful. Thanks for any input...
