Tinnitus - do you have ringing in the ears?

Anarchy. Anarchy, Anarchy. I will leave your ad hominem arguments aside. I have reread my post and cannot find anything factually wrong with it. The most intelligent suggestion certainly is to see a specialist. Now if in your neck of the woods the chiropractor specializes in ear problems, so be it. I kind of thought you would lean towards chiropractors and alternative medicine. Unlike you, I never said you were stupid, only wrong. While someone's belief in the outer limits of things audio can only put a hole in one’s wallet, not seeking the advice of a specialist for a health problem is another story altogether. If I firmly believed that something could be done to restore some very small and fragile part of the human anatomy located inside a bony structure do you think that even I, who is termed stupid because of some disagreements over audio and autos, would not seek treatment? One of my clients told me that someone he knows went to France for treatment of his tinnitus. I have yet to research that lead, but should I find anything of value I will surely mention it to all concerned. If your tinnitus has been "cured" by the chiropractor, great. The problem is that tinnitus often comes and goes and that there is a distinct possibility that, if indeed you started feeling better at the same time as you got chiropractic treatment, it could merely be a coincidence. You see a sample of one, taken without any controls, does not provide a very strong case. You can see that whether it is audio or cars, our two very distinct positions do not mesh very well. Like I said, when a question is one related to the health of a person, the debate ceases to be merely idle banter. Personal freedom means you can seek whatever treatment you want. On the other hand, that does not mean that people making money from a type of treatment should not be scrutinized and that their "practices", "medication" or "treatments" are simply a function of the individual right of a person to get whatever treatment he/she wants or the sacrosanct right of people to make a buck.

Something you may want to look into!

I had it in my right ear- turns out it was likely caused by grinding my teeth in my sleep- which i only do when lying on my back. I try my best to only sleep on my side and amazingly the ringing has gone away. I still get a slight fullness in my ear like when taking off in an airplane. Doctor says i am getting a fluid build up in my right ear- put me on Allegra allergy medicine to take "as needed". That to has helped.

good luck with yours!

Well, well, Pbb doesn't blame this malady on G.W. Bush and the USA? It's nice to know we aren't responsible for every ill effect that plagues the planet.

Lugnut, Lugnut, Lugnut, now you are the one turning this into some sort of political issue. Why would I blame tinnitus on GWB or the USA? From my northerly vantage point, am I right to assume that GWB is not the USA and that the USA is not GWB? Good day.

Now, now, Pbb. Nobody can blame me for poking you in the ribs. Just a little payback for your previous efforts. It WAS meant as a joke.
