I think my hearing is damaged.

Thanks all. Also I have taken depakote for 10 years. One of the side effects could be hearing loss. i do have ringing/hissing but I can ignore it and doesnt bother me. Your right it does vibrate. i usually sleep on my back. Yes when Im sick it is much worse. Have mild case of the flu right now. I did have one serious case of vertigo 3 years ago. One week. Just got through listening with headphones and it is not there now. Yesterday it was bad. But it is always in my right ear. The ear that does not test as well on my hearing tests from work. Opinions welcome!!!!!

Dont listen to anything but your inner ear.Serious #$2,ive been a working guitarist...take a break,imho.

Eliminate any artificial sweeteners from your diet. Don't listen to music loudly for a few weeks. Don't clear you ears by holding nose and blowing pressure thru them. Protect your ears from cold weather. Catch up on sleep. See an ENT. Accept the fact that the meds may make the condition worse.

Thanks Reb. I have shunned away from artificial sweetners because they made me eat more. I have a nice system now But dang I can still remember hearing notes that I cant hear now. Wish I had a great pair of ears now with the nice sysytem I have!

Is it possible that you have ear wax build up?
