deterioration


I suppose the natural course of the disease is going to have it's way.    My tinnitus has been bad for a while. Last week, I started having some mild vertigo symptoms.  I got in to see Dr Stewart locally for a steroid injection but did not have the improvement in symptoms that I had with previous injections.   I can tell that my hearing is worse lately.  I'm playing with the adjustments on my HA more.  Might be time to go in to have them adjusted again.
Still have some very mild vertigo symptoms.  If I turn my head, sometimes it keeps turning for a second.  Never had it so bad that I had nausea or was incapacitated.  What is really annoying is the ringing.  the constant ringing.  I think if that went away, I would hear better.  It really is the volume of ringing that keeps me from hearing things under that volume.
Hearing test this week.  It's been almost a year since the last one.   Fearful of what it will show.
