Just ruptured my eardrum this morning. Yay. Don't use q tips anywhere near the ear folks. Also take your dogs out before doing your morning ritual.
 
I hope you didn't ruptured a ear drum. Being deaf will bring you into a different world.
 
Wow I hate to hear that. I hope it heals up and your hearing comes back.
 
Thank god you will gain that much back.......
I lost 80% in both ears in Iraq due to an I.E.D explosion under my vehicle..
my ears ring to the point I have'nt slept much in years..
but Masker hearing aids work wonders..
 
That is great news, Prayers for a fast recovery and 100% return of your hearing

X2!

Sorry to hear this and thanks for your service. I have tinnitus too and drives me insane. I have to sleep with a small fan next to my bed.
 
ouch that sucks but better than the tinntius, or ringing in the ears just sucks
 
Glad you'll be getting most of your hearing back. I have lost the upper range of my hearing and I can definitely attest to the tinnitus. My ears have been ringing nonstop for over two years now. Man there are some days I just want to shove a pencil in my head.....

X's 2 yup been there with the pencil or ice pick. Sucks big time. Ringing for 20 plus years.

My luck would be that I would totally deaf and be able to hear the ringing so much clearer.....:banghead:
 
I talked to a doc about removing the ear drums, she said the ringing is in the brain, not actually the ears....maskers work and so does my mp3 pillow...
"a pillow that is a mesh speaker inside with an mp3 jack chord"
got it from a vet center 5 or 6 years ago...love it.
 
ive been living with tinnitus since I was little. it can be horrific at times. I cant lay down and go to sleep without some kind of outside noise.

I hope you get your hearing back
