    well hopefully if your putting the pernicious anemia rigth the tinitus should become less bothersome. ent might also be able to see what if not the anemia is causing it so thats might be a positive

    if its not age related you might be able to be fitted with a speical hearing aid to make the noise less noticable .

    if it bothers you at night when its quite try a music pillow it has a speaker init and you plug your phone into it so you canplay music thru your pillow.

    a chiropractor might be able to help they often can with this. and so can reflexology and accupunture .if the medical people cant help these might be worth a try , iv had accupunture for it in the past and i t did work ..its back now but due to my fibro.

      you should have it done to ease your mind , nobody understands how this effects your daily life, if an acoustic neuroma didnt show up last year its highly unlikely as it is a very slow growing non maligment tumour so dont worry about that  axx

    Your dizzy spells sound as though you may have Labrinthitus Ask your G.P

    It is very easily cured. Two or three tabs usually sorts me out .

      Hello again, can't give you an honest answer regarding which 

      ailment the G P's decide we are suffering from .Luck of the draw  if they pick the right one, or nearest. I just got lucky with a G.P  who took 

      notice ,and knew how to diagnose  "The Dizzies ""

      Don't get so uptight about Tinnitus, it's not terminal, just a sodding

      nuisance
