So about 2 and a half weeks ago i got ride of a cold. Then what do ya know the next morning i woke up with my ears ringing louder than ever.. Went to the E.N.T. he said my ears are healthy and my hearing was A okay. The ringing subsides a hell of alot.. But im scared its gonna come back worse. Any of you guys know if this is gonna turn into a long term thing? I almost got sent to the 5th floor because of my depression it came with..

      How do you cope with yours Anne.  Any advice for us sufferers.  Does it get any better over time.  I had mine + - 9 months ago, still here, not going anywhere anytime soon.

      Hi Shabina

      I am affraid i just have to put up with it. The more I notice my ears screaming, the louder it seems to be. As I am typing this, the screaming is so loud it drives me mad.. I so wish there was something that could be done..

    I have had it for years, too manyto count. I have found it gets worse if I am in a car with the window down or out on my mobility scooter in the wind. As others have said, there is no cure, but hopefully now your cold is better and it is getting less, it will disappear altogether.

    Regards, Val.

      I wouldn't think so, seeing as it lessening fast. Let's hope it soon goes away all together.
