my hearing went on sunday. I have suffered an ear infection and am on antibiotics. Back ground noise is no more atm. I am finding it so hard to hold conversations due to the incessant ringing in my ears and the 'robot' way everything sounds right now. I cant use the phone properly. i am concentrating so hard on hearing things it leaving me exhausted. I know this is only tempory untill the inflamamtion in my ears dies down, but its so hard.

I cant hear things like the kettle bewing, the computer cooling fan, the fish tank hum, all those little background noises that make life how it is. i went out yesterday and all the passing traffic was silent. I am waiting patiently for my hearing to return so i can appricate the small sounds once again.

sympathies misdee, it will return to normal soon honestly, i have permanant hearing loss in one ear and i live in fear of getting a cold etc so my hearing goes in my other ear.
i guess people are used to me constantly saying pardon!
