Please Help....
Iam 35 year old male who has had Hepatitis-C for about 10 years, I don't smoke or drink and apart from being a little overweight and suffering from Anxiety I'm generally physically sound - I have this 'humming' sound in my right ear and it only comes when its silent and Iam lying down in bed and it gets on my nerves and stops me from sleeping - sometimes I can sleep and when I wake it will be REALLY loud - I sometimes get ringing in same ear aswell, my G.P. can't help - he says its not 'Tinnitus' as its in one ear and only at nights in bed - he has referred me to ENT but the app. is 3 months away,,,,
I recently underwent 12 months Immunotherapy for Hep-C (Interferon/Ribavirin) - during this treatment the humming stopped (when I cleared the Virus) and after treatment I relapsed , the virus came back and so did the humming... so now im starting to believe it might be related to the Virus, however ive not had this humming for same duration ive had Hep-C - about 2 years ago I had my ears syringed and its been roughly since then (though cant be 100% sure) that this has been happening ... it drives me mad, I already have an illness and severe sleeping disorders I can't stand this humming when trying to sleep
can anyone help?
thanks
