Hi, my name is Farhat. I've been diagnosed with conductive hearing loss and hyperacusis
Hello. This is the first time I've posted about myself. I was diagnosed with ADHD-Combine two years ago along with social anxiety disorder, avoidant personality disorder, PTSD, and OCPD. I also forgot hearing loss and I have bilateral hearing aids. I am struggling to keep a routine for myself. I make one and it works for a couple days. I never write them down etc. I have found that checking things off works for me. Can someone tell me what is a good digital to do list or tool that I can use in my day to day?
Hey. I’ll try to keep this short as it’s way too much if I go into details.

All I can say is yes, I’m in pain. And yes, I’m exhausted. And frustrated. I’m not a crier and all I do is start crying all the time. I have 4 kids and I can’t be the best for them. I am failing everywhere in life and I just need to get this fixed or someone to finally step in and help because I can’t keep declining like this.
I am a veteran. I have little say in my health care. I can’t get a second opinion. Getting a rheumatologist seems to be impossible despite numerous doctors telling me I should see rheumatology. I’m feeling so defeated. If I could at least narrow things down it would help so much, so I could share my research with my doctors. I have several things on my list but I need to get a really good list. Please help if you can think of what may be causing all of this.
Thank you.
*** I would share many more pictures if I could 💕

Hi, my name is 3856. I'm here because I want to communicate more effectively with my spouse who has hearing loss. I also want to improve my skills coping with a chronic back pain problem.
I live with lupus and fibro and all the things that come with it. My life seems relatively "normal" although my mobility is 👇👇. Do you know that lupus can affect your hearing?? I researched and was shocked to find out it is true. I have had episodes of tinnitus and dealt with it by soft music.
I was recently diagnosed with severe hearing loss on my right side and mild loss on my left. Initially I thought it was tinnitus or wax. This was not the problem. Imagine my shock having to be fit with hearing aids; although I just shrugged and plodded along.
Have your hearing checked. This should be as compulsory as the eye checks if you use hydroxychloroquin.
