I'm new here!

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.

Loss of hearing with lupus SLE #Lupus #Fibromyalgia #ChronicFatigue #ChronicPain #HearingLoss #Tinnitus

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.

I'm new here!

Hi, my name is Hanover23_. I'm here because I have hearing loss that impacts my mental health that was already fragile. I am in my early 50s and have had to give up my career as a lecturer because of these conditions. I’m not sure where to turn and would be grateful to hear other people’s story. My hearing loss is as a result of meniers disease which I have lived with for the past twenty years.

Supplements

I've had LC for over a year and a half with symptoms of brain fog, fatigue, PEM, dizziness, hearing loss, and, of course, some anxiety and depression. I have recently got into therapy for my emotional issues but I am at a loss as to how best to deal with my physical symptoms. I seem to get better but then relapse. Over and over. I am taking a grab bag full of vitamins and supplements but I don't know if they are helping. And, perhaps, some of them are worsening my condition? Have any of you gone the supplement route and, if so, what are your conclusions about which to take and which to avoid? THX
