How to get a diagnosis of learning disabilities for son so he can get support and move into supported living?
He's currently in a tricky living situation. He's being financially abused . He also has MH difficulties and is vulnerable. His last IQ assessment he scored 81 on a IQ test and the CLDT who did the test say they can't meet his needs as he hasn't got a intellectual disability and the MH team will meet

Got tinnitus 24/7 all of a sudden
Hello. I'm new to the forum and been on a bit of a journey so far. My mum died suddenly in New year's day. Had to give her cpr so quite traumatic. Handled things ok initially until a fortnight later when I got awful flu. Went to doc and told him symptoms included ringing in ears and total stuffy head

Prednisolone
5-6 Months of Louder Tinnitus & I managed to get my doctors to let me try Prednisolone for 8-9 days, but, it was a low dose of 15mg a day. A few days in, I could feel my hearing sharpness had increased & some ear fullness had gone & it feels less inflamed. My tinnitus did seem to slightly flutter about

Tinnitus and mild hearing loss
I have been suffering with tinnitus for a while after being diagnosed with SLE 2010. I have also started missing conversations or getting the wrong end of the conversation. I have started to go off balance, like I've had a drink when I've not, veering always to the right. Yesterday I attended a vestibule

Hi everyone, I promised to let you know any updates. I went to audiology and ENT yesterday, had a hearing test then seen a specialist nurse then a consultant. I’m afraid I need a cochlear implant, my hearing is very poor now in my left ear, they think the cause is my sensorial hearing loss suddenly just

Severe tinnitus and sensorineural hearing loss
(Moderator's note - this post contains suicidal ideation, which may be upsetting to some readers) I have recently been diagnosed with granulomatosis with polyangiitis as a result of an autoimmune disorder and have been suffering with tinnitus since the 17th December 2023. The tinnitus is often raging

Newbie with Tinnitus and Pulsatile Tinnitus
Hi everyone, I'm new to this forum and would appreciate any tips. I've had tinnitus for many years and PT for 18 months. I also have ear fullness, dizziness and headaches.

Hi all I’m new to this group. I was diagnosed 18 months ago with tinnitus after I went the to my local Boots for hearing test and they said I had a 60% loss in my left ear, I was rather surprised. I was referred to audiologist given a hearing aid and that was that. Had two sessions of tinnitus therapy

hi All, I wish I could cheer you up but unfortunately this is not a particularly happy post. I recently started suffering from pulsatile, tonal tinnitus , aural fullness and sound distortion in very quick succession. While the hearing test doesn’t show much change from previous ones, I am sure there

Most of us here have Tinnitus, we all react differently to the Drugs. Some Medicines work better for us and not for others. I am trying to collect some research data, to also help myself, as I have pretty bad Tinnitus & to try some different Medicines that might work for me. There is a lot of info out
