Local support

[hertfordnanny]

Hello, I live in hertford, hertfordshire. does anyone know of a tinnitus help/support group reasonably local? I have had tinnitus for too many years, at least 30, at the moment I am finding it really hard to cope. Would be good to get some support from somewhere! Janice

Hi Janice, I live near Hertford and like you looked for a support group but couldn’t find one close enough. I think there is a group at Addenbrooks but I dont know if it’s just for their patients. I have a referral there on the 29th April so will let you know

Hello. I see there is one at hitchin, might give that on a go. Just feel it would be good to talk with someone else who can understand.

Morning Janice

I never found that one, would you be able to send me the details or the link to where you found it please . Might give it a go myself. I agree with you, I don’t know anyone who has this awful condition myself and when you’re not coping very well or going through a spike it would be nice to talk to someone who understands. I’ve only had it a year but it feels like a lifetime. Take care.

Hi Janice

Was wondering if you went to the support group? And how did you find it? Also I live near Hertford and wondered if you wanted to meet in town for a coffee and chat one day?
