In the last month or so I have been having trouble with watching tv and listening to music my ears have been sensitive to certain sounds like I have to wear earplugs when washing up but in the last month or so it has got worse can not think of why it has happened just hope it gets better have even stopped wearing my hearing aids again.

This is a condition called Hyperacusis. I hope you are able to find treatments that help. I have the odd thing, but tends to be things like those awful hand driers that sound like jet engines in public or office toilets, so I just try to minimise exposure to them.

God bless, John
