[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You are awfully far down the path of thinking you have a tumor when there is no specific evidence of that.[/quote]

I see you have an opinion on my actions and did not answer my question. You can just move along unless you have any sort of useful answer to my question about how others can be helped in the future with better diagnostics.

Unless you think it works best to only help patients once they are partly deaf?

OP[/quote]

OP you’re not right. Tinnitus in one earn is *extremely* common. The most common cause is high frequency hearing loss that happens with age—and this is just from exposure to loud sounds over time. So, even though you now have some hearing loss, it’s still unlikely to be a tumor. You are getting waaaayyy ahead of yourself here, and your “gotcha”/victim/paranoid mentality isn’t helping you. But it’s par for the course for someone who starts out shopping around to a “functional medicine” doctor and then crying about missed diagnoses (which it’s not even clear this is).[/quote]

Completely agree with the above. OP posted an alarmist message that had misinformation and yes this victim mentality. An acoustic neuroma is NOT the most likely scenario, and this was the case for the OP who just posted that he or she does not have a neuroma. And frankly OP you've been unpleasant in some of your follow up messages[/quote]
