Has anyone else experienced chronic tinnitus with their fibromyalgia? If so, have you found anything to relieve or eliminate it?

My Husband Is Inconsiderate And Has No Compassion
A MyFibroTeam Member asked a question đź’­

I'm having a rough pain day and I'm laying in bed...I'm feeling a flare coming on and told my husband how sick I feel. He didn't hug me, didn't ask me what he can do for me, he immediately tells me I'll be OK soon, to lay down. All while being across the room. No compassion at all. He is becoming more and more annoyed by my illness or when I'm not feeling well....I feel so very alone. I consider divorce because I feel so alone as it is.
