I was wondering if anyone has experienced hearing difficulties due to fibro? I do have to concentrate when I'm chatting to people but when they ask me something I just can't hear, it's all mumbled. One of my friends has noticed I just try and pretend I have heard and nod, doesn't always work though.

I was seen by an ENT and an audiologist checked me during the initial visit. I agree that the hearing test a great idea 💜.

I don't know about fibromyalgia related but It's best to see a hearing aid specialist and get your hearing checked anyway. Also check your medications and see if any of them are otic toxic. I was told by an audiologist that Norco is otic toxic.

I have a narrowed vein close to one of my ears. It was diagnosed approx 2 years ago. I can and will sense every beat of my heart for the rest of my life.

I have come to realize that all of my senses have been more sensitive than every other person I have known well my whole life.

Is it fibromyalgia? There most likely is a nexus.💜
