Profound Hyperacusis
Posted: Wed Aug 14, 2013 1:06 pm
I suffer from profound noise sensitivity such that I cannot tolerate the sound of ordinary voices or ordinary everyday noises. Any repeated noise, even one that would be considered low, if it is repeated continually torments me. Any noise can cause my hands to paralyse, my body to go numb, my muscles to spasm, my guts to tremor, my body to overheat, my head to explode with pain and my symptoms to instantly deteriorate.
I have Very Severe ME. I have to spend large amounts of time in one room with triple glazing and thick sound proof curtains, because of external noise, especially from airforce jets that fly low over my house - causing me physical harm and deterioration.
I am in constant severe pain, I have massive headaches, left/right sided or total paralysis daily. I have post exertional neuro immune exhaustion, very severe cognitive dysfunction, processing information can be delayed for several hours. I am unable to see people, or bear touch. I have multiple chemical sesitivity and gastric issues, breathing and swallowing difficulties and have no medical consultant to advise me.
I cannot travel to a hospital, I cannot be in any public environment because of my extreme symptoms wihout harm I cannot have two- way conversation.
Can you tell me, what medical consultant will take my physical symptoms seriously ? What treatment is there for noise sensitivity ?
There is such a risk, by any interaction, of harm - how can that be taken into account ? Is there any treatment ?
What sort of medical consultant deals with such profound symptoms and acute noise sensitivity ?
