Hi Sharman I am sorry to say I don't have a treatment to share with you as we are still trying to find out what the cause may be. I have been the same as you with doctors not giving a damm, but my onc looked at my left ear and saw something, so I am getting tested. I do not know what he is looking for as yet, but I will be sure to share when I know. Sorry you are having this also, but mine also are very painful, not only ringing. I know how you feel, it is really awful! xxx Linda in Ca
