I have a normal audiogram (no hearing loss below (15 DB HL). My distorted hearing occured after a doctor didn't give me a new antibiotic while I had a bacterial infection in my sinuses that spread to both middle ears.
I have seen probally 8 ENTs and 5 Nuerotologists/Otologist. One diagnosed me with Semicircular Canal Dehiscence
Syndrome because of thin bone on my Lateral/ horizontal semicircular canal from demineralization from the bacteria eating away at it. The John's Hopkins Otologists Disagrees. But nobody is infallible and all doctors have been failing me. Why is my audiogram "normal" and I have tinnitus and a distorted voice since my sinus amd ear infection from almost 4 years ago. All doctors that specialize in the ear seem to be bad at their jobs... I went from being happy and loving life to miserable and debilitated... I can't imagine a happy life when my voice sounds distorted when I speak. THERE IS SOMETHING WRONG WITH MY EARS ;( I feel like most doctors ONLY care about lining their pocket books. Of course they will help you if it's something easy to diagnose like an ongoing ear infection, step throat.

I just want to get better I haven't been happy for 4 years and even worse I'm severely depressed and debilitated... humans are social beings... I hear a mix of very quick screech noises & high pitched static that happens simultaneously as I speak. My own voice makes me cringe, makes it so im hesitant to speak or don't want to speak at all. I sometimes get the feeling of nails on a chalkboard from my own voice. And obviously my voice sounds the same to other people because the problem is in my inner or middle ear.
