@jimhd I was wondering about Lidocaine and ear lol Ive had it for so long I don't notice it much except when it roars on me . The hearing aides help if you get the right ones to quiet the tinnitus. Dr. has me on Gabapentin for my neuropathy. It helps me at night mostly. I use the Topricin when needed during the day. Im so active all day don't seem to notice much.
