Wow, yeah … I've been dealing with the same type of tinnitus as you, along with many debilitating symptoms from both Autonomic & Peripheral Neuropathy. After the 2nd year of symptoms, I started seeing specialist, unfortunately receiving no help with resolving anything. Now into my 6th year I have reached the pinacol of being able to live with my symptoms, yeah basically throwing in the towel … It seems that the medical field has almost no knowledge in isolating causes and/or treatments with neuropathy. It seems this Neuropathy is a total mystery to the medical field. Over the past 6 years, I've gotten much worse with no relief 24/7. Recently, over the last few years, COVID has totally taken over the medical field in Michigan leaving everyone else with no hope for future relief. I hope you have much better success than I have.

@usadavidh I’m so sorry to hear you’ve not been able to find any relief. I truly empathize. I have small fiber neuropathy and autonomic neuropathy. My doctor says the autonomic neuropathy is the worst of the two and I have to agree. The symptoms are all over the place and it’s hard to treat. We really must be our own health advocates. This forum really helps! May I ask what medications you’ve tried and how you’ve responded to those medications? I’ve had symptoms for many years but was just diagnosed Fall 2021 so I’m still going through the trial and error with medication. I have found that antidepressants are now a must for me. The antidepressants I’ve tried so far serve a dual purpose; they are supposed to help pain too. So far they’re much better at helping me cope than actually helping the pain. Still looking for the right drugs to provide overall relief.
I hope you can find some relief, too. Hang in there ❤️
