I have had them and still have them. Exactly what you describe, Wesley.

I told one doctor who said I should exercise more. Well, okay. When I got out here to Idaho I told the doctor out here and he prescribed Relais (?? -- it's advertised on TV). Didn't work. So he told me to take 325 mg. capsules of quinine. This has probably led to a hearing loss, as quinine is ototoxic (kills off the hairs in your middle ear and they don't grow back). Now I'm on a muscle relaxant; it seems to help.

Yes, I get plenty of calcium and potassium -- that was the first things I started.

If you do take quinine, WATCH IT!!!! I'm looking at bilateral hearing aids now.
