MPG1770 September 16, 2023 Share MPG1770 GC Server Admin September 16, 2023 10th October - 2nd ear operation - and hopefully the final one. The pain and noise is unbearable, told that would last for about 3weeks. That's why I ain't been around for a week, noises are seriously amplified, especially electrical equipment around G# - thus wearing headphones is out of the question - wish I could record the sound, but suffice it to say, put your head inside a washing machine on a full load at fast spin, now you hear that; it's constant unmitigated torture - I haven't got the courage to cut my ear off, unlike van Gogh. Had about 10seconds of wonderful peace in my head yesterday, and no, I don't hear scary voices. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MPG1770 October 10, 2023 Author Share MPG1770 GC Server Admin October 10, 2023 Just got home after spending 9hours in hospital - good news is that infection has cleared, but bad new is that I got to wait for another 3-4 months for operation - I could have it tomorrow if I paid privately at a cost of around $4K, but I'm not going down that route - besides not having the funds, I'm against privatisation of our NHS - and if USA pharma industries get their bloody hands on it, I will incite revolution and pinch our tea back.

MPG1770 October 14, 2023 Author Share MPG1770 GC Server Admin October 14, 2023 (edited) I will be quick if I have the $4K to pay for it, otherwise it will be a 3 to 4 month wait, but by that time, the infection could spread to my other ear and if these new antibiotics don't take control; as a final resort as having to wait for so long, it is only 50% chance that the operation will be successful - unless I have it now, I'll be the new Beethoven for the 21st Century, never get to perform or hear my music again. Until then - if I can't play the piano anymore to an audience, my Soul bleeds a thousand tears and I fear for my life. To change that, I can only offer 1 song if anyone was going to that change humanity : Otherwise, I'm going through the turmoil of never being able to hear music again.

MPG1770 December 12, 2023 Author Share MPG1770 GC Server Admin December 12, 2023 Ear operation cancelled - surgeon doing private work no doubt. Hearing so bad my compound triple time is syncopated on a double dotted semiquaver performing a diabolical fugal counterpoint arabesque in the style of a fast spinning washing machine about to take off into orbit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
