Summary
Petrel 27120 described ringing in the ears, headaches and hearing problems that had been 'kicking my ass for some time now'. They took about six 10 mg Decodrone steroid shots, which calmed the ringing by 40-50 decibels, cleared the headaches and improved hearing drastically, but the benefit wore off within a few days and they had to savor the hours it lasted.
