bootsin,

Do you have one doctor who prescribes all of your meds? Your mix of meds have lots of adverse drug interactions. Vicodin can cause tinnitus.

I would seriously suggest you talk to a good pharmacist about mixing the drugs you are on. The combination could be causing some of your problems.

Plus, falling asleep while driving is a risk of Vicodin and tramadol. Can you car pool to school?

Have you tried using music or other sounds to help with the tinnitus so you can sleep? You need your sleep. Otherwise, your brain will never heal. It will just get worse.

I have some music that I know will allow me to fall asleep. It has a tempo that appears to match the tempo of my brain. Try experimenting with different music or sounds. Some use the sound of a water fall, or wind in tree branches. Google "sleep music. "

Keep looking until you find someone who instills confidence about the drugs you are taking.

My best to you.
