    I agree that that is a big problem in medicine, but how is this post an example of that? As far as I’m reading no-one was dismissing her claim of having tinnitus. They were just very surprised that it can apparently manifest as a physical sound, which was unexpected by both her and the scientists.

      The same could affect mens ears. As far as I’m aware there is a higher rate of tinnitus in men due to work related injuries. I’m sure they were not believed.
