I am sorry for your pain. My only suggestion is DON'T GIVE UP. It may be expensive with seeking multiple medical opinions, but better to have an answer! 

I know what it's like to want an answer that doesn't include taking drugs.

Good luck.

it is very rare but you may have developed allergy to the titanium mesh, recommend you speak to a doctor who can do allergy testing.  i would call several and see what they know specifically about titanium reactions, try to find a doctor who has actually seen this sort of thing and tested for it.
Diagnosed 4/2016 1.4cm AN.  Mild hearing loss and tinnitus.
Removed 7/2016 at Keck, Drs. Freidman and Giannotta, Retrosig approach.  Lost hearing in AN ear, but no other negative outcomes.  Will investigate bone anchored hearing devices.
