My dad has this constant electric current-like noise in his head, like a ringing eeee sound. He also gets cramps and pain in his upper abdomen, but his LFT and KFT tests came back normal. He had a hip replacement two years ago, two discs put in his neck spine 14 years back, and his gallbladder was removed. His blood test for thick blood was normal too. Any idea what could be causing his symptoms?

I'm concerned about my dad who's been on Maxnuron LC for nerve strength for about three weeks now. I'm wondering if it's okay to add the meds I've attached to this message to his routine, or if they might be serving the same purpose as Maxnuron LC. It's important to me to ensure there aren't any overlapping medications or potential interactions. Could you help clarify this for me?
