Pam Roberts, 41, from Maidstone, Kent, England, said her condition was like being tortured every day.
A rare anomaly allows a woman to clearly hear every rotation of her own eyes, movement of blood flow, heartbeat and every inhalation and exhalation.
The anomaly was caused by a fall and a strong blow to the head. After that, small holes appeared in Pam's left ear canal.
According to doctors, Pam Roberts is currently one of only about a hundred people around the world with a similar anomaly.
She also hears her food being digested inside, her muscles and bones moving. In general, every act of her body's work echoes in her head.
Exhausted by this condition, Pam says that she has become a shadow of herself and is forced to lead a reclusive lifestyle, despite her husband and three children.
Pam's official diagnosis is Superior Semicircular Canal Dehiscence (SSCD). She underwent surgery to close the holes in the bone, but it was unsuccessful. Now Pam is trying to raise money for an operation in the United States.
In addition to constant body sounds, Pam has a lot of pain and dizziness every day.

This syndrome is extremely rare and most often occurs with thinning of the bone in the internal auditory canal. This causes imbalance in sound reception and its special sensitivity.
Pam is especially annoyed by the sounds from her stomach "It's a constant gurgling and the sound of flowing fluids." And she compares her breathing to the sound of breathing in Darth Vader's helmet.
It all started in June 2015 when Pam slipped and fell in her bathtub, bumping her head. Soon after, she began to develop anxiety about the possibility of hearing unnecessary sounds. And in May 2016, she was already diagnosed with SSCD.
SSCD was first described in the medical literature in 1998. It was believed that it only occurs in the elderly and for an unknown reason. Since then, only about 600 patients with such a diagnosis have been recorded in the world.
