I just hate when it gets worse and there's no obvious reason for it. Such a stupid condition.

My tinnitus has changed for the worse(-ish) since late December last year, so my ears don't seem to have the morse code sound anymore. It is very difficult to hear my quieter sounds over the new constant pitches. The only one I can describe if I pay attention: a quiet shimmering, intermittent...

Nothing's getting better and I'm becoming more hateful.

Came back here a little early for those Michigan signal timing results hah.

I did The Bad Thing and went to a show last night. T is behaving itself, so I'm very, very relieved.

I was able to briefly experience silence again today.

Just a quick update: I think the spike is starting to settle slightly. I’m trying my hardest not to pay attention or listen to it as that has resulted in an excellent past three days for my mood. Leaving the house and doing things I like have helped. It’s not as sharp sounding as before and...

Whenever I walk with hearing protection on, I hear a high-pitched tone beep in my right ear with every step I take. What in the...

My ear was agitated again past two days, but I realize that there's nothing much that can be done except to wait it out. Many people say their...

Hey. So, my current knowledge on cochlear hydrops is based heavily on reading around online. I haven't really officially visited a doctor to get a true confirmation, but I've always had spontaneous tinnitus that likes to switch around every few months. It's made me suspect that there is...

I believe my new symptoms are consistent with hydrops, so I started the AIP or whatever it’s called. I’ll try to stick with it through March

@Guywithapug, yeah, definitely agree on giving time for healing. If I had one good day, there's bound to be more. As for the fact that it's a random spike, there is a possibility it may subside. Anxiety will only make things worse, so I'm trying to stay calm. I've been reading around about...
