    I’ve developed distortion/ringing in my right ear every time I talk or when I hear other voices. I can’t tell if it’s reactive T or hyperacusis. Either way, it’s so annoying.

    Arcanesystem's Tinnitus Updates

    Just a small update because I think it is pretty significant. I am currently being evaluated for vestibular migraines, with a possible rule out of Meniere’s disease, given my history of ocular migraines, which I have had my whole life. Over the past year, I have experienced an increased...

    Does anyone have recommendations for earplugs that won’t break skin in your ear canal upon removal? I have had this issue with foam plugs from CVS lately and would find tears/blood in my ear after use (big yikes). Or maybe there’s a quick fix to prevent that sort of problem?

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

    Reactive Morse Code / Typewriter Tinnitus

    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...

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

    Arcanesystem's Tinnitus Updates

    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...

    I don’t believe it. I just woke up from a poor night of sleep and my spike is nearly eliminated for no apparent reason.

    Good news: the spike I can mostly hear when I'm in a silent or nearly silent area. Bad news: it's relentless and doesn't seem to be fading.

    Arcanesystem's Tinnitus Updates

    @DimLeb, I think my last 'attack' was 3 or 4 days ago, around the time I started to eat clean. Other than that, I don't think there are any improvements. 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...
