Hope you’re right. 5 months in for me

i soon have 2 months full, and there as been improvement for me also. Some bad days, but some good days too. It's back and forth...Not losing hope!

"What is the extended audiogram?" "Why do you even need this kind of test?" "Hey you're fine don't use Doctor Google"

So true lol

I have a feeling too that my head position changes the sound...

I don't grind my teeth that I know of. I might try a dental biteguard anyway. My T is somatic yes, it changes with extreme neck movements. But I remember reading that something like 70 percent of people with tinnitus have that regardless of the cause.

oh man... if yours is heavily influenced, maybe you should try a splint or therapy for your neck mayhaps.

Hopefully you will start getting more of those good periods and they will keep getting longer.

I think that's what's happening. Gone today again. Thanks for the encouragement Bill

Wow that’s great! Anything different you’ve been doing?

I did change a lot of things when I got my bad spike in october or november, perhaps the result is felt now? The past month I have been working on releasing tension in my neck and shoulders, been using many yogic chanting techniques to de-stress. Sometime during this month I mostly stopped caring about the T when I have it. I stopped resisting, and something changed.. Or so I feel

Wow! Sounds like you’re on the right path to easing your mind and letting go. Seems like the results are finally kicking in :) congratulations! I will also look into yogic chanting as I’m looking for techniques to de-stress also.

I've been seeing fading the last 4 weeks or so, but it's never truly silent. It's still better than it was at the start, however.

I think comparison to others can be good, but equally it shouldn't invalidate your or others' suffering.I see some people do this on this board and I think it's a dangerous road to go down.

Happy for you!

You are very lucky. Even though bad T days are always rough.

I feel ya, Today is a poor day. I feel like tomorrow will be better

I know how you’re feeling, but we are all in this together. I hope you feel better.

Back to a 2/10 and feeling better. Had a bad streak of three 10/10 days in both ears (always in left only before) and was despairing. You were right Pdodge

Is the tinnitus appearing more often or is it that the severity is increasing?

I’m sorry to hear about the other conditions compounding the problem. I hope you’re staying vigilant with your ears

It's been appearing less often the last month, but when it does it's more severe. Always wearing earplugs when outside of my apartment and I've stopped using headphones. Not sure if low music through speakers is giving me spikes or not, maybe I'll stop that for a while as well. The problem is that creating music is the most important thing in my life

Thanks for your concern, I hope you are doing OK at your end

You should stop using the headphones. Hope you feel better soon.
