How long you had it both ears ?

Since January 2022 primarily. A mixture of a viral infection increased it then loud gym class made it even higher and reactive. Initial pain gone but tinnitus much the same. Wake up in a panic every morning with the jet engine noises greeting me in both ears

@Nick47 yea my acoustic accident happen janaury got t both ears moderate then severe after doctors test . But ive had mild T in one ear since 2013 its both now ... im sorta use to it but its sucks

Wow. He was a great poster who had the natural talent to reduce matters into its most elemental. His knowledgeable breakdowns on various tinnitus research projects were exceptional. A terrible lost indeed. RIP

Good god. What a terrible shock.

So sorry to hear this. That guy brought a lot of hope to me with his research into tech-medicine. I’m feeling less hopeful without him

Still in post production. I hear in December we might get a trailer.

@kingsfan did they write anything about it working or release the results

@Guywithapug thanks .. ive had t since 2014 .. its been easy last 6 years forgot till i got this nox and super loud tinntius both ears now .. it keeps getting louder

Don’t end it man let’s get through this.

Alot here say to do ADs but say they had a horrible time coming off and/or it made them worse. I already had ear damage from Zoloft so i dont think meds can always be the answer..IDK... What else can be done to improve or get by until he does?

Mild Tinnitus is definitely a breeze lol. Yea severe T is a different animal entirely. I know the feeling.

@Wrfortiscue any improvements?

Just saw this glad you are having some good days. I’m struggling but hopefully will improve again

Im back in shitter noise trauma yesterday... from PA system things seem little louder and differnet

It will improve just dont be around loud music and noises.. or it will set you back each time ..

Do u have sensitivity to sound?

@Mal25 not as bad as before

@Mal25 i had loudness hypercacusis and pain after awhile my brain calmed down i still do get dull ache gotta avoid loud noise exposure for few months

Clonazepam is temporary lowering my tinnitus but it is quite addictive. I am taking it because it is either it or death.

I got prescribed busiprone I'm scared to try it but my anxiety and hyperacusis and tinnitus is pushing me to my limits

@Mal25 Did you end up taking the meds?

I don't know what causes it, but you are not alone. My fleeting T can be gone for 2 days, and then suddenly I'm hit with 10 of them in a single day. Its so hard sometimes..

I wonder if true because muffs and foam plugs cause stabbing pain after using them too much

@Wrfortiscue i fell asleep with a hard rubber plug in omg next day awful i only used in one ear thankfully..

@Wrfortiscue @Hottopic29 I agree. Plugs and muff make my ears really sore and sensitive after too much use.

Nope lol

happens to me all the damn time lol

Yeah, we’ve all done it. I always catch mine and ripped them off my ears causing that horrible suction sound.

My friend doesnt have hyperacusis or tinnitus gets ear pain its nerves she has to take gabapentin

Clenching is the worst. My jaw is sore this week.

Maybe your earplugs are irritating your ear canals then? Mine used to ache from the pressure of the foam pressing against them. Now I only use them around shopping carts, then switch to customs.

Doubt it to be honest but only one way to find out

HBOT is too risky imho.

Worth a shot hope it works

Can't hurt but I tried celery juice in beginning, did nothing.

@LostinTX how long did you try the celery juice for?

As I understand it the YT recordings are not able to accurately present certain frequencies. I wouldn't rely on them for measuring hearing. An Audiologist is much better equipped to measure such things.

Youtube compresses audio so I don't think it's very reliable. Try the tinnitus tuner on the audionotch website. Your speakers also need to be able to reproduce the frequencies accurately as well.

@kingsfan yea i hear the tones on there too under 50% volume sounds like piercing tones

Pepper in capsules or?

@LostinTX nope was told mix 1/4 black pepper in honey and take it with the pill for better absorbtion i just put it ib my mouth on spoon and wash it down with ginger ale lol

Do you think it was the tumeric?

I was looking into them too. If you get an estimate on price can you share info?

Im trying to find ones that are best .. there is broward clinic in florida
