    @GBB I think both substances have an impact to T. Definitely methylprednisolone.

    Tinnitus for a Month, Maybe from Stress — Scared and Anxious

    It's because the headphones turn down so much random noise around us. I had the same phenomenon with the Bose QC35 II headphones. But, some people report increased or spiked tinnitus after using them; really it's not foreseeable how the negative pressure to the eardrum or spikes during...

    N-Acetylcysteine (NAC)

    I got a huge spike from NAC when I took it yesterday evening. I hope it goes away eventually.

    Why Tinnitus Intensity Can Change After Sleep?

    I have several tinnitus noises that are there during the day, but completely gone for about 15 minutes after I wake up. Is that even tinnitus? How should I treat it?

    Cursed by the Tinnitus Demon

    Don't give up. If the human body has one significant property, it's its ability to habituate. If you look at disabled pets or animals, it's quite astounding how fast they can adapt. One of the most important points is to try to not actively listen to the noise, take it for granted, and change...

    N-Acetylcysteine (NAC)

    Ok, in Germany we still have those effervescent tablets and even granules that you can take without water. They are for coughing, but I'd rather take those then some sketchy brand's, because they are for sale in pharmacies officially. Those NAC tablets from Amazon apparently have QC issues such...

    N-Acetylcysteine (NAC)

    Is NAC in tablet form the same NAC as the fizzy tablets you use for better coughing?

    Can L-Glutamine in Soy Worsen Tinnitus? On Vegan Diet for 6 Months, and Tinnitus Is Worse

    Hello everyone, I have been on a vegan diet for 6 months now, and during the time, 2 new tinnitus sounds were added to my 'repertoire'. Both due to stress I suppose, but also without any kind of trauma. One ear just started ringing loudly, the ringing subsided, and some morse code tinnitus...

    Steroids: Prednisone / Dexamethasone / Others (Oral and Intratympanic Injections)

    I really feel you if you have to take this drug regularly. Stay strong! Roughly one week after taking the dose, I'm sort of back to normal. My muscles/joints are still affected and I lost 5 kg, but it's slowly fading. The panic pulses are less frequent, and I don't spiral out of control...

    Steroids: Prednisone / Dexamethasone / Others (Oral and Intratympanic Injections)

    Yes, unfortunately it's all in German. It recommends that dose based on 'practical experience' - the European guideline actually rates this guideline as very unreliable. Should have listened. Gonna get a blood work now to check if everything is back to normal, still feeling hot flashes from time...

    Steroids: Prednisone / Dexamethasone / Others (Oral and Intratympanic Injections)

    I once again advise anyone who has no hearing loss and only tinnitus not to take this drug. I had panic attacks and thought I would die, breathing problems, severe insomnia over 5 days, stomacheache, tachycardia, etc. I only took one dose and it was that bad. After 6 days it's better, I slept...

    Steroids: Prednisone / Dexamethasone / Others (Oral and Intratympanic Injections)

    Ok fuck this. I took one dose of 250mg. I couldn't sleep until 5 am, and I had a pulse of 110 WHILE SLEEPING. My skin felt hot and rosacea got worse, I couldn't eat any carbohydrates because of the sugar problem with prednisone, and the bone of my heel started hurting. I'm not taking anymore of...

    Steroids: Prednisone / Dexamethasone / Others (Oral and Intratympanic Injections)

    I just had an appointment with the doctor. He prescribed me 250mg prednisone for 3 days (3x250), no taper. That's according to the German guideline on tinnitus and hearing loss. I tried everything, CBD oil, NR, NAC, B12, D3+K2, Magnesium, but it didn't help. Actually, additionally to my...
