Looking for Tips for Getting Over the Habituation Hump
Hi Michael, I saw that you either currently use or have used the PureTone MM10. I was curious, did it seem to block sound? I only need the masking feature. I'm worried that it will block some of my hearing and then potentially make tinnitus worse. -

Why Does My Hearing Get Better for a Few Seconds After Popping My Ears?
Follow me here... Feel free to chime in and let me know what's like for you. I will notice my ears need popped, so I will pop them (Frenzel, Valsalva, just a regular pop, whatever). Then, my hearing gets better for a few seconds until I swallow again. Once I swallow, there's a click, and... -

Gunshot Related Tinnitus Spike and Worsened Distorted Hearing (Dysacusis)
Wow! These are the same symptoms I have been trying to live with for almost two years now. 1. Constant ringing. 2. Sound distortions - it's so distracting and disheartening - all day long. 3. I also have the really high pitched pulsating tinnitus that I can modulate with my jaw! My jaw... -

Dog Groomer, Loud Dryers, Lately I've Started Hearing Odd Sounds WITHIN External Sounds
Good evening! I have the same issue as you. I have a constant ring, which is bad, but can be covered up. What can't be covered is the cicada-like sound that I hear along with other sounds. When I hear it most: fans, waterfalls and plastic bags. But I also hear a chirp like sound with other...- jlish

Yeah. My reactivity was on a whole nother level for the first month or two. Not livable. It still reacts to footsteps, typing on a keyboard, etc. but it’s just a second-long high pitched noise. Before, listening to music in my car at low volume would cause a hum in my ear that would stick around...- jlish

I have medium pitched constant tinnitus in both ears. But I also have a high pitched tinnitus in my right ear that gets louder when: - I move my neck to either side. - I bend/duck down. - I press on my jaw. - I press on my temple near my ear. And it also reacts immediately to any sound... -

Tinnitus with a Movement-Based Bonus Sound
Hello Chris, Do you still get the hissing sounds with head movements? I have a normal tinnitus, which isn't really a big deal. But what is bothersome is this hiss I get with head movements/ducking/neck movements. I'm trying to pin down the source. Have you gotten used to it, has it gotten...- jlish

Audiogram and Other Hearing Test Results
Audiologists and others are telling me that my loss and tinnitus is probably not noise induced but rather that it is caused by a middle ear problem. My tinnitus is around 1,000 Hz, constant ringing in the left, near constant in the right. I also have some hissing/reactivity that competes with...
