Amoxicillin is likely not ototoxic: not found yet on ototoxic drugs list (as the one below) and largely used to cure bacterial infections of babies and young children (like media otitis). http://www.nvrc.org/wp-content/uploads/2010/12/Drugs-that-Cause-HL.pdf

Brilliant initiative Demi! Here is a small contribution: when you have "a head full of dreams" and you spend time and energy living "adventure of lifetime", there's not a lot of place for T. Look at this guy singing, playing piano and guitare, in a "amazing day". Chris Martin, Coldplay leader...

My doctor just tell me: "Never take magnesium just before sleeping: it's activity into body prevent sleeping." I've never tried, but apparently it's the case when reading this post. Tonight I've just tried taking my magnesium about 2 hours before sleeping and its seems fine. Magnesium effect is...

Thanks Greg! Just a mistake, the previous link has of course nothing to see with T! Direct links to .html and .pdf article are: http://www.jneurosci.org/content/33/6/2356.long http://www.jneurosci.org/content/jneuro/33/6/2356.full.pdf The research and article seems very interesting.

The 3 month 'give up hope T disappearing' is a myth: acute, subacute & chronical tinnitus are simply statistical definitions without functional meaning, as told me my ENT. I've been having T for 8 months now after a media otitis in April. In June my ENT reported me my right ear lost 4% of...

Thanks a lot Billie and Candie for your nice support message :) ! During the day, coping is not too hard because between work and family I'm very busy (but sometimes it's difficult not to hear: the T is maybe not to loud but is very high frequency). Usually I'm someone that is very concentrated...

Hi everyone, Beginning of May I had a very painful viral acute otitis media that made me suffering during about 5 days before my ear-drum start trickling. Since the first day of this otitis I've been under classical medical treatment for this disease. When the pain disappeared, it let place for...
