I though a little aspirin a day is good for you? So many conflicting reports. Google is a good thing but also confusing.

I I've been taking citalopram for a few years now, I feel they help. Must admit I'm the first to "show" that I'm fine and laugh and joke. Guess it's just my own masking, trying to convince myself I'm ok. Works most of the time.

Just headaches and the depressing feeling that, as if 3 deafening sounds aren't enough, now got pulsatile to add into the mix. Must admit I had an aspirin earlier and it helped a little. A little blood thining goes a long way lol :)

Good to know and nice to hear some things actually do work/help. Will look into it. Thanks

Hi Azeurotuner I had a Google of those things as I've never heard of them. Glad they work for you. Do you know what caused your pulsatile tinnitus?

Went to Drs today and I'm being referred to ENT. Probably be months but..... on the right track

Yes does sound overall a positive success. Hyperacusis, must've been awful, good riddance that is as good as gone.

Sorry to hear that. (No pun intended) I hope your hearing improved from the operation though.

Hi Greg. Did you have your stapeotomy because of tinnitus, or did it help it or cause it? Could be something unrelated too I guess. Thanks for the information and I will discuss the flow chart with my Dr and see what happens. I must admit I just got so used to Drs and people telling me that I...

I'm a strong believer in laughing at yourself. Laughter is the best medicine :)

This is all so helpful thank you very much. I shall book an appointment with the Dr and ask for a referral to ENT. As I agree, some sort of scan is necessary at this point. I do have GERD yes, and suffer with acid reflux, I take Omeprazole but still suffer. (Due a camera down in April)...

Hi Greg & Michael Thanks for you responses. My tinnitus did just start. I woke up one morning to crickets and there was no main cause. No injury or exposure to loud noise. The hospitals all did tests and didn't know why either. A hearing test showed that I was high pitch deaf and it was more...

Hi I'm new to this forum but am a little bit desperate at the moment. I've had chronic tinnitus for over 10 years now. 3 very loud different sounds in both ears constantly. Manage to carry on with everyday life with the odd "bad" day when it got to me too much. Now I have developed pulsatile...

Thanks, yes it would be nice to get rid of this someday :) Maybe there are changes at night because, once asleep, you are truely relaxed?? I don't know.. hmmmh?

Hi Jonathon, Yes it just started for me, no loud noises to set it off, no prolonged exposure to noise, just woke up with it. When I went to the ENT for hearing tests they showed considerable hearing loss over a certain pitch. Said that looking at my hearing test results they would be fitting...
