      Hopefully the neurologists and I can get a proper diagnosis after 3 head scans. Maybe surgery is in my future.

        Best wishes with that. Did your ears & T handle the MRI ok?

        @RunningMan So far so good. I've had CT with contrast and 2 MRIs. So far no changes in my T. My neurologist called and wants to see me next month instead of a January. So we will see what the next step is. How have you been doing?

        Good luck with that. I'm not doing the best lately. Tinnitus seems to be spiking recently, and also day to day anxiety and depression the last 5 days that doesn't fade until evening, after exercise for an hour, when it then slowly improves. So I feel good at the moment.

        @twa I have noticed that right ear drum vibrates to certain noises like a cupboard closing and stuff like that. Do you experience that?

        I fear this as my severe T is due to an MRI

        @brixenbrixen Do you have hearing loss? It seems to be hit or miss with MRIs and T for some people. I'm sorry that happened with you :(

      Do you guys have days where your tolerance just isn't there? Like you just don't have it in you to hear it anymore? What helps you cope?

        Exercise helps with the anxiety/depression for me but actually spikes the tinnitus for quite a while. Sometimes trying to mask it or trying to distract myself with something to focus my mind on helps.

        @Mo8409 Mild high pitch T since I was a teenager (loud concerts, I think). Now, 30 years later, sudden severe increase (due to loud sound exposure and stress, I think).

      It's insane how common tinnitus is and there's no treatment. I meet people almost everyday who have it.

        @AfroSnowman Very good way of explain it. I'd say mine is mild/moderate because it's nonstop.

        I'm not sure if mine is worse. I mean it's not an overwhelming noise level just one that's noticable. Everyone I've talked to can hear theirs 24/7. So honestly I'm not sure unless I'm in their head. I think mine effects me so much right now is because I'm only 2 months in. This is a huge adjustment.

        Right. If I thought about it, I could hear mine pretty much anytime whenever I actually thought about it even back in 2021, like if watching TV. But I could ignore pretty easily. Now it's hard to ignore it over these last 16 months at any point of the day, plus the anxiety, depression, insomnia to go with it. Hopefully it gets easier for you.

      Back at it today. At work pretending everything is just fine. Trying to live a normal life when it's so far from.

        Yeah, it varies night to night, 2hr one night, 6+ another, sometimes I take an antihistimine sleep med at bedtime and often zolpidem sublingual overnight when I can't get back to sleep. Then there's the anxiety and intermittent depression on top of that. Dr. didn't prescribe anything new this year.

        @Mo8409 Much the same here. I'm a microbiology PhD researcher working in labs that are tolerable for the most part. I do frequently work with a bench top whole genome sequencer, however, that sits at an ambient 65 dB. I wear plugs for that, that's about it.

        All the very best, I hope work can continue to alleviate.

        That is good that you can manage work. it will help you with your mental health. I work from home, I am a CBT therapist and can not tolerate going to the office. I am from London.

      Crying today. Not that the static noise was any louder but I think I'm drained. So let the water works flow & pick back up again tomorrow.

      I've been experiencing the same tone since the start, a static noise. Can the sound you hear change? Does it go back to your original tone?

        It can change. My primary loud tinnitus sound is sometimes more of a single tone, other times a hiss, and sometimes more of a broken hiss like a field of distant crickets. And of course, new sounds can come and go, and I have/had those as well.

        Thank you for answering! I'd prefer my static/hiss over that eeee tone. It seemed to of went back to the static. It's quite aggravating when it changes. Gave me a bit of anxiety yesterday. I really appreciate you taking the time to answer.
