It has been a little over a week since the injections now. Sadly my tinnitus is not gone but I have had a few quieter days here and there - and unfortunately a spike today, but not sure if it was caused by something else (poor sleep, noise exposure at work). I will say the ringing tinnitus...

I stopped taking the YKS for a day or two after some wonderfully quiet days and had a huge spike today. I'm not sure if it's related or just noise exposure at work, but either way, I'm taking it again!

Very interesting! I'd be interested to try another formulation as well. I'm planning a trip there (unrelated to the tinnitus), possibly later this year... I wonder if I should try seeing a doctor while I'm there.

I've been meaning to update here, thanks for the reminder. I am still taking this and I do genuinely believe that it helped me lower my volume overall - but not a total "cure" yet unfortunately, and I think I've plateaued in terms of reduction with YKS. It lowered my volume quite a bit but not...

So I'm less than 48 hours in, too soon to really give any sort of results but I will say it did not cause any sort of tinnitus spike for me, so no adverse effects so far. I'll also positively add the procedure was near painless; it hurt less than getting my ears pierced :cool: My tinnitus was...

YOLO. I got mine today lol. I will let you all know if there's any improvement! I had it done by a dentist.

I'm considering masseter Botox and have made an appointment - any updates from anyone here?

An update: I FINALLY got my next shipment of this. Unfortunately due to the delay I was not expecting such a gap in treatment and it's basically starting over, and I'm for whatever reason not getting the same level of relief I got when I was taking this before - but I don't know if there's...

My tinnitus started in October and at the time I thought it was just a sinus infection and wasn't about to cancel an already-paid-for-no-refunds overseas trip. I flew 12 hours overnight - my ears were tortured on the way there but a really good night's rest made it back to a baseline the next...

Hey thanks so much for this - just ordered some. I already drink Turmeric tea from time to time but I don't love the taste haha, so this seems easier.

Yes, I'm in the US and I ordered it here. I was in Japan a few months ago and wish I'd heard of it then, I'd have brought a ton back lol because this price online is very marked up plus the shipping fee is high :( but still if it helps, it helps! The powder might be more affordable but I...

Wow, I didn't get tinnitus from noise exposure (well, that I know of...) but you've described the sound/rhythm of mine perfectly. I've talked to doctors about it and they ask if it's in time with my pulse and I've always been like "kind of...?" Yeah, it's like a smoother ebb and flow. I've been...

Do you have any tips for how to find/vet for a therapist who'd understand and be empathetic to these issues? I feel like so many of us have experienced really unempathetic responses from various healthcare providers, I'd like to consider therapy (for tinnitus and also probably other underlying...

Effects of Yoku-kan-san on undifferentiated somatoform disorder with tinnitus Yokukansan is a Japanese Kampo traditional medicine, comparable to Traditional Chinese Medicine, but... is readily available packaged over the counter in drugstores in Japan! It seems moreso marketed towards people...

I've read that as well, but it's been like pulling teeth to try and get an endocrinologist to agree that there's a possible connection lol. I went to get my blood levels checked last Friday so we'll see what happens with that, no immediate results yet. Hashimoto's disease is really weird and...
