    Not Walking Normally — Help

    Hey, I've had something I think is caused by the same thing - it's an extremely weird feeling that I'm leaning to the right all the time (mostly it's when I'm walking) it's totally bizarre. I can walk in a straight line and I'm not falling over or even actually leaning when I walk but I have...

    I've Had Enough. Seeing How I Feel at End of Day, Then Checking Out

    Fella have you seen this: Imagine that. Honestly I get what you're saying, it's incredibly frustrating to go from being perfectly healthy to suddenly getting a condition that totally f#cks up yur way of life. I'm suffering from 4 of them at the same time. Imagine having Tinnitus, random...

    Can't Do It

    Oh yeah it's so annoying isn't it when people are just complaining about things which are absolutely nothing. The couple in the room below me were arguing a few days ago and she walked out on him (quite rightly in my opinion ;) and he was all oh this is soooo bad, my whole life is over. It...

    Anyone Here with General Aviation Experience?

    Hey man, just seen this thread, probably way too old by now but you should be okay if you wear a good pair of noise cancelling headsets I think :)

    Aviation Headset Provides Temporary Relief

    Hey, You can get some reasonably cheap these days, David Clarke do some good ones. I'm not sure about oil filled but mine have gel filled pads and are quite comfortable for wearing for quite a long time. I just find that the white noise they generate when turned on is quite a good masker. Hope...

    Can't Do It

    Hey Jon, sorry man didn't mean to be cruel, I'm just going through so many things right now as well as T that I'm being a lot less understanding than I would normally be. When I hear people complaining about somebody cutting them up in traffic or something I just want to say, do you have a...

    Can't Do It

    I'm sorry, I really don't mean to be cruel - I wish you the best man I really do. You just need to recognize though that honestly if that's all you've got then you should consider yourself lucky. It might help if you think of it that way.

    Can't Do It

    Bud I'm not trying to be cruel when I say this, but from last December when I was completely fine I am now battling pain hypersensitivity - pain like you wouldn't believe, some kind of weird problem I've now got moving my arms and legs properly after I took a Tylenol (paracetamol) of all things...

    Not Sad, Just Annoyed... Is That a Good Sign?

    Well I was just about to come on here and say it's been really quiet the last 2 days, and I think that's because I stopped drinking coffee, but then for no reason a couple of hours ago it went back up again. What a weird thing it is. Even if it didn't help with a cure I would love to know just...

    Boston Marathon Bombing Survivors Deal With a Lingering, Invisible Injury — Tinnitus

    "Because severe tinnitus is very rare and only likely to occur in those who are already psychologically imbalanced, the issue of compensation is a questionable one, argues DR SYLVESTER FERNANDES." Oh man that is frickin hillarious. I've always thought I'd never wish T on anyone, but this guy...

    Went to See an Audiologist Today

    Sometimes a single face palm just isn't enough! In my experience it certainly does help to try to stay calm, it gets noticeably worse if you get worked up. I think it's all related to the Central Nervous System somehow. I don't think you're only hearing it because of your emotions though. I...

    Aviation Headset Provides Temporary Relief

    Hi all, Just a tip that might help somebody. I have a set of aviation headsets that have noise cancelling built into them. Unfortunately these only cancel out noise coming from outside the ear, not inside - if I manage to invent a pair that do that rest assured I shall give them away for a...

    Sudden Increase

    Anybody else find that their T will suddenly go from being irritating but kind of bareable to suddenly increase in volume and pitch for no reason at all during the day. It's not that I suddenly started paying more attention to it, it just suddenly increased in volume. It just suddenly increases...

    Not Sad, Just Annoyed... Is That a Good Sign?

    It could well go away completely. I got it back in January from using just standard run of the mill painkillers at the suggested intervals for about 4 days. It took about a month or so but it went to the point were it was so quiet I had to try to listen for it. Then just over a week a go I was...
