    Tinnitus Aggravated by a Cold

    Yes but these were loud concerts which I went to occasionally. What did as much damage was going out running or cycling when it was windy.

    Tinnitus Aggravated by a Cold

    Not really unexpected loud sounds but I am trying to live to a certain degree while also being extremely cautious. Yes nothing masks my tinnitus so sleeping is becoming more difficult.

    Tinnitus Aggravated by a Cold

    Sorry to hear about your cold. I am dreading getting a cold as last time two years ago I ended up having a permanent spike in my good ear.

    How to Quantify the Loudness of One’s Tinnitus?

    I am trying to mediate but it’s difficult to concentrate as the tinnitus is so loud. I will continue though.

    Yeah you are right. I can see three potential issues with side effects. Initial phase of Finasteride then tapering off plus the long term psychological effects. Oh well just have to get used to going bald sometime in future which will hurt.

    Can’t Function at a High Level Anymore

    I have my own business and work from home but hats off to those that are in employment that have to deal with incessant noise and tinnitus in the background. I don’t think I have the mental strength to cope with working over 8 hours outside the home. While my tinnitus is so so loud if I am...

    Just wondering why you came off Finasteride was it due to the side effects. Did it help you with your hair loss ? My client does hair transplants and he actually recommended this to me.

    Many thanks for the detailed response. Yes while it is tempting - it probably not worth it. Anyway, at my age probably nothing to gain from it apart from vanity and health is more important than anything. I think I will just have to say goodbye to my hair. I have very loud tinnitus and...

    Tinnitus and Hyperacusis from Deadlifting: New to All This

    I have been seeing a chiropractor as I have been getting tension headaches due to hyperacusis. He found some tightness and knots on the right side of my neck. It is a long shot but hoping it can reduce the hyperacusis. I do think that, for some, fixing the neck may alleviate some of the impact...
