    Road Noise

    I just put cotton balls in my ears. They are good for road noise, at least for me :) Worth trying.

    Yes, there are dozens notched files, but I haven´t found one with two notched frequencies (5900 and 8200 Hz). I´d just like to try that.

    Making Notched White Noise, Help Needed

    Hi, I´d like to try notched white noise with my two main tinnitus frequencies 5900 and 8200 Hz. I have tried Tinnitusnotch.com and it seems to help me a little bit, but you can´t add more than one frequency there. Could someone help me with this? I am not a pro with computers, so if someone...

    How Loud Is a Room Full of People Clapping?

    If one person clapping is around 70 dB, ten would be 80 dB and a hundred 90 dB. There shouldn't be need for steroids. Even if it was 100 dB, there shouldn't be anything more than a spike. I took steroids for a week ago and while it helped to calm down my t, now it's back with full force. And I...

    Bad Luck This Week

    Bad Luck This Week

    Loud Tinnitus for Two Years

    I think antibiotics may have something to do with the increase (cipro, one time big dose) Or dental drilling (five times during the last two months). I have had two very loud days a week, two "good" (not-so-intrusive days) and the rest somewhere between. Now it's like five loud days and two ok...

    Loud Tinnitus for Two Years

    Loud Tinnitus for Two Years

    I have had tinnitus for two years now, after a loud indoor concert. My t is very loud, has multiple tones and frequencies and my main tone fluctuates a lot. My T is also reactive to sounds. My left ear is worse, but the right one has been worsening a lot lately. I can hear my T everywhere, very...

    Popping and Pressure

    Could be Tensor tympani muscle related problem. Sounds like popcorn or morse code and is objective, so it can be heard by others. I had it for a while.
