  • Going to movies: Part 2. Let's see how it goes this time.
    S
    @Jack Straw I forgot them at home. I would have used them this time because the movie was too loud at times. But I survived it. I'll see tomorrow morning if my ears are sensitive again.

    How are they today?
    S
    @COYS Surprisingly good! Only slight increase in H and its normal now. No increase in T or anything. There has been improvement. Since last time I was in movies, my ears felt worse after.
    I need to do one audio track but how? How can I do it if my ears can't handle making it? So F-ING depressed lately. N
    S
    Seriously need to think about going to TRT. I miss making my music so much.

    I am so sorry what you are going through, I've been there it can take 10-12 months to heal. TRT has logical flaws as it does not seperate pain hyperacusis from loudness hyperacusis, and failed to show any difference then regular sound therapy. TRT is the equal of treating nerve damage with massage therapy, it helps relieve symptoms but it's not good treatment. Do proper homework before considering it.
    H
    It's weird, this has got to be a very common problem for musicians. But I don't find much about it online. I have no idea how to get back to making music. Maybe I won't be able to
    Tried to make some music. Not good. My H got bit worse after that, but my T stayed "normal". And I had very low volume on my speakers....
    S
    I gotta try What I am cabable of,but be careful with it. I managed to create a beautiful melody..
    COYS
    Was it the frequencies that didnt agree with you or the volume?
    S
    @COYS it's the frequencies. The volume is not that loud. But my monitor speakers have very bright treble. I need to let my ears heal even more. Now my hyperacusis is worse again. I has to be physical issue within ear. It's like broken bone. Feels fine as long as you don't use it.
    I went to audiologist. Now I had a proper hearing test in soundproof booth and I have perfect hearing up to 8khz :)
    S
    Unfortunately they don't do over 10khz test.

    Cool to hear! Welcome to the club, did two tests in last 2 months in different booth, both went with "perfect" hearing results ... shi**y hidden hearing loss...
    Movie over... Still alive and my T seems same as it used to. No spikes during movie and no need for earplugs.
    COYS
    Glad you enjoyed it!

    When did you go to the movies?
    S
    @Ken219 Today. I went to see aladdin. I did not use earplugs at all. And now I am back at home and my T is unaffected.
    Going to movie this weekend... I wonder if I am ready.
    I can hear almost 17khz with my headphones on. But i cannot hear 13,5khz well at all.
    Ivkopivko
    That's great result. I'm allright accross all spectre but at 15.3xx, It cuts off or I need to increase the volume much to hear above
    S
    @Ivkopivko I have to turn up volume too to hear that high.
    Turned up volume bit too high when I tested my hearing, felt bad. But I heard up to 16khz!
    COYS
    I think 16khz is pretty good for your age. I'm 30 and can hear 16khz on my right and 15khz in my left
    Sevv
    @COYS: exactly the same for me! Hearing is fine, guess there must be some nerve damage that causes the T.
    COYS
    @Sevv it must be why I get the pain that I get too
    Silent day, loud day, silent day, loud day... Why? I was sitting on my chair and suddely T got much louder.
    Bill Bauer
    How long did that spike last? Minutes or hours?
    S
    @Bill Bauer I wouldn't call it a spike. Suddenly my T just got louder while sitting in chair. But it wasn't spike.
    Bill Bauer
    Sounds like it was fleeting T (that had lasted for less than a minute). It might be your body trying to recalibrate and heal itself.
    Why computer fans make my ears go crazy? They are very low volume. I have one of the most silent fans available. Noctua.
    another sean
    I have Noctua's as well, even the latest revisions, but still spike my t.
    S
    @another sean Yeah I changed my cpu cooler to noctua and took 2 noisy fans out from my computer. Still it's hard for me to sit near computer.
    another sean
    I put my Mac in my closet and my gaming PC in another room and use long cables.
    Small pleasures feel like heaven these days. Things I never enjoyed that much before T. Like chocolate yogurt. It's heaven in my mouth.

    Food is a major pleasure to me now. Well.....it also were before T., but even more so now. Food = life
