@VeryUnfortunate I’ve never taken it for a spike.

@Steph1710 It seems that people do not really take it for spikes. It's more about the unknown and doing everything you can before it's too late. You feel me?

Yeah, I feel ya. :) I was just saying that I have never used it for a spike. I would always take the chance that it will get better on it’s own. Even with my monstrous spike, I never took it. But, it’s a gamble, like you say. *shrugs*

@VeryUnfortunate I think it depends on what caused the spike. Do you know?

@Stacken77 No clue. Might've been when I was talking to my friends for a few hours or when I was talking to my loud parents. Either that or Ambien. Hard to say but I've had the steroids on hand since the beginning of the spike but I've been hesitant on taking it

I would hold off on steroids. Just temporary relief for a risk of more tones. Just my opinion

Did it spread to the other one?

I simply have a cheap external microphone laying in front of me and using speakers. Communication software like Discord seems to filter out the speaker output from my microphone nicely, so it have worked pretty well so far.

I'm actually pretty comfortable with my baseline, hopefully ebselen can kill other tones + spikes

Go to an eye doctor, maybe you just need glasses?

Yeah it is, tends to follow T. Noone knows why.
I had it previous but mine got markedly worse following T.
That said....I don't "suffer" with VS.

@Matchbox I think I might've had it before as well. It has gotten a lot better since I last mentioned it. It is definitely easier to cope with mild visual snow rather than mild tinnitus imo

Many effects are not permanent when leaving the medication back to normal.

Yup, same here

Same here... as long as I don't move my head or get out of bed. Sometimes I stay in my bed longer in the morning just so my T remains quiet a little longer.

@Syb I find myself doing the same thing. Sometimes the best part of my day is going back to sleep so I can wake up again and feel the relief

The golden advice given to me was that; if one area of your life is a bit shit, focus on improving another area to even it out. Good work!

I experienced sound sensitivity, i dont know if it was hyperacusis but every sound hurt a lot for about 2 weeks since T started. then it slowly got adjusted (i was purposely exposing myself to some sounds so i dont be in full silence all the time) and then within a month the sensitivity went away and now its just ringing.

1-2 years.

it didnt help me at all

I’ve seen 2 so far when it comes to reactivity and H. Should we get a post poll going? There must be a better way to get consensus

Search this site. I know I had posted here about my HBOT experience.

Have you searched for threads on HBOT on the forum? I know there has been mixed reviews for it. I believe the general consensus is not to try it, unless it's only been like 24 hours before your tinnitus started - I think otherwise, it's no good, and can actually make it worse. BUT, I'm only saying that from what I remember reading - I could be wrong.
