      Oh wow. Enjoy the silence was my favorite song before this infliction too. Too bad I can't listen to it without bursting into tears anymore...

        Yes, I can comprehend. Same here. But it keeps me believing that one day, T is lower or gone and I can "Enjoy silence" again. My favorite song is now everything with crickets. :-)

      Hi Martin, curious on what caused your T? Noise/Injury/ototoxic/disease?

        Hi Markku,
        This is really nice from you. Thank you.
        I also wish you all the best for this year and all years coming.
        Let's hope we will find silence again one day.
        Maybe this new device from Susan Shore will help somehow.
        I am still struggling a lot - depending on loudness.
        I hope you are ok and can deal with T most of the time.
        Take care,
        Martin

      T on 10/10 today. Louder than shower and my crickets. Trobalt 200 mg helps for some hours (makes me dizzy and seems lowering the volume).

        @Martin69, I wonder if part of your high volume noise is related to stress? I had pre-existing anxiety/depression before tinnitus and am under a lot of stress currently. My noise seems to switch ears at times and goes to my head too. I didn't have the courage to try Trobalt, thought it was too dangerous.

        @Martin69, Could be cervical compressed nerves possibly also. I don't know if you had any neck issues before. Inner ear, brain, neck etc.-- how do you know?

        @Martin69, maybe try some Allegra as you may have some allergies causing ETD. That's what I'm trying currently and so far so good. We have 2 cats and live in a old farm house. Don't want to get too optimistic though. Have to keep experimenting.

        I had my car stolen once. Cops banging on my door at 2am... saying "someone just stole your car and we are in pursuit of him". Buddy got away lol. Found car abandoned later on with ignition damaged and fender damage. Older car though

        Martin, I feel for you man! When I lived in NYC, I had a few Acura's, they tried to steal. If I would caught them, I'd shoot to kill!

        A6, nice wheels! Unfortunately, it doesn't pay to have nice cars anymore.

        I wish we could all meet and spend some time together. That's, Martin, Richard, Dan, Telis and all the rest with severe T. We could hoist a few cocktails and share our stories. If only we could beam ourselves to NYC. I know some kick ass bars and great places to eat!
