Same! Woke up this morning and it was screaming.

going to give the cleaning a miss great

@Julien87 Nope. Normal feeling.

@Bill Bauer I hope so :) getting impatient..

Glad to hear that, hopefully your h will improve over time and soon you will be able to start music again. : )

I feel your pain, I thought I would never again listen to some of the music I love, but it's been easing since I was on Amitriptylene and I have a lot less trouble now. I can handle Pink Floyd again but probably never go back to Motorhead!

Yes! I know that feeling

Bro, you can maybe start planning out for your next music project while your ears takes a rest, and don’t overthink about stuffs and meanwhile, go do some exercise; summer is getting close, you gotta start working on abs again my g!!

@Yugal Rai thanks man. That is a good idea.

I've had that at times my whole life

@HeavyMantra I've had sometimes too but not this badly. It is stronger after I got T.

Same for me. Or maybe it's just that I freak out about it more now

@Jack Straw you can find it with name Project Sirius. I also have a website www.projectsirius.com you can listen some music there.

Stuff sounds good and professional!

@Jack Straw thank you :)

Is it bad day today?

@Yugal Rai Better T today, but mentally not so much.

That's normal - there are going to be ups and downs in the journey before it gets better. Hang in there!

@Tanni I guess so. I was feeling better for few days but today I've had terrible migraine and T seems louder as well. All this because I wanted to make my new track sound better. I appreciate the support :)

It takes about 8-12 months.

@Bill Bauer I would be happy with 2. It's just my ears did warn me beforehand but I still kept going. I thought the white noise was coming from my headphones. Well. I am feeling better than week ago.

Congrats :)

Get some.

This forum is very important. Most healthcare providers will tell you not to come here. They do so with good intentions, mainly. They just don't want you to start focusing too much on T or the symptoms.

At the same time, most people in your normal life probably don't have T, or at least T that's debilitating. The camaraderie and experience of other sufferers is the only way I've learned much beyond the nonsense of the BTA.

It is normal to cry. My ENT said that her patients who cry are always tinnitus patients.

Why are you avoiding normal levels of sound? How loud in DB is “normal levels”?

Omg, That’s literally me.. I find it frustrating sometimes..

@Jack Straw the sound level of a being in a mall for example. I am not avoiding.

You should try to avoid music, I know it´s hard, been almost 4 weeks now, no TV either for 4 weeks.

@SashaG yes, I was just curious. It was very low volume.

Nice to hear you can live well with your T :) I am still learning to cope with mine since right now at least, I lost my hobby (music), so it was big change into my life...

I think it´s also stress related, I mean we are musicians, it´s terrifying to know that our hearing could be damaged. You need to hang in there and keep your body strong!

Hey there! Did you take the full dose of pseudoephedrine?

Asking because the doc prescribed me some too, and would like to know if it made your ringing worse?

@Hyperanium at first it sounds maybe bit louder but not much. It's safe to take.

Same.

Same... stupid brain :(

@Striveon it hurt the face like hell. But I tried and the hissing away for that moment. It didn't make it better. :(

I think this is somatic tinnitus. Physio might be worth a shot. Search for physiotherapy and tinnitus in the forum, I wrote a post

I have my 1st physio appointment today...worth a shot..

I actually love computer fans, or more appropriately, hard drive spinning noise. When I switched to SSDs the white noise from my desktop dropped enough to not really mask very well anymore.

My old computer's fan is so quiet. The new computer is horrendous!! I do'nt understand. Same brand...
