I've never had a problem with dairy or sodium. Is that just me?

@aot It sucks how there’s even a connection between food consumption and phantom sounds in the first place.

As if T doesn’t suck enough, now I have to be cognizant of everything I eat.

Dairy has that impact on me too.

Not forever, emgee. I used to get food spikes, but not anymore. And even if you do get a food spike, they're pretty much always temporary. Treat yourself sometimes.

@Bill Bauer Hi, Bill. Did you ever experience reactive T/hyperacusis?

I have had hyperacusis for about two years after the onset of my T. My t would also spike following inadvertent exposure to noise. But I don't think it was reactive T, as it is my understanding that with reactive T, T gets louder the louder one's environment...

@Bill Bauer I have T only in one ear. Baseline is tolerable but it reacts to all external sounds. Goes back down once noise ends. It’s like a reactive overlay. Hasn’t improved in nearly 3 months now.

You might experiment with wearing an earplug in that ear...

@Bill Bauer Even inside the house/low-level sounds? I presumed that would increase my sensitivity, and thus, make my T more reactive.
