I have like a tensed feeling in my ears and around my ears.. will it go away?

@sakrt It can be reattached and saw many that happening when doing it with blade instead of using a laser. Santos only uses laser.

@Flowergirl I totally understand, please don't drink, you don't want to bring more harm your way. I suffer from tinnitus but had other health issues now and is hell to be honest.

Thank you so much Bud @in_LA

Not well, I keep getting worse in my entire general health and having more things and is difficult. Is just an agony

Thank you got asking

I'm asking too. You've been a strong person to me. I felt you have my back.

Not doing good, yes suffer from severe neck and TMJ issues for 2 years. Doing nucca and PT so neck a little bit better but not great

@NYCGuy how's the cymbalta treating you?

Thank you @Rockman

is the Cymbalta helping @NYCGuy? I was just reading about it last nite. Someone else mentioned gabapentin. Also the drug Ebselen that I was turned down on for clinical trial has glutathione in it. It's available OTC.

I had 4 sessions of chiropractic care and will be doing for the next few months. So far, I can say that it improved my tinnitus, I only get like one or 2 thumps after burping. , but I noticed that I get ticking sound like that of a clock when laying down not sure if its because of my neck and spine is in the process of aligning. Sorry for my english but thought id give some update. Hopefully you are all well!!

So happy for you @Kjforever , you did regular chiropractor or type like upper cervical one?

@NYCGuy the upper cervical one

Some people do nothing and after time goes away. Other do magnesium and COQ10, other do potassium or vitamin B.
Some many different causes it seems and surgery needs to be done for sure with laser to be successful. Even with surgery few still have the vibrations and end doing medications as Cymbalta

I just started 15 days ago, so I can't be much help. I still suffer from MEM and is driving me crazy. Two days ago I had an episodes for 6 hours straight. Not getting better but worse for me at least @Kjforever

There is still hope, I talk to a lot of people and they get better with time as other don't and get surgery etc @Kjforever

I have TTTS is thumps, I do have pulsatile tinnitus for over a year but that's totally different. I have Pulsatile Tinnitus, regular Tinnitus and now MEM/TTTS that's like ear vibrating and thumping after yawn,burp or stretch @Kjforever

How was your Monday ? I called out for Tues and Wednesday, I've been a nervous wreck lately.

Hanging in there, I need to continue with work I can't have days off, my struggle is a night because my TTTS happens while I sleep mostly and during the day is not that bad @in_LA I hope the 2 days off helps, try to do something fun.

What about TMJ/neck massage? Relaxing the muscles around the ear may help a little, and even if it doesn’t, it feels nice.

Doing that, plus NUCCA and PT @makeyourownluck feel better but I have very severe neck and tmj issues

I see @NYCGuy, no doubt you know how these things go by now.

Your anxiety will be increasing muscle tension. Try break the cycle somehow. Easier said than done I know. Do anything you find relaxing/distracting.

Really hope it calms down soon.

hanging in there @in_LA , the thumps are less now thanks god.

@NYCGuy "EME"? What is that? I don't believe I recognize that abbreviation...

Mistake @silentnight is MEM.

That can be great. I think mine is cause by TMJ for sure @Mal25 I hope we get better soon

@NYCGuy Dr. Maksim Shapiro, MD Neurology , located in NYU Langone Medical Center. I’ve believed he’s dealt with tinnitus patients. He seems well liked.

Thank you @tracyNYC

Thank you @ZFire

Please try everything possible, there are so many things to try to help us out. We have to keep fighting and not give up.

Agree. Of course its hard but everyday is closer to healing, a treatment or the cure. You aren't alone..no matter how bad it is - we all understand the hard battle you are in. Keep trying to figure out how to keep staying alive!

Many expensive doctors, MRI, CT Scans, I went to Neurologist, TMJ specialist, several ENT, Pain doctor, Neck Pain, did NUCCA, Physical Therapy etc

Didn't your insurance pay for these? Why not?

I know @KP26

Any chance that the vibration is a result of yiu accidentally irritating your ears, then goes away once you stop doing it?

No ar all, show at of the blue while sleeping. No idea what happen, but this thumping is driving me crazy @tniuf

@Steph1710 Those I can live with, I think somehow I got used it to it but the new vibrations on my good ear is driving me crazy.

@NYCGuy ah yes, the ol’ vibrations. Don’t worry, I have that too. Weird to think before 2018 I had no ear problems whatsoever. Those little bastards are buggered now. Seriously, life is a lil bitch. Hopefully you’ll get used to the vibrations too.

@Steph1710 how you described vibration? I can't find what is destroying my ears and I have so many issues and this last one the vibration is putting me on the edge.

Hope you get better as well. Sorry nothing works right now

I'm sorry your suffering has reached a point where it is overshadowing everything you've once considered worth living for. The other commenters are right, of course there is hope and of course there is a chance of improvement, but the tinnitus hell you're forced to live with is an unbelievable challenge as well - all day, every day -

and only you can decide whether this is just a temporary low or if you have truly reached your limits. I don't have to tell you to think this through carefully because I'm sure you already have. Whatever you decide I wish you all the courage in the world because one decision is as hard as the other, all the best!

OTO-313 WORKED,perhaps the study was defective, even so it is not a regenerative medicine, it is not regenerative, there are regenerative medicines,just around the corner, let,s not lose hope.

I've managed to avoid it thus far but I know it's inevitable.

How are you feeling ?

I know 3 people with it right now. 1 has a headache 1 has what feels like a cold. The other is on the rebound. I think if u had shots it's not as severe. Don't be scared you are already tough as h*ll.

Hey @NYCGuy Went to high point yesterday. Its the best park I’ve been to thus far. I made to the high point monument and wow the view is gorgeous. Thanks for letting me know about this park.

I'm so happy you enjoyed it @ZFire. I went few backs to green lake in upstate NY and WOW, IS BEAUTIFUL. The same with finger lake and Onedia lake, great fishing.

Yeah i saw the picture. Wow had no idea NY waters could be that blue.

@RachLouise Seems my first message got deleted, I mentioned I did NUCCA and PT and vitamins, diets, etc but so far nothing has help me on the T. Nucca and PT did help with my TMJ and Neck pains.

Sorry if I'm not seeing your previous comments, I'm useless at this site. Did you try an occlusal splint?

@RachLouise just saw your last message. I didn't, I don't know if will help.

I think we all did, but I heard a few of them but two were really really loud. I even disconnect my work computer just in case lol.

https://www.nbcnewyork.com/weather/thunder-boom-wakes-nyc-area-monday-morning-heres-why-it-was-so-loud/3671075/

@ZFire I'm in NJ, to be honest next to Manhattan but it sound so so loud. I'm around in front of central park, when looking from NJ.

I'm so happy to hear you are doing better, this thing seems take long time to get use to it or heal itself, I have high hope at least one of the clinical trials will work for us. @ZFire

Thank you @Wrfortiscue

@NYCGuy if you are getting along mostly without T during the day I'm so happy to know that.

OTIC is the stock name,
@Wrfortiscue

Thanks man!

Yep, I've got OTIC and I'm probably gonna buy more given it's previous peak and just based off it's current price.
