What are you finding helps with your TTTS? My noise threshold is lower for my middle ear than my inner ear, it feels like everything is aggravating it.
@haha ear go eeee Honestly I’ve not found anything that correlates to it being better or worse. I take magnesium every day and have for months but haven’t noticed it doing anything, but I still take it. I think time is the biggest factor for me. Mine is likely due to anxiety though and not noise exposure or acoustic trauma
Also, if it's easing in severity or disappearing altogether, that means things are heading in the right direction (and the ear is on the mend), even if the symptoms recur every now and then.
Mine comes and goes, even when i'm not around loud noises. The more i longer i wear earplugs in a day the more likely ill have it when i take them out. But also same thing happens if i'm around a lot of louder noises like yelling and babies screaming.
I had this happen on one occasion back in Feb/Mar 2022 when one of my co-workers to my left would speak to a group of us in a room, my left ear fluttered. Maybe 20 minutes before I left. Never happened again until yesterday, over 1 yr later, and it happened while listening to a podcast here but not until I had been listening for quite a while. Same thing - speaking on padcast made left ear flutter. Weird.
I don't normally sit and listen to podcasts at my computer, so that was unusual. No unusual noise exposure or unusual earplug use. My anxiety and depression levels are up recently, though - maybe a factor.
@RunningMan Mine seems to come and go. I know that anxiety and TTTS are closely associated, and for me I think it’s probably the cause or a huge contributor. So that may be the case for you too. I know other people develop it from ear trauma though, but stress can definitely exacerbate it.
