    Has anyone had any luck with adding vitamin D3, Taurine, Lipoflavonoid, or NAC to their daily regimen? If so, how long to take effect for a positive result?

    Can hyperacusis ever recede or go away? Anyone with experience here?

    As in everything just sounding too loud? Yeah, that should fade with time, it's a really slow process but it'll happen.
    It's only when you start getting a lot of pain in the mix things get iffier but even that usually improves to some degree.

    Its much more common for hyperacusis to get better, or to even recede, than tinnitus thats gone into the so called chronic stages (6 months +). BUT, going back to the same lifestyle you had before (if you loved loud music, clubs, concerts and such) is a bit of a gamble. Your auditory and nervous system has been compromised one way or another. Just a word of advice.

    Hello! Im about 7 weeks in from the onset of Tinnitus and Hyperacusis. Yesterday was a "good" day for me and I was able to distract with "ocean sounds" on my earbuds at a level of 12 on the volume. Today is much louder tinnitus and not a good day at all and have to turn my ocean sounds to a volume of 30 to even compete with the ratio of tinnitus to ocean sounds yesterday. How could it be that yesterday my tinnitus was "acceptable" and today much louder? I was happy that it was a sign of my tinnitus subsiding, but today I am wondering? Im not sure what to do some days its very loud, leaving me confused, scatterbrained, sad, and my nerves shot. Any advice on how to combat this tinnitus thing? Any advice is much appreciated - thank you all so much!

    Tinnitus is unpredictable.

    It's not recommended to use earbuds if you have tinnitus. Try other masking methods instead.

    Masking always spikes mine. I don't bother with it. Be careful with the volume on those earbuds. It's dangerous territory.

    You can put something on in background—on a good quality speaker and not headphones/earbuds—at a low volume, not to mask it, but to just give you something else to focus on. I only really do this at night. I'll turn on the TV at a low volume and just listen to it to help me fall asleep.

    If you can get your tinnitus stable and not vary in volume day-to-day, you'll most likely get used to it, and it won't be as much of an issue.
