    Whoa, a bit of a late reaction. I’ve been trying to avoid this place as I want to keep my mind not occupied with T. I came back just because I’m having a spike which has been going strong for 5 days. Hoping this is just something temporary because I was doing so well the weeks before. How have you been? Have you noticed any relief in your T? Are you still doing rescue work in helicopters?

    Hey, that’s no good. Has it settled? My T has improved but I have good and bad days. My TTTS symptoms have subsided but still come on every now and then. I’m dealing with it all better but still have down days. Nope I have had to leave my job. Think it’s for the best.

    I’m glad to hear things have improved for you. If you continue to improve the good days will become the new bad days and you will experience even better good days. Quitting your job must have been hard. Did you manage to find anything new? Do you still have hyperacusis?

    It was I don’t have any other skills because it’s so unique I have to start again. Yeah still have it not as bad. But things got a lot worse before they got better. Every now and then now. Nope still job hunting. Been just over 6 months since my injury. And now I have a new noise in that ear a beeping noise like pressing buttons on a microwave, very weird. How are you going? Has it settled? Any other symptoms?

    How did you get the new noise? Were you exposed to loud volumes somewhere? Is it constant or only occassionally? My spike has settled, but it was the longest one I’ve ever had. I thought it was going to be permanent, but after about 2 weeks it went down.

    I’m now 9 months in, but I’m still noticing improvement. Sometimes I can go out in my backyard in the morning and I can only just barely hear my tinnitus. I live in a rural area, so there’s little environmental noise and it feels really good. It builds up as the day goes on, but even in the evening it’s not as loud as it used to be.
