Very sorry to hear that @OnceUponaTime. If you wobble your head side to side does it stop for a split second? Clonazepam helped to relax the middle ear muscles which in turn made the sound go away for a while. But more and more it just shuts up for even days at a time and then comes back.

Hi Michael. Like you, I also contracted tinnitus in April 1996. It was the 28th at 1:09 am. I was watching TV when I suddenly began hearing a high-pitched hissing. I though it was coming from the TV, so I muted the volume. It was then I realized the noise was coming from inside my head. A few...

Oh wow. Seriously, wear earplugs when you ride the train. Also, you should try a pizza place called Pizza School. They are everywhere. Definitely try some real Korean food too. There are these restaurants called kimbap cheonguks all over the place. Definitely try some of those. They serve stuff...

Maybe the antidepressant is causing it? Weird how it comes out of the blue.

I have multitone, 7 years and ive never habituated to the tinnitus, probably because it changes and gets progressively worse. So now i just mask it using as low a volume as i can. I have a small fan heater on too mask mid tones, and for bass I use a surround sound system with a recording of...

Thank you for the reply. Since last time I wrote, it has become better. But still there. One of the big reliefs is that at least the sounds are now sounding from inside my ears (now mainly just my right ear), and not from distance which was way more annoying. I've become more suspicious that...

...I have tinnitus from time to time. Sometimes I have a very high pitched steady sound but it never lasts long. My main complaint is a low humming sound that sounds like being on a diesel powered boat. It comes and goes and drives me crazy. At present it is gone. Does anyone have this happen...

Funny thing happened recently. I heard a new kind of humming and thought that I had a new thing going on. Then I looked out the window and there was a car idling in front of my house. So similar. Not so funny is that today my ear cramping issue came back again. I woke up this morning with worse...

I have similar symptoms as well - I had high pitched tinnitus start earlier in the year, followed shortly thereafter by a low frequency car idling / humming sound in one ear that is similar to what others describe on this forum. Oddly, being in louder environments seems to inhibit the hum for a...

It seems I've reached another stage in my 13 month humming/drone journey. This morning when I woke up I noticed my usual (for 13 months now) 4/10 (when in rest) drone would go all the way up to 12 after I spoke a few words to my girlfriend (I have a very low voice). It would die down back to...

Both, separate but primarily together. I have hyperacusis and tinnitus, and this makes the tinnitus spike both temporarily and permanently to low level noise, we're talking fridge humming levels. I'm effectively confined to total isolation, in hearing protection all hours of the day. I usually...

Yes this is brutal sick and horrible. I sometimes get a rumbling noise like my head is almost shaking. If it peaks this early I hope to heaven it dies away, or stops completely. Not months of this terror. As I hear the rumbling, I can pull in low frequency harmonics in other sounds ffs. I hope...

I have all of those same sounds too. I find the lawnmower to be the most infuriating.

I went to a concert last Monday, the 16th, and another one on Tuesday, the 17th. But I didn't notice anything until Saturday, the 21st. The first show was pretty loud, Parquet Courts was the band. The second show wasn't very loud at all, Snarky Puppy was the band. I did some more reading...

I must admit, I spent one evening with my ex girlfriend and when I lied in bed, my tinnitus was at a minimum, I had been off of work for a couple of weeks but it was the first night the new low hum noise disappeared, came back two days later after driving but still. That evevining my tinnitus...

I've had a low-frequency hum, off and on, for over 20 years. I've never habituated to it. When it first started, I had numerous tests done including three MRI's over the years. No cause was ever found, and I had no hearing loss. My hearing is still great for my age (56). Sometimes the humming...

FlyFish. I'm sorry for what you're experiencing. I feel like it's very similar to mine. My T began on Dec 4. Had mild sinus congestion, and was feeling out of sorts, but not very sick, and it passed within the day. Was accompanied by ringing in my right ear, which has always been troublesome on...

Option#1: it's called cochlear hydrops, it should stay a low humming unless it gets worse and you developed vertigo, at that point you have what's called minieres. You can get tested for hydrops at an otologist, only an otologist not an ENT. Option#2: if the sound is like a typewriter in you...

I always end up disappointed when I try to be positive and have hopes about my tinnitus. But well, I'll see the situation in a few weeks.

Hi. Ear started acting weird December 2013. Has been a diva all of 2014. Now being an abusive ****. I have lower frequency hearing loss, with a low to medium pitch loud humming. Occasionally sounds (and feels) like a hurricane is blowing into it. Also, sometimes, all sounds go...

I've had a high-pitched hissing in both ears since April 1996. I'm able to ignore it most of the time. In July 1996, I started hearing a loud, low-pitched hum which is also a physical sensation, like a fluttering or vibration. This sound has caused me major depression, anxiety, and even...

Headache still gone.. must have been the reaction to the Rife. I have to say, it was making me nervous and anxious. I was not wanting another permanent tone to listen to day and night along with the T. My right ear has no tones, humming, shreaking... clear - for now. Hope it lasts. The left...

...why this would be happening as usually it would be the other way around. I can say that at the very start of my tinnitus journey, I had a low humming noise that lasted about a week and it would stop and start. I did notice that when I wore ear muffs in the hearing test, the sound was gone. I...

If I have a good sleep, then when I wake, up at any time 3.30, 6.00. or any other time , often my T is low almost noticeable If I get up then it stays quiet all day long. If I try to get even an extra 5 minutes of sleep instead, it starts ringing again.The same happens when I take a five minute...

Hello everyone, I'm a male late 30s and I live in Denmark. I've been having serious problems with what I perceive as tinnitus and hyperacusis since January 2019. I've been sensitive somewhat to sound for 4 years, following a concussion. I've slept with ear plugs since then, since even the...

@Canyonmom It is indeed very interesting about the plug stopping your tinnitus. My tinnitus started off as a low hum that was on and off for a week then stopped. I noticed when I had a hearing test that week, when I put on the headphones at the audiologist, the tinnitus stopped! I went home and...

...after pushups for me). That sound could turn into something in the back of my head and "floating around" so to speak and quieter when I mask for enough time. I get more beeping and low humming (those drive me ape shit), which are 200% unmaskable. When and how did that wine glass hum start...

I don’t do anything, so I guess I’ve habituated and often can be masked by background sounds. It’s not always the same intensity either and sometimes it goes away when the muscle(s) eventually relax. It’s quite independent from my normal T. Today it’s a low constant hum, not pulsatile. Not...

I have the evil hum/drone...since 2014. 24/7, none stop... loud. If I cover my ears with my hands it stops. If I have other low humming appliances running in the background it stops....I hear it indoors and outdoors equally. So, you think that cutting the tensor tympani may stop the humming?

Yeah, I feel you. At this point I had to try something especially after more trauma to my ears. I took 50 mg of the Prednisone yesterday. It was rough but I got through it, then I started catching a cold so now I’m sick while on Prednisone! My luck right. But I was trying to sleep last night and...

Thanks, this is helpful. Do you know if the device could be helpful for low frequency / humming tinnitus or is this more targeted towards the traditional higher pitched ringing tinnitus?

I’m not so sure it’s pulsatile tinnitus truly. Maybe @Greg Sacramento can help us determine that further. So when an airplane flies over my house or some other low frequency sound, or even the refrigerator, it completely seems to suppress the “tinnitus noises” — it doesn’t seem to be masking...

Almost exactly the same for me. I had resisted taking the vaccine for a long time. Then vaccine passports became a thing and I took the plunge. My tinnitus had become so low in the past few years that I didn’t even research tinnitus as a side effect. I was more worried about myocarditis...

Yeah, basically it can be immediately inhibited by certain level of low sound, it requires different amount depending on how strong it is that day. You may not notice it on holiday at all for example due to outside sound or hotel A/C. Or people who live in NY definitely wouldn't even know if...

...one specifically for tinnitus and have your tried other brands before Starkey? Also, is your tinnitus the type with very high pitch, or with a low humming? My audiologist said I have hearing loss in the high frequency, thus my T is ultra high pitch like a dentist drill with 10 times the pitch.

...not there is tinnitus. Now, could it be caused by Eustachian tube dysfunction? Yes, maybe. I'm sort of in the same boat. I developed a low humming sound during an upper respitory infection. Like your tinnitus, sometimes it "pulses" (but not with my heartbeat), but mostly it's consistent...

I'm kind of the same; mine feels like my brain is humming sometimes, like I couldn't say where it's coming from, it's just "my head". I'm sitting in my audiologist waiting room so I'll mention it!

I've never smoked any kind of weed in my life, and I'm 56 years old. But since my tinnitus returned about a month ago after being absent for 8 months, I'd be willing to try heroin at this point. I have a very loud low-pitched humming that I can physically feel as well as hear (I've posted about...

I've posted this on many other threads, but I also have a loud low-frequency hum. It started from out of the blue in the Summer of 1996. I also have a high-pitched hissing that started a few months earlier, but that rarely bothers me. The humming has gotten so bad over the years that I've...

Hi I started to hear a low frequency humming at home which I was convinced was a resonance from next door caused by a fridge or washing machine, as it seemed to ' swish'. I then heard exactly the same sound in the office when it was quiet. I have experimented with masking the noise and I use an...

...intermittent and no one else could hear it. I had heard of tinnitus of course, but associated that with ringing or buzzing not this very low humming noise. I scoured the house for the source of the noise, maybe some electrical equipment malfunctioning, maybe the furnace motor needing...

Hi guys, thanks for hugging me :-) I have some,mixed hearing loss, some in the lows 0-2khz slight , 3-6khz seem to be ok, 7-8khz moderat, 9-12 khz slight. Tinitus always highpitched, secound tone is changing frequency and is more low. Today humming in the subbasses.....yesterday about...

Heya! Just jumping on this! I have lots of ear issues including this hum/revving drone too. It's so strange because it behaves very differently to my other tinnitus sounds. Example, if I hum, or sit in the car, the hum will dissappear but the other noises remain, and it is more of a feeling...

Your experiences are invaluable, pretty please do share everything you find out: If I remember correctly ,you stopped taking Tegretol and Trileptal because you were getting some unwanted side effects like general head vibrations, correct? When you say "it stopped", do you mean you could just...

@Michael Leigh, I haven’t listened to loud music or had any exposure to noise. i can fully assure you of that. I never do, because I’m paranoid about loud music etc. i wear earplugs when I cut my grass. Trust me, I haven’t been exposed to loud noise. Currently sat up in bed upset despairing...

I turn 60 this year, myself. I have three weddings to attend (including my own) and all I can think about is tinnitus. I had two Pfizer jabs in February and March with no issues. I had a Moderna booster in November, the same time I was testing Paxil for my panic disorder. Three days after the...

Hey I just realized you commented on my thread about my issue ;). Is the low humming the only tone you have?

hi! I’ve been suffering with a low rumbling/humming in my right ear which started about 2 weeks after I got really bad oral thrush last year. The oral thrush has steadily improved over the year, it’s still there but nowhere near as bad as it was. I started with a low rumbling in my right ear...

Diagnosed with my sudden ‘Sensorineural Hearing Loss’ 4 months back (including Tinnitus). It has taken me 3 months to work out that the advice of my specialists and GPs re habituating’ is only a small part of helping myself. I’ve gradually realised that if I don’t ‘protect’ my ears from what is...

Oh...yes I know the sound well. It is probably someone's appliance like a refrigerator. I noticed the new ones are much more humming than older ones. Especially ours!! It is like my brain picks up on these sounds more. In fact one example is this. We have issues with pin hole leaks in...

Your symptoms and experiences are almost identical to mine. (I go into more detail in my post above). I just got home from work, and I can barely hear the humming. But as the night progresses, it will get louder and louder with or without noise exposure. Last night it wasn't that loud when I...

Welcome to the forum, @Wheels73. Sorry that your new low humming T is giving you so much trouble. You have habituated to T before so be positive that you can handle the new ringing sound too. It may just take some time. Hopefully your new sound goes away but if it doesn't people do get used to...

Thank you, Billie. I think if it stays constant (Went into kind of a remission again a couple of days ago, fingers crossed it's gonna stay this way for a while at least), I'll consider severing the muscles first, then anything available. I'm so sorry that you are dealing with SSHL. Are you...

Hello Doc, New here! My first post, but did some reading. If I could get your expertise on this condition that has been bothering me for a while now: The low "humming" bass noise that is new for me (I had the usual high pitch tinnitus with a high frequency hearing loss, and I learned how to...

Hello to all and God bless all who are learning to cope with tinnitus. March 30, 2017 was my first experience. Woke up with low humming and roaring noise in my head. For years I've dealt with chronic sinus, seasonal allergy and and inner ear problems. Had sinus surgery in 1981. The past two...

Im glad it went away for you Carlos1 :) So one day you noticed the humming, went to the doctor and get prednizone and it went away just like that? Since im not feeling too well either i guess i should take a trip to my doctor. But i doubt i will get prednizone just like that. Most of the...

OK, thanks. Bloody hydrops is a new thing to me. Will try to look into it. I didn't really find any direct correlation between good or drink and a hum volume increase. Maybe coffee, but not sure. I did try to drink a lot of water and eat healthy. The hum did vary a little in intensity from time...

Apparently drone is tied to ETD and your symptoms mirror mine in a sense. Sometimes I can get relief of my symptoms when my ETs seem like they are working better.

I am so sorry to hear that your head noise has returned. I am experiencing a relapse since October last year, with what I think may be more intrusive head noise (like a far away gas leak/hissing). At times, it sounds electrical and it really bothers me a lot. It followed a year of a LOT of...

Does yours sound like a low rumble, like at 50-60 Hz in tone? Does it pulsate at times, and when aggravated gets intense with a more continuous sound and more feeling it physically in the ear? Does coming back from driving make it worse, or putting an earplug in the ear and taking it out...
