    Does Hearing Loss Keep Getting Worse?

    ...rate, or are there no such rule? I'm really curious. And also, does the T get worse with more hearing loss? I guess it does. That's why some docs recommend hearing aids, yes? If anybody here is suffering from tinnitus due to hearing loss, how much has your hearing reduced over the past years?

    From Darkness to Light, How I Recovered from Tinnitus & Hyperacusis

    ...but this reminds me I should go in and have things checked. They're the ones who made my two sets of custom earplugs and who got me my hearing aids. I chose them because they work a lot with professional musicians and understand the unique challenges. → https://rkaudiology.com/ What did...

    Suicidal

    Don't give up. I've had tinnitus for 30 years. I know hearing aids don't work for everybody, but they have been a miracle for me.

    Customizable Sound Therapy Pitch in a Tinnitus Noiser/Masker/Hearing Aid?

    I do not have hearing loss. However, I use Oticon hearing aids that have built-in sound generators for tinnitus therapy. My audiologist disabled the hearing aids via computer, so these devices operate purely as sound generators for tinnitus and hyperacusis if it is present. These devices...

    Hearing Aids

    ...Not sure why it does that. I don't get 8/10 days these days. Today, my non-reactive hiss has been a 7 all day, and I've been wearing my hearing aids all day. I don't think the perception of it drops so dramatically. It goes to about a 5. However, if I listen to ambient nature noises like...

    ...stable and no hyperacusis? Lots of hope for you. I have been doing sometimes better, sometimes worse. Still recovering from a terrible spike from using hearing aids for an hour to play some crickets. Working now, which is tough, but helps divert attention from this horror. Still grieving.

    Hearing Loss and Severe Tinnitus — From Loving Life to Suicidal in 2 Months

    Hearing Loss and Severe Tinnitus — From Loving Life to Suicidal in 2 Months

    ...somewhere in one of the papers that your condition could be surgically corrected (quite successfully), if it comes down to it. I tried hearing aids a few months ago but they didn’t work for me. My mild hearing loss in left ear is between 4000 and 8000 Hz; my tinnitus frequencies are way...

    Six Months Ago My Hearing Was Normal — Now I Have Significant Hearing Loss

    No, I have not tried them, as all my hearing problems stem from severe hyperacusis. Hearing aids are also not recommended when hearing is very good at lower frequencies and worse (mild - moderate hearing loss) at high frequencies. The brain would have a hard time adjusting to the hearing aids...
