This is great that natural sound therapy helped you. I was talking to an experienced audiologist and she said that the best proven thing for TTTS is CBT and techniques to reduce anxiety and stress. Also gradual reintroduction to natural sounds and not over-using sound protection (i.e. only using...

I don't come around here much, but I did want to sound off on Carbamazepine. I started taking it a year or so ago as I developed MEM/TTTS on top of my tinnitus, which sucks. After months, my ENT mentioned Carbamazepine could help, and I've tried it. It doesn't affect my tinnitus at all, but it...

CBT today with an audiologist/therapist. Possible acoustic shock caused hyperacusis and TTTS (underlying ETD/TMD meant ears more vulnerable)

I’m gonna leave tips on what I did to heal some of my symptoms Incase I disappear one day and someone needs info. I’ll start with (TTTS)

...are days now where my hyperacusis and tinnitus are nearly non-existent or mild enough to overlook. While I still experience days of intense pitch, I'm actively countering the reactivity with the use of pink noise. (Onset reactive tinnitus, dysacusis, loudness hyperacusis, mild noxacusis, and...

...no longer drowns it out. I was also left with sound distortion (everything sounded brassy and shrill, no warmth), aural fullness, ear popping/TTTS, and sound sensitivity. I was also deafened and it was hard to hear my own voice. And hear anything against background noise. Yet, like many here...

I have the same pills. On the package it says "Lupin Ltd." I don't know if the pills are legitimately from that company. Maybe I will contact the actual company at lupin.com to ask whether they still manufacture Flupirtine. Wish I could give you some advice about your situation...

Hello all, I'm new to hyperacusis since end of June. It has been gradually getting worse. It started as reactive tinnitus to certain external sounds (my own voice - especially with earplugs in- , other people's voices, cars, dogs, doors closing, toilet flushing etc.)... Once the external sound...

I have a GABA issue due to Fluoroquinolone intoxication + Mirtazapine messing up with my Serotonin causing my tinnitus and hyperacusis along with TTTS. It has improved so much from the beginning but the progression stopped and it's been like this for months. My ex-girlfriend, who is in...

No, he has carried out this procedure a lot for MEM, TTTS and maybe other conditions that would warrant a tenotomy. And 99% of the cases have been without any side effects. Not necessarily successful. Basically implying it's low risk to give it a go. But only because my situation is so dire. It...

...L-Threonate off Amazon (I'll double the dosage and split it day and night) and 100-200 mg Gabapentin at night. The Magnesium is helpful for the TTTS/muscular component of this and the Gabapentin for sleep, rest, overall CNS relaxation as well as nerve pain. The last pieces of my toolkit...

Inner ear vibrations have been getting worse. Worse w/ sound exposure but also under a lot of stress. It’s opposite of how TTTS described..

You are a new case. Rest your ears, get silence and don’t take meds. Whatever you do, just don’t do TRT, lol. Things will most definitely calm down but you do need to be patient. Wish I had done this earlier but I kept making my noxacusis worse. Sorry, that’s a crappy way to get noxacusis...

TTTS has been back again the past few days but esp. today. Trying to remind myself that it’s settled before many times, and it can again.

How can you be pretty certain it's false? There are 8 billion people on earth, of those 1 in 7 people have tinnitus. If all of those people got worse, then Tinnitus Talk would be inundated and you would hear about tinnitus everywhere in the real world. Once again, this is your experience, not...

...can lead to hyperacusis or noxacusis as well. I can certainly say that my tinnitus is much worse than 20 years ago, plus it's more variable now, and now have hyperacusis and TTTS in recent months. Also, low-frequency tinnitus started a few years back, which hasn't improved but varies in...

...At least not yet. I'm currently trying to find an ENT who will inject Botox into my tensor veli palatini muscle. Which may help if you have TTTS and you may have more luck with finding someone who can do that than me. If that is successful and wears off, my long-term view is to look to have...

...joining in a few months later. Both my ears have felt full and blocked since onset. No hearing loss or anything of note from the tests. I have TTTS in my left ear since sometime last year (not sure when it started, maybe from the beginning). My tinnitus has been slowly getting worse since...

...frequent. Not exactly stabbing, but a kind of pressure with a pain feeling. It is a new thing, I did not have it before. No idea if that's TTTS - it's not fluttering/thumping I have experienced before occasionally. I drove in my "loud" car yesterday (with earplugs of course), maybe that's...

Yeah, it's the response of you feeling it's a threat which you cannot control. You can't just say to someone “Just relax and don’t let it bother you” and expect them to go “Oh right of course, silly me, I'll be fine now thanks to this sage advice.” You also have to factor in that you may also...

...From what I read, this is because the brain subconsciously senses the tinnitus as a threat and activates the sympathetic nervous system and gets stuck in the fight or flight response. My tinnitus is variable along with hearing loss, hyperacusis, and TTTS, so it's not easily ignored for long.

I have a couple of ideas which might help. In terms of TMJ, check with a good dentist to assess your bite and determine whether dental work or a dental guard might help. Another route would be a highly trained craniosacral therapist who might be able to offer relief in terms of TMJ and even...

I’ve been okay! Tinnitus is okay and I haven’t had any spikes *knock on wood*. Right now it’s just my hyperacusis, TTTS and reactivity that’s bothering me. My anxiety has been pretty bad lately so that’s also adding fuel to the fire, I’m sure. How are you?

Pain is gone now, back to business as usual. Convinced that my issues do actually stem from a physical problem with my ears (TTTS) now

Sorry to hear about your worsening, @RunningMan. Yet some people actually improve, not just habituate. Just as I guess we do not quite understand how the tinnitus/hyperacusis actually happens, we do not understand how it heals. Nerve healing is a thing, it often takes a very long time even in...

...mostly longer term with repeated exposures / trauma and worsening 19 months ago, so there's not much hope for me. I then started experiencing TTTS 3 months ago. And hyperacusis is a more recent development, becoming more obvious about 6 weeks ago. Also terrifying are the posts from people...

Lots of factors to consider which makes it more difficult to pinpoint what's happening. From what I've read one can develop TTTS from TMD, anticipatory fear of loud sounds & stress/anxiety. Do you have pulsatile or somatic tinnitus? Have you checked Dr. Silverstein's website? He does surgery...

...biggest spike on record from last week. I also felt rhythmic thumping in both of my ears and felt a very high heartbeat. I do not suppose it was TTTS... very strange. Surprisingly, I wasn't even panicked. Just like in disbelief thinking "I can't f****** believe it". I fell asleep again...

...when fewer people were there. I even put in musician's earplugs at times, which I never felt a need for back in April. I also experienced some TTTS (MEM) fluttering when speaking among a smaller group. Low frequency sounds don't seem to be much of an issue for me. Tinnitus seems worse...

Everyone can cope with mild or at least constant tinnitus. Try constantly changing sounds, tones, intensities of tinnitus from day to day combined with hyperacusis, hearing loss, and TTTS, and the resulting anxiety, insomnia, and worse that they can bring. That can crush the strongest of minds.

...Is this going to worsen my hyperacusis over time? There are some days when I wake up fine, but sometimes I wake up and my loudness hyperacusis/TTTS is more sensitive. Eventually my goal is to resolve my jaw issues so I can sleep on my side again, but I’m currently taking a break from...

...to some sounds gives me a visceral reaction where it seems like my ear is tensing up to these said sounds. I think it may be my hyperacusis and TTTS flaring up in response to these spikes, but the fact that I have had these episodes probably around eight times within the month, does not give...

...with episodes of MEM (spontaneous spasms in the right ear) lasting for hours at a time, triggered by burps/hiccups. And that is on top of TTTS (reactive spasms to some sounds) which I had developed 2 years ago. I've been suspecting I may have something like sinusitis or ETD, because I get a...

...do not know which scares me more. They are both hellishly scary on each own. I feel like the suffering has quadrupled by having both (2x2=4). TTTS (?) or thumping sensation seems to be gone for few days. Burning showed up for a moment today. I so wish I could claim I have reached some sense...

Going to treat it as eardrum injury rather than acoustic injury. Neurologist said I have TN & gave me meds. Might help TTTS. No change in T

I think the tympanometry tests bruised my eardrums in combination with my TTTS.Pain is more from jaw/neck movement and TTTS thump then sound

Sorry to hear. Yeah, I've had similar with my slight highs, seems there's a bunch of things that are controllable but regular high-frequency tinnitus isn't one of them. Glad we can get some control over the lows though.

...happened in a few days now, no itching. Burning started to appear in both recently, but still rather infrequent. I really do not think I have TTTS. I simply massacred my cochlear hair and/or synapases. I don't know what is causing the worsening. Either my ears are really super delicate, or...

...like it was at times in the spring. Unfortunately, the higher frequency tones are still there and fluctuating as much as ever plus more recent TTTS (with and without sound stimulus) and hyperacusis development, so it's a net negative for me. My low frequency was easier to deal with because...

Just did some neck exercises/stretching. Now 5 min later really fast and high pitched TTTS that I've never had. Any experiences/explanation?
