Thank you both. One more concern, which I can’t bring myself to get checked. I had a clear hearing test about 40 hours after the incident, and then I stopped Ibuprofen out of fear of its possible ototoxic effect, as I hadn’t thought to ask the ENT about treating the pain when I saw him at the...

First of all, congratulations on your newborn! Grief is a part of this process, and an unavoidable one. It takes time to accept. And yes, it can be a lonely condition at times. That’s why I personally went to counseling for 5 years, though only sporadically during the last 3. It’s not enough to...

Ummm... I think the cavemen had it easier. All their time was spent in nature. If they have tinnitus, just go and live by a babbling brook. Or the ocean. Wind, animals, rain, etc, are all very noisy. Focusing on subsistence for survival takes a lot of mental effort and is a good distraction...

My tinnitus faded a bit around the 5-month mark. Keep hope alive. It can get quieter. Stay strong!

Ah, my heart breaks for you. What should be the most exciting time in your life just isn’t. And all of us completely understand why. I’m increasingly realizing why people say “stay busy.” I recently had my parents visiting from overseas for a week. For that whole week we were out, active, and...

If there is no going back, what could a path forward look like? You can't fix your tinnitus. What can you do? These are the kind of questions I ask myself to keep going. Usually, there are lots of things I can come up with that are related not to the past but to the future.

It's maddening to think that we've had a potential intervention available for so long and no one has done anything with it. That's why I've donated multiple times to Tinnitus Quest and will keep doing so--we can't let another 30 years go by like the last.

Having an incredibly hard time three weeks postpartum, and while I wish I could blame everything on the massive hormonal shift, the truth is this depressed feeling isn’t just the baby blues or postpartum depression. It’s grief. I’m grieving. For the last 10 months that I’ve lived with tinnitus...

Anywhere from a couple of days to 5-6 weeks.

Most likely @Zugzug is the only one with access to the original file, and as you pointed out, he hasn't been active for years. You may need to start a new spreadsheet from scratch. That is, unless an administrator or moderator here can scrub XenForo (the forum platform that Tinnitus Talk is...

Hi everyone, this is my first time posting here and I’d love to get your opinions. I’ve officially reached the 3-month stage of having tinnitus from a single loud bang caused by a tyre popping. For the first month and a bit, I had regular ear discomfort and a sense of fullness, but that’s faded...

We could ask him directly. As it turns out, I know just the guy for the job.

Anyone who wants to accompany me on a fishing trip outside the coast of Venezuela? There are some great swordfish opportunities there, and my uncle has a fairly big speedboat we could borrow😅
