So a week ago I received my first Pfizer shot. Prior to the shot I had several weeks of my tinnitus ranging from mild to moderate to short periods of time where it was completely gone. The majority of the time it had been mild to the point were it was only audible in a quiet room or maybe barely...

I noticed that there is a certain room in my house that is usually very quiet and when I enter it, often my tinnitus disappears. Sometimes it is just for a few seconds, other times it will go away for several minutes. It doesn't always work. If my tinnitus is really bad it doesn't seem to make a...

Thanks. This is very helpful.

This is a fascinating story, @norwaygirl. I'm still pretty new to tinnitus (it didn't seriously start until a couple of months ago). Last night it was ringing pretty badly and I couldn't sleep so I was reading this forum, including your post. Later on, as I lay in bed, I tried to focus on...

The more I read about it, the more I realize that this is a really strange and unpredictable condition. I guess anything to do with the brain can be like that. I struggled with depression for several years (although I have not had a problem for the past 12 years) and this reminds me of...

Thanks. I'll continue on with what I am doing then. I have no reason to believe it was noise induced, as I lead a pretty quiet life. I think, though, that stress has contributed to the problem, which I know I will need to address as well.

I have had tinnitus for a couple of months and am wondering if it is true that the longer you wait to treat tinnitus, the more likely it will become permanent. I have read this in a few places, but it doesn’t make a lot of sense to me. It seems that if there in an underlying issue causing the...

Thanks! I will let you know.

Thanks for the advice. I've looked into this some more and I think I will go ahead and get vaccinated. It seems that getting COVID-19 also presents a high risk of aggravating tinnitus, along with all the other potential problems. So I'll take my chances with the vaccine. I'm also thinking that...

Reading this thread is really making me nervous. I’ve been really looking forward to getting vaccinated so that life can return to something more like normal. But now I’m not sure what to do.

Thanks for your optimism, ajc.

In January 2020 I fell and hit the back of my head and received a concussion as well as whiplash. It took about three months to recover and I needed physiotherapy for my neck (which really did help a lot in my recovery). I did have occasional tinnitus during that time but was feeling so poorly...
