...I might not entirely follow, but I'm wondering if you think such a model could explain why some folks such as myself experience intermittent tinnitus, where tinnitus is either switched on for the day or switched off. In my case in particular, I'll have one loud volume day, followed by 2-5...

I recently developed an intermittent low-pitched hum. This is in addition to the bilateral high-pitched tinnitus I’ve had for 13 years, which I have habituated to. The low-pitched hum fluctuates in volume and is worst at night, both when trying to sleep and in the morning when waking up. It’s...

Thanks @Lyman for your updates. They give a pretty concise description of what to expect if a person were to do his program. That said, it would be unfortunate if people fail distinguish between the message and the messenger. I myself think there's a LOT of potential for improvements in...

I’ve had this. It’s a bit scary, yeah. I first started having TTTS a year ago when my tinnitus also began. Several months ago I had several episodes of both of my ears fluttering like butterfly wings for a full 10 seconds or so. It has happened only 3 times in total, though. I also had an...

That's a good question! I have both regular tinnitus and pulsatile tinnitus, and I think overall that the pulsatile tinnitus affects concentration more. For some people, it may not, because theirs is intermittent. My pulsating, however, is constant, and it's harder to tune it out during the day.

This happens to me with sounds around 1500 Hz, piano notes are especially bad for enciting reactive whailing directly inside my ear (not coming from the source, the tinnitus ramps up hard in a distorted, intermittent, rapidly pulsating chaotic tone, close to the piano note, always one tone...

...I've been prescribed over 20 different antidepressants for my OCD/agoraphobia, social anxiety, and none of them worked. Sertraline caused my intermittent tinnitus, which I'm sure is the thing that started the change in my brain so now I have constant tinnitus and visual snow.

There is another version of intermittent fasting. Fast for 16 hours everyday and eat using an 8 hour window.That means skipping mainly breakfast. Also do not overindulge during eating window.

@Ozwel has inspired me to declare war on tinnitus. I've decided to start Etanercept on prescription in a month or so. I will combine this with an anti-inflammatory gluten free, organic vegan diet + natural TNF inhibitors (curcumin, spirulina, etc.) + intermittent fasting. Will get in touch with...

...go away. I ordered a new bottle and after a few days, the buzzing softened and eventually went almost completely away. Enough to tolerate it. With that said, my friend’s soft intermittent tinnitus got louder! I guess like everything else we’ve tried, not everything helps everyone. Good luck!

Hello, I just wanted to share how I got much much better from my noise induced tinnitus. The one thing that has helped me a lot is fasting. It turns out that many great things happen to your body when you fast. I recommend you watch the following video about the effects of fasting and give it a...

Causes of tinnitus include....trauma, depression, anxiety, tmj. I can't find tinnitus listed as a side effect of naproxen. Intermittent tinnitus is very common and can be caused by a number of conditions. What's important is taking care of depression and anxiety and hopefully the body heals itself.

Please help. I’ve had tinnitus for 26 years and I was habituated. However, I had a total hysterectomy and 4 weeks post op my tinnitus spiked in my right ear. The spike has lasted for a month now. So I went to TJ Maxx today and an intermittent alarm went off while in the store. I had my...

Isn’t Dr. Shore’s study closed for new patients now? I got a reply from a local ENT... “Thank you for contacting re the OTO-313 study. Can you tell me something about your tinnitus. Start date, severity, one-sided or bilateral, any associated hearing loss, intermittent or constant, etc.”

I don't really understand this phenomenon. If it's possible to have silence intermittently, why can't the brain filter tinnitus out permanently? I had one of my sounds silent for about an hour this morning, but it's back.

...really frustrating. I also did a high impact Zumba Strong class which made the tinnitus much worse for several days. I’m going to stick to fast walking and Latin dance class. I have endolymphatic hydrops tinnitus which means I have intermittent tinnitus and I cope ok with a white noise...

I think it’s safe to say that your spike is more than likely noise induced. It would appear it’s not uncommon for spikes of this nature to take many months to gradually fade, and at such a slow rate that it’s not even noticeable. I only took Prednisone for two weeks and probably tapered down a...

Well I took Clonazepam with little issue for a year or so after tinnitus onset. Withdrawal was largely uneventful. Since a recent worsening in my noxacusis that has caused me great stress I was taking 2-3 1 mg doses of Clonazepam a month for about the past four months. The last dose was...

When I think back, I used to get this intermittent ringing in my ear but thought not too much of it as it would only be for a few minutes and would then disappear. This was obviously a warning sign and I basically ignored it, because it never really bothered me. T doesn’t become a problem until...

I got morse code type tinnitus 6 months ago and still have some problems to adjust... Is it possible to adjust to it with time? Like habituation? Because it's not my regular hissing that is constant, it's intermittent and so far really hard to ignore it. Is there people around who have get used...

I used to have 3 tones a high tone, medium oscillating tone, and a intermittent low tone. Since increasing my Prednisone, the tone has become more high pitched. I don't hear any low tones anymore. It is also becoming reactive. What does this mean? I don't know what to do.

@BrysonKingMe - I have the same type of intermittent/variable/fluctuating tinnitus. Some days it's low and some days it's loud. Very often, it occurs on the day boundary--whatever I wake up to is what I get for the day, as if my tinnitus flips a coin in the night. When it's low, it's primarily...

I have been experiencing intermittent, unilateral Tinnitus for 4-6 weeks and visited my PCP, yesterday. He decided to do Complete Blood Chemistry and ordered an MRI. I thought this was a little aggressive on the diagnosis side and I thought he would refer me to an ENT. He said if the blood...

You already asked me in a different thread. I answered there. It’s in both ears. But really only get the actual vibration sensation in left ear so far. Both are intermittent. Today has been a good day. Last night was bad. Woke up and had vibrations in my body too. Honestly not sure what is...

Search for my posts in the Pulsatile Tinnitus category and you will find lots of information on my MEM experience.

Hello Everyone! My name is Kriszti, I'm 31 and I'm from Eastern Europe. Here is my tinnitus (?) story an I have some questions at the end. In 2016, my left ear rang for 2 weeks, went to audiology, ended up with an Eustach tube problem, but the ringing stopped. At the beginning of 2017, it made...

I have loud fluctuating, AKA intermittent, tinnitus, much like Rick Beato, but my periods of silence are not very long. I have habituated to the point that when it is ringing, my mind ignores it most of the time. I had a spike a few days ago due to accidental exposure to a loud noise, which has...

...pathology in the brain? I think I read many times that hissing is created in a different way than a pure tone tinnitus or intermittent tinnitus. There shall be different brain mechanism for all these. So how Neuromod can claim that the quality / type of the tinnitus sound itself doesn’t...

No, it's actually on the louder side today. I was doing really good starting 3 weeks ago until about yesterday. Case said 30 days so I'm going to try and stick it out.

There is hearing loss without tinnitus. Fact. That leads me to believe we can be healed without growing hair cells.

I received two lower dental implants and now I have intermittent tinnitus in my right ear. It's worse in the morning and nighttime. If I clench my lower jaw, I can block out the tinnitus and replace it with the high-pitched tinnitus I had every few days my entire life prior to this full-blown...

Judging by my experience the chances of tinnitus actually going and staying away 100% after being there for more than a year is virtually zero.

Not exactly sure where to post this but it seems that whenever I "pop" my ears by opening my mouth/moving my jaw around my tinnitus disappears for a good couple of seconds. I can also bring it back by doing the same thing, if I am not currently experiencing it. My T sounds like a high pitched...

I have sought tinnitus resources since I have recently experienced an onset of persistent medium and high frequency tones, mainly it seems in my left ear, since my COVID-19 vaccination in December 2020. It is not audibly painful or distracting, yet. However, I have never had this in the past...

Does anyone else have low-frequency tinnitus that is not extremely low-pitched like a vibrating motor, but is in the 150 Hz to 350 Hz range, like the sound of a vacuum cleaner for example? In my left ear, where I have mild ETD (random popping and crackling since 8 months), I hear a low-pitched...

...and as she ages her hearing worsens: she has mild tinnitus. My father has some hearing problems too: mild to moderate but intermittent tinnitus. Some people have good hearing profiles, their tinnitus is not noise induced but it's loud. It's bugging me, I'm trying to figure out what may...

There's no such thing as normal tinnitus. Some have high pitched, some low pitched, some loud, some quiet; some constant, some reactive, some intermittent, some hissing, some screeching and some people's come and go, some peoples changes every five minutes. My point is. Everyone's is different...

Hmm I realize you might be talking to the OP but how do I get the doctors to check me out for this? Well I am getting an MRI so hopefully something shows. This could be my issue too although my very reactive tinnitus came a few days after a cold a year ago. I get these almost fleeting...

Hi @Luman I have intermittent tinnitus but call it another name: fluctuating tinnitus. My tinnitus can be: completely silent like today. Mild, moderate or severe. It no longer reaches extremely severe levels that would last for many days then slowly subside. When my tinnitus is severe I...

i feel your pain. it was already fairly bad in my mid 30's - i had occasional rare tinnitus in my 20's which gradually changed from intermittent to constant - had to drop out of symphony orchestra violinist which was really devastating -

Well I don't have tinnitus anymore but I'm still aggravated by intermittent ear pain and pain across my cheek, which leads me to wonder whether my initial incident caused something like TMJ syndrome. Is it possible for a loud gong noise to do that? Does TMJ resolve eventually?

I'm surprised you're on Tinnitus Talk then. Did you have it worse before?

I did keto and intermittent fasting for months when I first got tinnitus (not for tinnitus but because I couldn’t lift weights or run). No effect now that I’m back to exercise and eating carbohydrates.

Well, I guess the members of this board have nothing to worry about then.

How does one even habituate to these intermittent pausing sounds/tones? They have no predictability which in my experience makes it impossible for the brain to habituate to. What is even up with this beeping and pausing. Like the f***!!! Why!!!!! Why are you doing this?! At least give me...

I think it was around 1985 when I first started having intermittent tinnitus and it was around 2000 when it became persistent (24/7). It has ebbs and flows where it is more intense, but never goes away. It is exacerbated by arthritis in that every NSAID seems to make it worse. I have had...

Hi there, yep! 3 main tinnitus sounds for me. -1 in left ear modulating between 3 kHz & 4 kHz. -1 high pitched (around 10 kHz) in the center of the head. -1 at 3.5 kHz (intermittent) in the right ear. I had 3 or 4 more sounds in the first 3 months... (buzz, cricket, paper sound)... I...

Hi Glynis To be honest I don't hear it at all when I exercise, which confuses me. So it's not there when I'm standing, sitting or exercising. I am very confused which is what greats most of my anxiety. Can Pulsatile Tinnitus be intermittent ? Ryan

Hello. I have intermittent tinnitus in my left ear of 9 month's standing, following an accident. I hear fine - then static/vibration and pain. I am being treated for possible Middle Ear Myoclonus. Does anyone else have pain with their sound? what are you being treated for? With thanks.

No, I don't need to. My tinnitus is very very mild and intermittent and my hyperacusis only comes and goes. The hardest part about my tinnitus is focusing at work when it flares up, and the emotional hit from losing my ability to play electric guitar and drums.

What kind of morse code do you have now?

Hi all. Before I go into the details of my changing T, I want to give a brief background of myself for those who have not read my other posts. I developed bilateral T towards the end of April. I was diagnosed with mild bilateral high frequency hearing loss. It eventually settled to a multi-tone...

@Erik.Swe - I can't rightly explain why it gets quiet when you put your finger in your ear. Is your tinnitus objective by chance? I wish I knew why it comes and goes. Mine flips when I'm asleep. An osteopath I spoke with wonders if it has to do with poor cerebrospinal fluid or blood flow during...

Hi, Morgan, I also have intermittent tinnitus that chirps like crickets, (and lately more like Morse code - I like that description). The louder the tinnitus the higher the pitch. Mine disappeared for 10 months, but both onsets were associated with an intense season at work. I'm still dealing...

Yeah but what is it? Is it when it gets twice as loud? When you can hear it over masking? Sorry if this is a stupid question. I'm asking because I have some intermittent symptoms. Do I have mild tinnitus and these are spikes? Or do I just have days with tinnitus and days without?

Liam is the worst type of scammer the one who uses people suffering and desperation for its own profit and selfishness. People are literally committing suicide over severe tinnitus and this clown is preaching that dry fasting,intermittent fasting or keto can fix it that is just so scientifically...

Hello all, Just signed up today and thought I would introduce myself. I'm 49 and I can remember intermittent tinnitus 5 years ago where it would come on for a couple minutes and then go away. At the time I thought it was some type of radio frequency which I could hear. In 2018 it was very...

I have the same thing. I think it is the Eustachian tube.
