18 months since I got H. Doing much better now. Able to go outside with ear plugs. Watched latest squid games season with decent volume. Still taking Nortriptyline. Although very low dosage 5 mg.

Brain implants and similar ideas have been dangled in front of tinnitus sufferers for decades. None of them have worked—if they had, we would have heard about it. People use different methods to manage their tinnitus, but actually banishing it or curing it? There is zero scientific evidence...

I just read a comment from someone in response to an entirely different topic, and I decided to try it. To my surprise, the loud volume of my screaming tinnitus went down significantly. I have no idea why or what exactly happened, but I will definitely be trying this again. Here’s the comment I...

I had the exact same experience - ear was blocked. Most likely due to excessive wax. a decade ago similar thing had happened and I had gone to the doctor to get it cleaned. This time I thought why not try OTC. Ended up trying debrox for 3-4 days. The wax blockage reduced substantially and lo and...

It has been a while, but I do not recall there being any sound during tympanometry, only pressure.

Hi Jack, Congratulations on your recovery. I, like most people here, understand the obsessive drive to find a solution to these debilitating symptoms. I made an account here just to talk to you, as your symptoms closely mirror mine. The thing I am most interested in is your reactive tinnitus...

Yes, I remember that from the beginning of my journey. I have healed somewhat for now, but I would never want to go through that again. I do not envy you. It took about eight months for me to reach a more normal state. Seriously, try using cotton wool and a very quiet TV with subtitles...

This is so frustrating. I have no idea how I’m supposed to make this better. My ear burns even when I sit in silence with earplugs and earmuffs on, and it burns even worse if I take them off and still remain in silence. Am I just supposed to let it burn and hope it eventually gets better? It...

Omega-3?

Thanks for this. I was also considering it. What caused your tinnitus? Was it acoustic trauma or something else?

I had a recent spike from ten seconds of a TV at full volume. It took six months to fade, so yes, it will probably go away. It just takes a lot of time.

I think they’re flooded with fuckfaces like you, Mark Fuckface. Now, as a direct descendant of the Vikings, you can’t get any whiter than me. According to Hitler, I’m right at the top of the racial hierarchy — peak Aryan excellence, baby. So by your logic, you should be bowing down to me in...

Remember everyone, brain implants require a Brain MRI, and most of these scans exceed 100 dBA. There are plenty of alarming stories about this on here. I am not saying you should lose hope, but it is something to keep in mind.

Neuralink explained their plan for the next three years during their last update. And yes, they actually mentioned tinnitus. It’s Elon Musk, so of course he makes big promises. And yes, the technology is expensive and invasive, but it is gaining more attention, and the approach itself is truly...

You have hearing loss. Acoustic trauma, followed by tinnitus, hyperacusis, and a sensation of ear fullness, are all signs of damage to the hearing cells. A standard audiogram performed by an audiologist, which typically includes only 6 or 8 data points, is often insufficient to detect this...

To me, it's not the sound that's worst. It's the physical sensation. Aching ears, burning, headache, fullness, the feeling something is broken.

I would love to be a research subject.

I won't waste time arguing with you. You are either in deep denial of reality or just too proud to admit that I am right. Good day to you. You do a lot of talking/insulting, but you don't actually say much. So, once again, are your countries being flooded with non-White "immigrants" or not?

After I found out about DMSO and read a study on it, I became very interested. Dimethyl sulfoxide therapy in subjective tinnitus of unknown origin I read two books on DMSO and brought the study with me to discuss it with my doctor. Once I confirmed that my current medication would not be...

@L along the way - an they are not just words. You never know that the futer holds. If can always get better

Do you have acid reflux? I know acid reflux gives me pulsatile tinnitus, and it used to give me a sore throat.

Hello, my longest spike lasted for three to four months. I got it after going to a restaurant. During those three months, my tinnitus was extremely loud and constantly changing. I thought it was going to be permanent, but after three months, and after starting Clonazepam, it finally went down...

Are you saying that you got permanent spikes from riding your bicycle?

Well, I have been experiencing burning in my ears, mainly in the right one, for a few days now. There is no doubt it is because of the graduation and the trip. I guess that is it for me. I knew it would be bad, but not this bad.

I have been staying in a quiet environment with only a fan running, since it is 90 degrees outside. The room is around 32 dBA. My ears—mainly the right one—just burn unrelentingly all day long. That silence ends today anyway, as my family is coming back from camping. Living in silence is not a...

Look what was at the top of my news feed this morning.

Your initial assertion was something about an 'invasion' happening in 'white nations'. You might want to look up the definition of invasion before speaking off the cuff like you're an expert on this. Fox News and far-right social media algorithms have turned your brain into mush. It's best to...

White supremacist**. I know that right-wingers infamously have no sense or understanding of what satire is, but eeeeesh. @ZFire didn't assume. You wear it clearly on your sleeve. Also, I can't believe it's 2025 and alt-right wackos are still resorting to the "haha got you triggered!!!"...

Your doctor sounds like quite an open-minded person for suggesting grounding. I'm convinced there's something to it. I remember Mrs Elmer buying the other Toyota hybrid a couple of years ago. If you recall, Mrs UKB was also talking about changing her car around the same time. Well, enjoy your...

You seem to give very black and white answers. One size does not fit everyone, and I disagree with a lot of what you are saying here. Reading between the lines, it comes across as if you believe you are pretty much doomed with reactive tinnitus. In any case… There is much more to tinnitus than...

Thanks for the update. Do you believe that any of the other things you have done, such as practicing mindfulness or continuing with daily life, have contributed to not being consciously aware of it?

I only participate in Teams calls and meetings with subtitles.

I don't think you have a psychological problem, you have a severe tinnitus problem. You have physical damage in your ear, which has caused hearing loss and consequently tinnitus. You are a severe case because your tinnitus easily (potentially permanently) worsens from normal noise exposure and...

Once again, you didn't disagree with my initial assertions. Why? Because you know I speak the truth, however uncomfortable it may make you. So, like the others here, you have to be dismissive towards me because you can't refute my assertions. That would make YOU the hoser! Your country, Canada...

The original poster has basically created an advertisement for “Chinese medicine.” I do not care if it has been around for 5,000 years or even 500,000 years. I have not found any documented cases where it truly helps with tinnitus. It might calm someone for a while, but tinnitus remains tinnitus.

It looks like noxacusis. From now on, you need a lot of silence.

For me, it is always a beeping sound, but the speed of the beeping varies depending on the source. Air fryers produce a fast beep, fridges have a consistent tone, and wind creates a strange, slower, mechanical beeping sound.

Do you have TMJ disorder? I have TMJD with disc displacement. Have you ever had an MRI? I often wonder if there might be something going on with our turbinates or sinuses that could be affecting the ears. I also have a constantly stuffy nose and can barely breathe through it at night. What about...

It is very difficult, but the most important factor is time—months or even years—and being in a completely silent room without using hearing protection. Your son has a complex case of reactive, multi-tonal tinnitus. If possible, avoid ototoxic medications, including antidepressants and...

Can you elaborate a bit? Clonazepam isn’t helpful anymore? How often do you take it, and what was your dosage? How long have you been on it, and how old are you? I need your answers.

how old are you bro

Just bumping this to say that I am now about nine months off Gabapentin. I have also reduced my Clonazepam by 50 percent, from 2 mg to 1 mg, and if my tinnitus is acting any differently, I am not consciously aware of it. I am still unsure whether I will completely discontinue Clonazepam or not...

I would be curious to hear if it is still working since the last time you posted. Did your tinnitus sounds also decrease? I think you are on to something with it being an overactive DCN or VCN. Do you think it would be possible to take natural supplements that increase GABA and achieve the same...

In my opinion, those who are qualified for legal immigration and apply correctly should be allowed entry into our country. The United States cannot simply ignore those rules, open the borders, and become the only place in the world where anyone can come and stay as long as they like, often at...

Tell me you're a fan of the holocaust without telling me, is basically what you're screaming.

I forgot to mention this earlier, but the Lenire representative actually told me that the increase in my tinnitus after my acoustic trauma two years ago was psychosomatic, simply because I had very mild tinnitus before it. This, despite the fact that I could barely hear it in a quiet room back...

@Luman, so, in your opinion, who should be allowed entry into what used to be called the “Land of the Free”? Virgins? Wealthy individuals? People who have never committed adultery? Heterosexuals? Right-wing clergymen? How far should the moral police take it? What about pedophiles and...

How are you doing now, @mky10159? I’m in a similar situation. Tinnitus followed by hyperacusis started in October 2020. The hyperacusis disappeared in March 2021, and I was left with mild tinnitus, which I eventually habituated to. Now, more than four years later, it’s been two months of...

You mean like how Native Americans became minorities in their own lands? Why don’t you practice what you preach and go back to Antarctica, bro.

Sorry to hear that you are in such a position, @Kam75. It feels like the world has gone mad. Just last summer, my landlord gave me notice to leave after seven and a half years. With the way things are going, it has become very difficult to find a place to rent. It seems like there is a new...

Now all Lenire needs is to introduce an after-sales follow-up, a heavy-duty persuasion session to convince the patient that their tinnitus has been cured. Like, no one can hear it... it is all in the mind. Just kidding. That said, I must confess that I benefited from TRT treatment back in the...
