...for hyperthyroidism. This is frequently associated with higher systolic blood pressure or systolic hypertension. It is well reported, that caffeine-coffee and alcohol impacts the absorption of T4 - thyroid. See a Conventional Radiologist where he might order a CTA, MRA and ultrasound of neck.

...they are unusually quiet (say, 75 dB average). There is at least anecdotal and animal-model evidence to suggest that noise combined with alcohol is worse than noise or alcohol by themselves (severe alcohol abuse can cause tinnitus on its own, alcohol is significantly neurotoxic and obviously...

I said I was drinking too much alcohol and wanted to stop. It worked.

The only things I've noticed have an effect for me are alcohol :( and MSG. Both make it worse. For some people alcohol makes it quieter. By chance someone told me that alcohol is the 'antidote' to glutamate. I dont know how true this is.

Normally, I don't drink alcohol. The one time when I tried drinking a small amount during the past 8 months, my T switched ears (!!!). I was terrified. Needless to say, I never tried drinking alcohol again.

After drinking alot of alcohol on new years eve i woke up with buzzing and beeping noise which change from my normal ringing tone

I want to ask anyone who has there T change from a normal tone to buzzing and beeping after drinking alcohol for one night

What I also find interesting is the connection between Benzos and alcohol , I find that beer takes the edge of my T and getting drunk ...Silence ! Only time I have experienced silence is when I'm plastered , not too good. Apparently alcohol and benzos are related in that you can actually prolong...

Never had an issue with flying or driving but my tinnitus is not alcohol induced.

I had to go on the dry no alcohol @Shera after heart surgery but as I've said, I drank my share and yours also. Alcohol never bothered the tinnitus, but chocolate sure fires it up.

Thank you for your kind comments @Gilo. It is your choice but if you like a drink, then I wouldn't stop drinking alcohol as long as it's consumed in moderation. I explain more about this in my post: Food, Drink and Tinnitus, in the link below. If you live in the UK my advice is not to seek...

Alpacas getting tinnitus, pretending to like people and buying alcohol now. We truly are in the end times.

...transfer of power and accepting election defeat is important. I find Trump's character and actions unsuitable for the job. I don't drink alcohol, but if Trump wins, I will make a point of dropping by Minnesota to buy you a coffee and if Biden wins, I take my coffee black, no sugar. Take...

...and stress at work, and I isolate myself at home as much as possible. I eat as healthily as possible in small portions, particularly avoiding alcohol and sugary foods/desserts. I drink plenty of water with natural lemon drops and ginger slices (natural antioxidants) between meals. I hope...

@Sam Bridge This is what I've read, that it is advisable to avoid alcohol, however I just visited the British Tinnitus Association's website and came across this; "It is often recommended that people with tinnitus should abstain from alcohol, with red wine frequently coming in for special...

Here is a corresponding thread with a poll: Poll: What Effect Does Alcohol Have on Your Tinnitus?

@buttercake, can you drink alcohol even though you take Kestine?

I'm all for people's experiences, good or bad, but ranting and screaming things like 'poison' or 'the devil' offers nothing. These same people will then be happy for XEN1011 or any other medication to treat their tinnitus. Some of these people down alcohol and eat processed foods.

...-- especially excessive daily drinking -- disrupts the brain's neurotransmitters, the brain chemicals that transmit messages. For example, alcohol initially enhances the effect of GABA, the neurotransmitter which produces feelings of relaxation and calm. But chronic alcohol consumption...

I heard that alcohol and benzos have "something" in common although a benzo would not completely stop my T like alcohol does.

Celebrating 15 years with wifey... loud music and alcohol. Tomorrow could be interesting... gotta live tho. Y'all be careful out there. YOLO

Alcohol almost without exception raises my tinnitus, but it's sometimes worth it to relax and make me care a little less.

Alcohol occasionally reduces all my sounds to a hiss. Not sure if this is because I'm relaxed and my mind is somewhere else or if it's the impacted circulation. A few times I had spikes completely disappear after alcohol. Only once did I have a 'reaction' after a drink - my right ear had...

Just have to jump in here cause the stats are against you on this. Alcohol is a very destructive poison killing more people than weed would ever do. The damages from alcohol are irreversible, more so than with heroin even. Ask any medical doctor. I know people thats been smoking weed and joints...

Do you know which Bose headphones you have? It’s just they range between £190 - £400?

Been investigating more about the effect of alcohol on neurotranmission because a therpaist told me that 'alcohol is the antidote to glutamate'. Seems she's right as its a Glutamate antagonist. I'm looking into it as alcohol seems to make my T worse so this could mean that my particular...

@Nick47, I am only loosely referring to nicotine and alcohol. I noticed that vaping and smoking cigarettes seemed to agitate my hyperacusis. This was a major reason I stopped vaping or smoking. Additionally, alcohol gives the illusion of a numbing effect only to potentially give you a setback if...

Having alcohol tonight for the first time in a while, I've noticed a reduction in my tinnitus but it went back to baseline after sobering up. Smoking doesn't seem to have an effect on me. Now on the other hand, worrying about my sister seeing me doing the smoking spiked it...

Alcohol makes everything worse in the long run. But a glass of wine is reasonable ;-)

Alcohol.

...guidelines. These are just overall guidelines and have nothing to do with a permanent increase of T. I really wouldn't look away from alcohol if you like it. We already tend to abstain from a lot of things thanks to T, especially the first months. So don't add anything that has no impact.

Tinnitus since Oct. 2014. Thought it may be alcohol related. Quit alcohol for 8 months-didn't help. Measured in 4000mz range in right ear.

Maybe it has something to do with the amount of alcohol. Had four beers (0,2 litres), not that much. Since I got T I'm not drinking much alcohol and pay more attention to the amount of alcohol I'm drinking. It individually depends how a body deals with alcohol and its degradation. Maybe you have...

I presume international patients would be excluded from compassionate use?

Have you considered stopping drinking alcohol?

Interesting you should mention alcohol, especially that it could ruin the ears. Here's something I posted a while ago whilst wanting to find a connection between the two, makes for sobering reading! https://www.tinnitustalk.com/threads/alcohol.933/#post-7203 If you get silence from drinking...

Alcohol can relax you and make you feel happy but if have depression then alcohol will not help and bring you down again ... Lots of love glynis

Please don't use alcohol drops in your ears! Instead try the apple vinegar first then see if it helps, I agree with the above... Alcohol is extremely harsh on such a sensitive organ!

Whatever gluten free beer is around. For those curious, here is a list of gluten free alcohol drinks: http://munchyy.com/gluten-free-alcohol-list/

absolutely everyone gets goosebumps from music. this is clickbait. do you wake up thirsty after drinking alcohol? research shows your brain is special in the way it processes alcohol!

they're called benzodiazepines and they're even more dangerous than alcohol. @Mario martz alcohol doesn't affect my t but hangovers sure do, and not in a good way.

When I use marijuana, caffeine or alcohol, my tinnitus gets worse. I have good days too, with "non-annoying" tinnitus, up to 20 days a month. When I use the aforementioned, it must speed up my neurons which is why tinnitus happens, I guess. I'm wondering if Dr. Shore's device will help slow...

It was tincture, you can get it in Glycerin if you don't want the alcohol.

Alcohol always calms my tinnitus down. In the past if I drank a lot I could not even hear my tinnitus.

I once read a story about a guy who could only reduce his tinnitus by drinking whiskey daily. He figured it was better living as an alcoholic than suffering with tinnitus. I'm guessing for a very few lucky folks, alcohol hits the right receptors to silence tinnitus.

I definitely agree it would need to be done along with education and public health measures. I read this statistic about alcohol consumption during prohibition: "We find that alcohol consumption fell sharply at the beginning of Prohibition, to approximately 30 percent of its pre-Prohibition...

@windwalker, thanks. No booze for me, but smoking and vaping due to loud reactive tinnitus. Was your tinnitus loud?

hi mick, my ear specialist actually said to cut out the alcohol as well as caffeine because it can worsen the tinnitus,you should find something other than alcohol to help you fall asleep,i take an anti-depressant without alcohol,keep busy , but even when you do relax try to concentrate on other...

"Drinking alcohol increases blood flow to the inner ear, which can cause tinnitus – a ringing, buzzing or swooshing sound in the ears. This condition can resolve itself in a few hours, but can still be quite annoying while it is present. Excessive drinking on a regular basis can lead to...

...stopped using them the second I realized this possibility. I have now sworn to never use earbuds or headphones ever again. I also drunk more alcohol that day (10th of September) that I had ever before. It was still not that much because I had been almost a teetotaller before that. I didn't...

Got my RTG 50mg today.(y) Does anyone drink alcohol while on this drug? By alcohol I mean one beer or or one scotch everyday:). Thank you Rog

I PROVE IT MANY WEEKS AGO MIXED WITH ALCOHOL... AND MY T WAS VERY QUIET UNTIL THE NEXT DAY... Normally the alcohol makes it louder to me...Sorry about my english

This.. Alcohol is shit.

Hi, how loud was your tinnitus prior to quit alcohol?

Does alcohol have the same affect as benzos on the gaba receptors? I am withdrawing from alcohol and my tinnitus is bothering me alot more, seems harder to cope.
