    My Tinnitus Is Louder After COVID-19 Infection

    ...in my ears, nothing to worry about.” It wasn’t loud, I noticed it only in quiet places (bathroom, in my bed). After I was dealing with COVID-19 2 weeks ago, my tinnitus got louder. Sometimes I was stressing about it, but right now I’m getting used to it, hoping it will make less noise after...

    Is Paxlovid (Ritonavir/Nirmatrelvir) Ototoxic? Can It Make Tinnitus Worse?

    Are you feeling better now? Did you experience any long-term effects from COVID-19? I just tested positive two days ago. So far, I only have a headache and a fever of 38.5°C. The pharmacist mentioned that medication isn't usually prescribed for people under 65 or without pre-existing conditions...

    Hi @vilebubbles Thanks for the comment. I'm surviving. 1 step forward 2 back at the moment. It didn't help that I caught Covid for the first (& hopefully only) time in Dec 2023 which seems to have exacerbated my long-term issues. How are you doing presently?

    COVID-19 Gave Me Tinnitus, and Now the Pfizer Vaccine Made It Even Worse?

    I had a bad case of COVID-19 last July and the tinnitus started in early October. I've been reading recently that having COVID-19 could be a cause of both tinnitus and/or severe hearing loss. I already have hearing loss and wear hearing aids, but it didn't get worse after COVID-19. I've read...

    Sound Pharmaceuticals (SPI-5557 & SPI-1005)

    I completely believe this. My tinnitus started after a COVID-19 booster vaccination and then worsened after a COVID-19 infection. I think it's either from inflammation or an autoimmune reaction. I'm hopeful for any treatment.

    Anyone Tried Turmeric (or Other Methods) Prior to 2nd or Booster COVID-19 Vaccination?

    ...(Curcumin) or any other method prior to getting future shots? What was the results? Not everyone who has tinnitus is having issues with the COVID-19 vaccination shots. But undeniably many are. But the fact is also that COVID-19 is likely even more damaging and potentially beyond the...

    Immunological and Antigenic Signatures Associated with Chronic Illnesses, Including Tinnitus, After COVID-19 Vaccination

    If you end up in an emergency room with severe COVID-19, surrounded by a surgical team trying to keep your lungs open (God forbid), they will be completely focused on keeping you alive and breathing. They are not going to ask whether you have a history of auditory problems. They are on the front...

    Ways to Combat Tinnitus Side Effects from COVID-19 Vaccine?

    I've seen a lot of people post on here about a spike or onset of tinnitus following COVID-19 vaccine and since this is also a complication of COVID-19 itself, I thought it might be useful for us to create a discussion on ways to reduce risk of this side effect from the vaccine so we don't feel...

    Tinnitus from Flu/COVID-19 — Looking for Hope/Understanding

    I'll keep taking the vaccine—six times so far with no effect on tinnitus. However, COVID-19 is 2000 times more likely to cause tinnitus than the vaccination for it, plus other possible complications such as "long COVID" or worse.

    Tinnitus After Pfizer COVID-19 Vaccine, Made Worse by Moderna Omicron Variant Booster

    Being a 67-year-old naturopathic doctor with serious immune system and respiratory diseases I was looking forward to getting vaccinated against COVID-19.

    Can COVID-19 Cause Tinnitus? I Also Have Dizziness

    Hi all, I had COVID-19 mid October and I was fully recovered, having no issues, for over 2 months before a slight dizziness/nausea returned. A month later I experienced spells of minor ringing for 5 seconds for a week in my right ear (normal other than the number of times). I then had one of...

    Post COVID-19 Tinnitus

    COVID-19 also worsened my tinnitus. Strangely enough, Gabapentin helps alleviate my post-COVID-19 tinnitus but does little for my noise-induced tinnitus. I cannot take it regularly, though, as I only have a limited amount, and my ENT in my new location would not agree to refill my prescription.

    Post COVID-19 Tinnitus

    My already bad, already medicated tinnitus got noticeably worse after COVID-19 last fall. I found some (thin) research indicating Gabapentin might be helpful at 600 mg, and as I have a ton of that stuff, I took it at that dose for 2-3 weeks, which at least calmed me down. I have numerous...

    Gabapentin (Neurontin)

    I was having some of this post-COVID-19 after my ears got super fed by it, and after finding a couple of papers, I jumped up to 600 mg/day for a couple of weeks. This coincided with a reduction in symptoms, but that could be a coincidence. I've since stopped taking Gabapentin, mostly because I...
