    Just Woke Up with Tinnitus in Left Ear and I Think This Is Going to Be a Problem

    I've been getting some random moments of it in recent weeks and when they came on, I was already worrying this was eventually going to become the permanent state. Well, I think that day has arrived, as it came on in my dream and I woke up with it. It's subtle at the moment, but I still don't...

    Hyperacusis Mostly Gone. Replaced by Dizziness.

    My hyperacusis has been basically gone since a couple nights ago, except when I'm lying down. And this relief in that symptom was brought about by an increase in dizziness. Lying down/sleep seems to be a trigger for changing/worsening symptoms. What is going on?

    Does Hyperacusis Put You at Higher Risk for Developing Tinnitus?

    I think I just heard some tinnitus coming on while I was watching a video. Is this a matter of your ears being more at risk when they're more sensitive to sound or something?

    What Do My Symptoms Sound Like?

    1. Whenever I'm exposed to certain sounds over a long duration (more than a few seconds), my ear starts to feel full...like pressure changes on an airplane. 2. When I lie down on the back of my head, I get a dizzy sensation that takes a little while to settle down. 3. I have a low, humming...

    Constant Lower Pitched Sound in Ear... Tinnitus?

    I had always thought that "tinnitus" just referred to that high-pitched ringing I would sometimes randomly get in my ear for several seconds out of nowhere (that would fade), and assumed that anyone who has having tinnitus problems had that, but it wasn't going away. But in the last couple of...

    What Causes the "Full" Ear Sensation from Sound?

    Does anybody know what mechanism this is? When enough of the sounds that bother my ear are going on for long enough, my ear starts to feel like I'm on an airplane and they're clogged. Except instead of pressure causing it, it's noise (but normal, everyday noise like my car engine when I'm...

    Why Can't They Just Surgically Remove the Ear and Everything Else?

    I read an article about people who killed themselves because of intractable hyperacusis. I mean, can't they just surgically make people deaf?

    Does Acoustic Neuroma Cause Hyperacusis?

    I woke up last week on Monday morning before a dental appointment (which I was anxious about) and noticed that my voice was vibrating in my left ear in a really noticeable, uncomfortable way. What's funny is it actually went away for several hours and I was fine during the dental appointment...

    My Trip to the Supermarket Was UNBELIEVABLE. How Is This Even Possible?

    I feel like I have dog hearing, only instead of hearing high-pitched sounds, I hear every low sound. Every machine in the supermarket was right up against my ear drum. FFS, I feel like I can hear every low-pitched sound in the universe now. If there's a low-pitched equivalent to a pin dropping...

    Voice Vibrating/Too Loud in Left Ear. Low/Bass Sounds Make It Go Crazy.

    I'm not even sure this counts as "tinnitus", but I figured the term is just used for hearing distortions in general. I just woke up with this last Monday. I'm not remotely sick. I breathe easily through my nose. No sign of sinus anything. Anyway, it's as I described in the title. What's weird...
