    Because I'm experiencing these weird mast cell issues, I've started on my daily Benadryl and Reactine combo again. I've taken this pretty regularly before and during my onset of hyperacusis.

    I've been pondering potential trial drugs for primarily middle ear noxacusis, and I'm wondering if the upcoming potassium channel openers (like XEN1101 and BHV-7000) will help with it at all? We know they will probably help inner ear noxacusis, but there hasn't been any studies done on the...

    Hyperacusis Opinion: We Should Be Focusing Less on Regenerative Medicine and More on the Brain

    So, I'm not really convinced that hearing regenerative medication will cure our hyperacusis. Especially given most of us with noxacusis have no signs of hearing loss, which leads me to believe something in our brain shifted when we got hyperacusis. The fact is most people don't get hyperacusis...

    Is My Hyperacusis Related to Middle or Inner Ear Damage?

    How do you know where exactly your symptoms are originating from? I get some pain from sounds, but my symptoms usually stem from my middle ear thumping or spasming to sounds, even though I don't necessarily feel pain to the sounds. Also, how do you know if you have inner ear damage, as opposed...

    How to Prevent an Ear Infection from Using Earplugs Excessively?

    I've been wearing constant 24/7 double hearing protection for about a week now. I now realize that was a bit overkill as I found the earplugs were causing a lot of my increased symptoms, lmao. Now I'm trying to air my ears out as much as possible and only use my Peltors because I'm noticing...
