    Hello. I'm new.

    I also forgot to say that I noticed a lower tone in my tinnitus last week. It's not louder, just different.

    Hello. I'm new.

    Hi everyone. I haven't been on here lately, but wanted to post an update. For awhile I was able to ignore my T and my H went away for a bit. However, I was having other strange symptoms like knee pain and muscle twitching. I was diagnosed with patellofemoral syndrome and have been going to...

    Hello. I'm new.

    Yeah. It is good I didn't need an MRI. I was kind of afraid of that as I heard they are loud. I might look into TRT for my hyperacusis because it is probably the hardest thing to deal with--maybe more than T right now. :( I might be able to get it at my doctors office, though they didn't...

    Hello. I'm new.

    Hi Markku, I saw two more doctors. One primary care and one ENT. The ENT told me I had tinnitus (which I already knew) and gave me stuff to read about it. He said to call if I hear my pulse in my left ear again. He doesn't think I need an MRI. I hear the pulse sometimes, but not all the time...

    Hyperacusis and Everyday Environment

    Since I noticed my ringing ears, I have also noticed noise sensitivity--slamming cabinets, soda cans being opened, and dishes clanging, hurt my ears. I went to the mall for a while today and felt like things were a little louder as well, though I don't know if I was just expecting that because...

    Hello. I'm new.

    I noticed the pulsating in my ear wasn't really noticeable for a while, but now it's back. It makes me feel better knowing someone else has something very much like what I have. Yes. Maybe the doctor can help out a bit more. -and thank you :)

    Hello. I'm new.

    Thank you. I have an appointment for next week just in case. Glad to know it will likely subside. It makes the noise seem worse. I'll fill out the survey. You have a good weekend too. :) I like nature sounds, so I'll check that out.

    Hello. I'm new.

    I know I've heard it many times before when laying down ever since I was a kid, so I figured that was normal. It is just very strange that I've been hearing it in my left ear all the time since Saturday after I was around that loud music. That, along with the pressure, is what is scaring...

    Hello. I'm new.

    So the cricket sound pulsated? What I hear and feel is more like a normal pulse because it doesn't ring or sound like crickets. When I am lying down I can sometimes hear it in my right ear, but not when I'm sitting or standing up. The ringing I hear is definitely separate from that. I'm glad...

    Hello. I'm new.

    I wondered about that. I read somewhere that the pitch of the sound you hear is the one you've lost. Mine is extremely high. None of the sound files of tinnitus I've heard reach the pitch mine is. If I did have it for some time before I noticed, I may have just thought it was from the hum of my...

    Hello. I'm new.

    Yes. I may have had it before. It feels a little scary to think about. I wish I would have known about this earlier so I could have prevented more damage. I listened to music all the time before this all started--loudly, but never to the point where I thought it was painful. Sometimes I noticed...

    Hello. I'm new.

    Thank you :) I am trying to be calm, though I'm kind of depressed at the moment. I noticed slight ringing and noise sensitivity over a week ago after having earbuds in for a while and then about 6 days ago I went to a wedding with extremely loud music. Even people shouting over the table...

    Hello. I'm new.

    Yes. She is spoiled. Hehe I also have a dog and a beta fish too! How many cats and dogs do you have? Those kitties and birds must really appreciate you feeding them. :) The pulsing goes along with my heartbeat and is separate from the continuous ringing. I feel pressure as well.. Thank you...

    Hello. I'm new.

    Thank you :) I will find a good avatar. I'll find some good ear plugs to bring with me. Glad there are people here to talk to.

    Hello. I'm new.

    Hi. I started noticing my ears were ringing a little over a week ago. The doctor told me it would go away, but I'm scared. I think it's from loud music. Seems to be in my left ear (a really high pitched sound) as well as the soft sound of my pulse. I have good hearing according to an...
