@Strawberryblonde, After a brutal month long spike it is finally calming down. Not at baseline bit much better. Dealing with mom in hospice was...
@SharonBell At night. Also take hydroxizine.
@SharonBell I am not sure how old you are but it is expected that we lose higher frequencies as we age often by the time enter your 30s. There is...
@SharonBell And he thinks that there’s still a very good chance it’s related to my TMJ. My TMJ related headaches have gotten appreciably worse in...
@SharonBell I do. I have for years and it has not bothered my T. I think the risk is very low. If you look hard enough you will find someone that...
@MindOverMatter Did your tinnitus improve at all?
@MindOverMatter, went fine but they don’t do extended because there are no benchmarks for higher frequencies not part of the normal soundscape....
Hearing test today! Wish me luck please.
@DeanD. Hope not. I try really hard not to eat crunchy things. Last night the sound of my voice wasn’t very loud because the ambient noise was...
@MindOverMatter Agreed but every place is loud now. And I find myself angry when others come in to dine and ruin my quiet.
@MindOverMatter Thank you. To clarify, It wasn’t the noise level that made my tinnitus bothersome, it was the occlusion effect of the heavy duty...
That is a good sign that you may habituating.
Not really. The family may not have wanted to highlight the fact that he died while using an illicit drug as Fentanyl is used for pain in end...
This is an acoustic trauma. It should improve in time. Good luck.
Went to dinner for my husband’s birthday. Used the heavy duty ear plugs. Listened to my ears scream all night. Even the drinks didn’t help.
Where did you hear this? I take it. I looked up all side effects and tinnitus was less than 0.001%. Hardly causal. Well said!
I thought Gabapentin listed tinnitus as a side effect. I think it is rare though but a risk nonetheless. But like all meds, it is individual.
@SharonBell I have TMJ. Same symptoms. Aggravates tinnitus big time. I am a big clencher. It can change the nature and frequency of Tinnitus....
I take Robaxin for another reason and it helps my TTTS a lot. My tinnitus counselor, audiologist with tinnitus, takes Turmeric --- swears by it,...
@SharonBell It never used to bother me because I always assumed was related to my head cold because it was the only time it ever happened to me....
@SharonBell Looked online to see if congestion can cause head noise. And it all pointed me towards tinnitus. Whaaat? It’s not like I have it...
@SharonBell I saw you post abt head T. I never really had, or so I thought. My T has always been in my ears. But for most of my life when I’ve...
Anyone get intermittent roaring in head when congested? This happens to me when I get a bad head cold. Don’t have it otherwise.
I wonder the same thing. But supplements are not regulated so whether or not one will increase tinnitus is unclear.
They do not do the acoustic reflext test on me specifically because I have tinnitus. I sent my ENT some of the information from this thread to...
Yeah, I didn’t even know that reactivity was considered a type of hyperacusis until I read it on Tinnitus Talk. I have an audiologist who has...
I think that if audiograms could damage hearing, we would have more than 50 million with tinnitus. I work with a number of audiologists who...
Sorry to hear that. I do not share the majority of your symptoms. Everyday sounds do not bother me or spike my tinnitus. Do you have hearing...
I am so with you. At this point I would just be happy with improvement. Forget the cure. My tinnitus has just changed exponentially in the last...
@SharonBell How bad is your damage? I mean on audio gram?
Oh My. This is a frequency unknown to me. A tea kettle is lower I think. Who has this and has improved?
Yes. I do recall that. And am so happy for him. Mine just escalated and I don’t really know why. I never thought anything could be this high...
Currently, OTO is the only app with a cicada sound that blends or even partially masks my new even higher frequency tinnitus. I didn’t think it...
Have you done it? Are you speaking from experience?
So sorry to hear that you are going through this. While the meds are known to have tinnitus as a side effect, they are not know to be ototoxic,...
Nortriptyline and Amitriptyline have tinnitus as a known side effect. However, as with any medication, it is an individual thing. They are often...
@BrOKeN_1 @Ryan Scott Thank you both. Worst year of my life on top of other medical issues and this awful condition.
Pure tone ring in the L ear is back. Had it x 1 month pst spring. Had it x 5 months in 2021 following HL. HL resolved as did T.
Brody. [ATTACH]
Ugh this spike. Not helping that my mom was placed in hospice. Dad died then past March. Too much. Wish T would settle.
@Robster The higher pitch is the worst. Like a table saw in my ear. Probably not as loud as I experience it but so HF. Hear it over everything....
I think I clearly said that it could cause a spike. I don’t think that my counselor ever indicated that it wasn’t so, he just said that the...
@Strawberryblonde how are you? Been off for a while. Spike settled. Now a new one. Not sure why. Loud restaurant with ear plugs. Probably...
@BrOKeN_1. How are you? Been off for a while. Was doing pretty good and then ended up with another inexplicable spike. Friends took me to dinner...
Hey there. Mine was a week and a half ago. Friends took me to a super loud restaurant. I had what I thought was ample ear protection. My custom...
What about earplugs? Might help you to celebrate with family.
We got a Frenchie in May. He is not an overly loud or frequent barker but does bark to get up on your lap. I was so anxious about it. I talked to...
Agreed. So unfair. And I take care of my hearing.
@Nick23 started couple hours after I was out to dinner for my birthday a week and a half ago. Very loud restaurant but I used what I thought was...
@Nick23 I usually use it if I suspect inflammation. Because that’s really the only point of taking it. I’ve had hearing loss in the past and it’s...
@Nick23 Sorry. I’ve literally been off ofTT for a few months. I guess you can tell the pattern of T spikes by the frequency of my posts. As...
Massive spike. Been doing well. Went to restaurant on birthday with ear protection. Now reactive even higher pitched T.
Except relatively quiet, but very high frequency tinnitus may also be very difficult to mask but not necessarily considered loud. That is my case.
I’m sorry I’ve been off TT for quite a while so I didn’t notice your comment. I always try to take a good 21 days of of prednisone. Two weeks at a...
Mo8409. Thanks. Sure hope so. It’s so annoying when you’ve been doing well for a while and then all of a sudden bom. Per my DecibelMeter and it...
But tinnitus volume is somewhat subjective. Right? I can have very low level tinnitus and it can be extremely bothersome and intrusive and...
Been well. Went to an outdoor grad party and didn’t wear my earplugs. Now in a a spike. I was there all of 2 hrs. Such a fool.
@kingsfan, it’s been a while. I haven’t been on here in months. I’m sorry to hear you’re still struggling. I’m not doing so fabulous either. I...
It takes time. Lots of it. Hang in there.
So sorry to hear about what you are going through. Do you mind me asking what your noise trauma was? Did you lose hearing? I’ve developed a new...
