This analogy is maddening to me. This person will be back when she gets truly debilitating T 24/7 shrill siren piercing tinnitus. The kind that...

5 1/2 years and I'm still wondering the same thing:banghead:

Nope.

I wouldn't worry either, enjoy...well not enjoy ;) but be glad the mild T is what you have and assume it'll stay that way. Live while you can!!:)

Ambien for sleep. The schools in U.S. are the same so it seems to be universal. "how to deal with messed up organizations and irrational people"...

I have horrible chronic pain but I prefer that to T. I hope you get some relief soon.

I was reluctantly to take drugs in the beginning. Now I'll take anything that will help and for me the benzos do help. Sadly my doctor won't...

How much of this are you taking?

Seriously? Wow, guess I'm in the 2%:( Lisab, good advice from Eric. Bless your heart for taking the time to be here and trying to help. Just...

I'm glad you found the source and hopefully it can be corrected. I'm glad you are not giving up but please remember you are only a few months in,...

I've had them in knees and wrists, it never does anything to T. Good luck.

I think it was from medication.

I have hearing loss in the upper ranges, above 12KHZ which is where my tinnitus is. I had to go to a special audiologist to have this measured as...

I had the same fear the first time I flew with T but now I like it because I always sit right over/near engine and if I am lucky it does mask my...

It is my underestanding that amtriptyline has sometimes helped lower tinnitus, do a search. I've taken it for anxiety, it was a low dose and it...

no

Does anyone know if this can be used for just tinnitus alone, no hearing loss? I can't get ahold of them to ask.

I love this idea and think there is such a need for it. I would not make a good volunteer as I am in a dark place myself and don't feel that is...

They did not work for me but they also refunded my money.

No. Reason, my audiologist said tinnitus is like a 10,000 piece puzzle and we have 2 pieces.

It did nothing for me.

Yes, mine was measured in the 12KHZ - 14KHZ range too. Fun eh?

I remember exactly when I got tinnitus but I don't have a video and I was just sitting in a chair, no noise, nothing to cause it that moment.

I'm so sorry. I was at my childs school one day and the firedrill went off when I was standing right under it:( It was terrible and the spike...

Really:) barbed wire with glass shards and a nice long nail right in the arch and heel! Yeah, habituation would come very slowly:woot:

Excellent Blujay!!! So true.

Just try to enjoy the low times as much as you can. I sometimes wish mine was more random instead of constant although that too would take time...

I take ambien often, it's my escape from T and it makes no difference to my T volume or pitch.

Good luck finding someone who understands. If it isn't happening to them, they don't care to hear about it. It's probably better if you get...

I have heard that this drug doesn't really work that well unless you do the 300mg 2 to 3 x a day. Of course it seems no two people ever get the...

I have the sound pillow, it does not work for me nor does listening to white noise on a computer or radio BUT white noise does work for me if i...

That's great! Mine has never improved, it has probably gotten worse. Tinnitus is all so different for everyone. I used to hope and pray it...

It's a personal choice. It's not on the black box list and since I already take a few on that list I'd be willing to try Trobalt to see if it...

I'm going to Walgreens right now!

I never had db measured just hz, I had to go to an audiologist that has special equipment. It is my understanding that standard equipment...

Or five years plus. My refrigerator started making a new noise last night. At first I thought it was a new noise in my head. I realized it was...

Sleeping. I cannot take a nice bath anymore, can't wear my masker in the tub.

I've been tempted to put my "screeching" on my iphone and when I'm with people just turn it on and let it play on and on. I know if I play the...

I so agree about deep depression. I never understood it either and was a "pick yourself up by the bootstraps" type. Depression is such a dark,...

I have no tears left. I'm past the 5 1/2 year mark with no hope in sight. I only wish for a low day here and there but don't even get that. If...

I've been battling physical pain for 10 years, it rarely brings me to tears. T brings me to tears often so don't feel bad if you need a good cry....

That's good, that you don't need the drugs and the good dreams:) I had insomnia before this nightmare began so there is no sleep for me without...

I'd go. I'd also get some anti-depressants anti anxiety. I'm sorry you are suffering so.

I take Ambien and sleep when I need to escape, which sadly I do far too often, I'm worried my GP isn't going to give me another prescription.

Mine is in the 12,000-14,ooo range. No it never goes away. Maybe you are having a spike and it will settle back down to your normal range. Try...

When I have a blessed low T day this theory works, if I think about it it is there but it is easily put into the background. Unfortunately by day...

Yes most ENT's are worthless as far as tinnitus goes so go there knowing your questions and possible solutions while you are early on in this...

We all understand. T is a very isolating thing in addition to everything else it is. I think glynis suggestion to sit down with your mom and let...

I have two boys. I did the best I could but there was no joy, just try to get thru each day so I can go to bed and hopefully sleep to escape the...

You'll still hear it underwater:(

highly unlikely

So where does that put me when I'm at the 5 1/2 year mark? :(

Either way be grateful:)

My H did resolve after 6 months. T, no relief, none. Push through because there isn't any other option.

Yes, another $400.00 wasted.

because they are ignorant

It seems you are doing everything right. All we can do is wait. It does teach one patience.

The only one that I've found that helps me is the Moses Lang CD, last track, from the Oregon Hearing Institute.

that people sitting under a bridge with tinfoil on their head probably have tinnitus.
