Agree 100%.

I totally understand it would be good to get it examined. My hyperacusis would worsen if I got my PT examined, it's a difficult situation....
@Greg Sacramento it's a theory of course, but if that were the case, it would be really cool!
@tiniturtle I have to choose with lesser of two evils. Getting it checked would be a huge risk as well... I could get permanent setback to my...
I know, you're absolutely correct! But because of my hyperacusis I can't even handle a trip to the hospital let alone do much testing. If I didn't...

Have you heard of a new clinic in Switzerland, called Pegasos Swiss? They supposedly accept everyone (except mental illness as main diagnosis)....
A lot of people have multiple tones, so it's not at all uncommon. Sadly. I hope you can find a way to habituate! It will take time but it surely...
Yeah I feel you. It's a heavy burden to carry. It's truly absurd. But one day at a time my friend :)
That's great! I feel I'm both mentally and physically weak lol. But I'm still hanging onto life.
So sorry to hear that :( I hope it would get easier for you. Know you're extremely strong for fighting this. It's not easy, but you can do it!
I'm so sorry to hear that. Have you been limiting your sound exposure for that time? If you've been listening pink noise, chances are it has been...
That type of chronic pain is very typical for severe pain hyperacusis. Also the sensation that your ears don't feel normal. I really do hope you...
Yes, delayed reaction with hyperacusis is very common. You could be exposed to bad noise midday and develop symptoms on the evening. The reaction...
Get custom earplugs! I regret so much not getting them in the beginning.
I very rarely post for support on this site anymore. But I just gotta say that I'm completely exhausted with my tinnitus & pulsatile tinnitus &...
Most important right now is to let your auditory system rest so it can heal. Really try to limit the amount of noise you're exposed to daily. I'm...
Read this article: https://hearinghealthfoundation.org/blogs/ears-on-fire This man was misdiagnosed with TMJ first. Just saying, don't ignore the...
@PeteJ have you considered if you have pain hyperacusis? Since you live in a noisy area, your ears can't rest and therefore the pain is chronic....
In my opinion overprotection isn't harmful. It's surely a debated topic. Underprotection is much more harmful than overprotection. Protect your...
There are four types, annoyance, fear, loudness and pain hyperacusis. You can have all or combination, or just one. So you definitely have pain...
Just because your hyperacusis seems healed now, it doesn't mean it will stay away. In many cases first noise trauma(s) heal fairly well and people...

@TheDanishGirl there's also Doctor Banerjee who does the surgery in the UK. So, a closer to travel for those located in Europe :)

Is your hyperacusis due to acoustic trauma? If it's pain hyperacusis my guess is that TRT would make it worse. I'd say protect your ears and stay...
No probs! If you need any more advice let me know if I can help :) You can do this!
This is something you have to figure out yourself. When I first got tinnitus & hyperacusis I found I couldn't listen to "loud" music like rock...
Not to scare you, but it's very important to be careful with noise when you have hyperacusis. Ears can usually bounce back from setbacks if they...
Hey, I totally know how you feel. No matter how hard you try to protect yourself, something always happens. I'm 21 too and my ear issues totally...
I'm sorry you're feeling this way. My tinnitus is still mild, but more reactive and I notice it more because I have to wear ear protection a lot...
That sounds like hyperacusis. I'm sure if you protect your ears and give them quiet rest, your pain will lessen. Just be more careful in the...
You have developed hyperacusis, that's the cause of your ear pain. It can get better over time, if you don't get more acoustic traumas. To prevent...
Those symptoms are very normal for hyperacusis. I'm sorry you're going through this. It's a very special type of hell. During nighttime your ears...
You really have to protect your ears with plugs and muffs. Peltor X5A is the best one if you're needing very good protection. Your ear pain might...
Overprotection is the least of your concerns, I'd recommend you to use plugs/muffs whenever you feel uncomfortable. Reintroduce sounds veery...
Overprotection is a myth, it won't harm you in the long run. Underprotecting on the other hand, that can cause serious damage. When you plug, plug...
By protecting your hearing you won't be risking making hyperacusis worse! It's actually the opposite :)
I'd recommend you to stop trt if its hurting you. Wear earplugs/muffs and give your ears a chance to heal. Dont expose yourself to sounds that...
We also really need awareness for hyperacusis. Severe form of it is so debilitating and completely destroys the person suffering from it.

Did the surgery lessen the symptoms you have been experiencing? I'm sorry you're going through this. Hope you're doing well!
Too loud for me unfortunately, my hyperacusis is now extremely severe :(
If i were you, id take a gap year and go live somewhere really quiet. Or if you cant use earplugs or muffs always when you feel you need them. But...
You should protect your ears from sounds that seem too loud and/or painful. I tried to go through noise incidents without plugs sometimes and...
@valeri how are you feeling today? Really sorry you're going through this.
Sorry you're going through this. There are great hyperacusis support groups on facebook with good information, if you need that. I hope you're...
Thank you, i hope you get better too!
Unfortunately my right ear is so bad now that i cant stand talking. I might have to learn sign language lol. But thank you ♥️
Now that my hyperacusis got severe I'm going to take a break from university studies and focus on staying in silence indoors and hope it gets...
