That’s great to hear and yes everything will be okay.
Just been living with tinnitus basically.
Bad spike this morning. Been bugging me all day but could be lack of a proper sleep schedule.
Sure the sound is annoying but what’s worse is the tingly feeling. Does anyone else get that?
@Ryan Scott I went to a pub with a dance floor. Def was too loud.
Thanks @Hardwell and ya I am sure it will pass for both of us. Usually does!
So it turns out it was just a weird thick hair. Nothing serious in the end. But hurt like hell taking it out.
Dealing with a spike right now. Mostly because I went out without ear defenders.
Soooo a roller coaster over the past few weeks haha. Not tinnitus related but the stress has made me forget about it so that’s good haha
@makeyourownluck actually I’m slightly hesitant about amoxicillin because my sister had a horrible reaction to it. But I think it’ll be fine tbh
Thanks guys, I think I'll be okay. The infection sort of gave me tinnitus in my left ear and I haven't felt or heard a difference in my ears just...
Went to the doctor apparently I don't have hay fever, it's an infection.. anyways got prescribed doxycycline.
So lately I’ve been having severe allergies and the only thing that’s helped is Sudafed. But now my left ear has started ringing. I suspect it’s...
My tinnitus is getting back to "normal" today. Which is funny cuz I almost find comfort in my normal sound hahaha
Developed a single pure tone in left ear. Might be due to allergies tho.
This year has been so shit for my tinnitus.
@makeyourownluck yes very weird to have the wire there. I’ll share it whenever it’s out. I’d rather not share it yet as I want it to be over with...
Once the wire is out I’ll post a picture haha. Don’t want to fuel my hypochondria until it’s been safely removed.
@DimLeb I have to say that I have probably had it there for months and ignored it because I thought it was tinnitus as usual. Been told enough...
@Steph1710 it does have its drawbacks. Like waiting 2 weeks is a bit crap. However I am in no pain and my hearing is fine, otherwise I would be...
@Rockman to be honest I’m from the US and would rather wait than be stuck with a big bill. Been thru it before and it will be free at the end. Not...
This experience has definitely triggered my hypochondria haha
I have absolutely no idea how the wire got in my ear. It’s very strange. It looks like a small coil - however it has pierced my ear drum. I took...
@makeyourownluck Thanks, apparently they said they put me on an urgent list so I should see someone within 2 weeks.
Does anyone know if I will receive a letter or a call for my urgent ENT appointment thru the NHS?
I’ll report back once the wire has been removed. It probably won’t make much difference to my overall T but a few things make sense now.
Been referred to an ENT to remove a metal wire in my ear, does anyone know how long it takes to receive an urgent referral?
So it appears I have a small metallic wire stuck in my ear. Been referred to an ENT to remove it. WEIRD.
Sunday Monday Tuesday tinnitus has been pretty quiet. Let’s see how long this lasts!
After a hellish day yesterday today my T is really low. This spike is the worst one to date.
T seems to be back to spike mode. Was a nice 2 days of quiet.
Tinnitus is very quiet and the static seems to have gone completely for now.
Not yet, I have a doctor's appointment on the 23rd. But usually then there’s a lengthy referral process. I am starting to think I should just look...
Thanks. I experienced a flutter before but right now it’s definitely static and a high pitch whirr.
That is very interesting. Hopefully “rare” not meaning untreatable? Do you have any good threads on finding more information on this? I have had...
I like this plan. Honestly, I did this a while back as well and have been doing this over the past few years. It has worked for me, however it...
I definitely feel my tinnitus. It's like a zapping going on inside my head, it doesn't hurt necessarily but sometimes it feels like a burning...
Pulsatile tinnitus is gone. However I am dealing with a spike. Not sure if they’re related.
I feel like I've been thru this before but not sure actually. Masking doesn't seem to be as effective as it used to be.
So today, my hearing is back to "normal" however, my T has been buzzing all day a bit louder.
Ear has been ringing very loudly all night. Very frustrated
My hearing was muffled and tinnitus got really loud. Has anyone ever experienced this?
Was just asleep, my hearing almost went out on my right ear. Tinnitus has gone mad loud suddenly and slowly coming back.
Today the pulsating has clamed down a lot. I can hear it very faintly even in the quiet. Not sure how tomorrow will be!
Sunday night I was laying down and felt a sharp pain in my right ear and about an hour later I heard whush whush whush whush... hopefully I can...
Sounds like a windy washing machine in my ear.
It's finally happened, I developed pulsatile tinnitus. It was one of my greatest fears but just have to get on with it, I suppose.
Last night my tinnitus got reallly loud and my hearing went down for about an hour. Scary but I'm back to normal today.
hello everyone, hope you're doing okay. It's been about 5 years now with my little friend. I'm alright haha
Does anyone else experience a spike when they have indigestion? Might be a coincidence but usually happens when I have heartburn.
Hi, sorry for the late reply. I haven't logged on in ages. They did not help me, to be honest the only thing that truly seems to have made a...
Just checking in again, things are okay. New sounds in my left ear which appeared about 8 months ago but i'm fine overall.
I massaged my jaw a few moments ago and has somehow given me some sort of relief.
Definitely not quite the same BUT I think the metaphor is very clear here. Thanks for sharing. This was very insightful and I actually found it...
I'm definitely not the Dalai Lama haha. But I agree and I would also say that I am in the "severe" category with my tinnitus. It's definitely...
I think I get you; like taming the beast by confronting it? I find that this experiment was helpful to me because I no longer really say "I hear a...
Hi guys, Here is something that I have done for quite some time now. I've done this for years and I don't really know what to do with this or how...
I just don't want to come across as disingenuous because I am still trying to figure out my own head.
I want to make a video speaking about my tinnitus but I find it difficult because although I feel I have habituated, I still struggle.
The other day I was using the toilet and my "bad ear" suddenly dipped; like I couldn't hear and my tinnitus got really loud. It's fine now.
