I've never been tested for B12 deficiency but I've read on some websites that B12 supplementation is not always good. Don't we get enough B12...

I think high dose of melatonine is more then 5mg ... I've personally changed strategy a little bit, now I take 2mg of Melatonin and 100mg of 5htp...

For me it's the other way around I started with high pitched tinnitus 20 years ago and then had a few more when I had my burnout 4 years ago. But...

Yeah like a real orchestra ... ;)

Thanks Picassocat for the links, I also found quite a lot of links on the benefit of melatonin on other health issues including cancer etc, and...

Yes you're right, melatonin seems to do a lot of good things, especially when taking it long term. For the moment 2mg works best for me before...

Thanks Alex and sorry for my late reply, I had some very hard and busy weeks here. From what I read I guess there are a lot of people with...

Wow that's quite a lot. 20mg does that really works? And up to 120mg wow that's killer! I've been thinking of taking more and I read some people...

Yes it's a complete concert in times :( I had a terrible buzz (fortunately it's gone) which drove me nuts but again it was during extremely...

Did you try the following supplements? NAC Calcium (I know a lot of people talk about magnesium but calcium also can have a positive calming...

yikes not cool ... but this shows again the complexity of T, take care :)

Sounds a bit like mine Tybs, they often change, and again stress is the real reason for the onset of some new and sometimes fleeing T's, so that's...

Thanks, good to know I've always thought that most people just had one sound. Yes I'll habituate, just a bad period, we've been there before ;)

Indeed, hereditary can be possible, sincerely hard to be sure, each time I got mine after intense stress periods as did my recent new tones, so...

Get her the guitar Don, playing music is great, not all people will get T and it doesn't necessarily come from noise either, many other factors...

It's really hard to know exactly what causes T, I have several T's and it got a little worse more then a week ago while it was getting...

from my own experiences so far I can only agree ...

Congrats, great story ! :)

Hi, Yes seems comparable to mine but in most cases a shower doesn't even cover my tinnitus, only very loud environments like concerts, what is...

How do you define your severity Don? Mine is quite severe at moments, high hissing since 20 years which varies on a scale from 7-9 /10 as I can...

I also noticed that my T is worse if I stay too much time in silent rooms and better when I listen to music at higher levels. Maybe the silence...

Even if the study is incomplete as it doesn't say what came first stress or T, it's still interesting to me and maybe other people. Reading this...

Who said it's their fault? Listen, I have had the most dark ideas when my new sounds appeared 4 years ago right after a burnout, and even if it's...

With lifestyle changes, that can be quite a lot of things, eating habits, exercise, trying to cope better with stress doing yoga, mindful...

I completely agree with you, I'd also like to find a solution for my tinnitus, but people seem to forget that lifestyle change may be as important...

Thanks this is very interesting and glad you feel better, and your report again confirm my own conclusions, I think I have had this condition...

Thanks Hazel, indeed very though question From living with tinnitus since 20 years now, self experimentation and a lot of lecture regarding...

Sophrology is very powerful in many regards, I'm considering to do it again this year here in France. I already did a few sessions 15 years ago...

I tried this diet, but it didn't do anything to me to be honest, I only tried 2 weeks, but I felt a lot of tension when eating that much meat as...

It's true that exposure to music, even if it's loud seems to help better then silence here ... but what actually helps most is less stress, more...

This is very interesting, my tinnitus seems to be much worse when I clench my teeth at night, so the jaw muscles may play a role here?

Yes indeed we're all different, I can only speak from my own experience and just like you I'm almost constantly in fight/flight mode since I...

That's really difficult to confirm. A friend told me and he had tinnitus when he had stressful periods when he was child, and and that time he...

Saw this earlier today on Facebook, interesting. Seems neuro-inflammation can come from different sources (stress, food, even noise at it seems,...

Interesting, I have some form of PTSD and my cortisol levels are too high, which isn't good. A friend suggested to do sophrologie, and the more I...

We're not all the same and I've never said it's "only" stress or anxiety related. Tinnitus can have different causes but in my case and those...

Hello, Interesting, may I ask you which food additives had a real effect on your T? thanks,

Because I felt that I could obtain the same results with other techniques and keeping stress lower.

Some update 2 weeks after my vacation. Some of my T's seem to come back from time to time and the pattern is always the same and related to...

That's strange, wasn't that already tested before ? I have heard that after cutting the nerve some people still had T ?

I had this done twice, last year and the first time it worked very well, had indeed less T in the morning and slept better, but it doesn't last...

I agree with you, all of the ENT's I saw just made me feel worse because they told me it's 100% noise and hearing damage, and there's nothing we...

I took some Methylfolate + a coffee + nicotamine ribosone this morning, my high hissing T has lowered significantly. I also had good feedback on...

I believe there's a link between OCD and T, I have both (+PTSD) but since my EMDR therapy I feel things are getting better, a lot of sleep, and...

GABA is good for relaxing, but it makes me very depressive after a few days, but the same goes for Magnesium, very strange.

Well in the first days two of my T's were completely gone, no way to hear them even with the biggest effort, but one seems to come back (morse...

Thanks John!

Indeed and I have the impression that getting back to work is not really helping things, I can hear slightly the old T's coming back, it's much...

Interesting post. I know for sure there are several physical issues that can cause Tinnitus (loud noise, ear infections, sleep apnea ...) but I...

I finally stopped taking most supplements, even melatonine seems to worsen my sleep apnea, really strange, everything that makes me feel more...

Done ;)

Hi Autumnly, I can understand you and I have been there for the last two years too, don't give up, the road may be long but there are solution...

oh sorry if my mail came over like that Autumnly, certainly wasn't the intention, more the opposite and I don't think I said this will help most...

This is the problem that most of us T sufferers will never accept that the problem may lie in our way to see/feel things, I really feel that in my...

this is interesting, I have mixed results with Mag, it makes my sleep apneas worse, I have used too much Mag in the past years, Magnesium...
