Jiri, it's hard to say for sure because the science of it all is so uncertain. Stuff like city noise and dishes definitely get above safe volume...
Alan, Sorry you're having to deal with this. It's crazy when simply being able to enjoy silence becomes impossible. I do something similar for...
I'd just mention to be careful about using hearing protection too much. Most experts say to only wear it when you're around unsafe noise...

Ah man, sorry about that. Especially on Christmas. I'm not sure exactly what to tell you, but I do know that wearing ear plugs can make T seem...
Hey Ty, sorry you're going through this. Since your T is so recent there's still a somewhat decent chance it will go away. Some people have...
Well said, and I couldn't agree more. :)
Sorry about your T getting worse. Major bummer for sure. I'm with you in spirit, and hope that it will change it's course either on its own or...
Yeah, at times when my T seemed to be mellowing out I've done the same thing, and was pretty annoyed when it went up again and I had to go back to...
I have a hard time sleeping with my loud T, and one thing I do that really helps is to set aside 10-12 hours for sleep instead of the 6-9 hours I...
Im sorry you're having to deal with this. Since yours is so recent, there's definitely a chance it will go away. There's currently no cure for...
Sorry you've been dealing with that. Ive got prettt bat tinnitus/hyperacusis, and it's a real bummer. Since yours started so recently hopefully it...
Thanks Rob, Merry Christmas and a happy New Year to you as well. :)
Dang, mind's higher than 15,000 hz. Before I made mine worse by flushing my ears with water (never do and never let a doctor/nurse do it either,...

Tempest, I too really hope that Frequency Therapeutics are successful. If they aren't however, there's still always a chance that new research...

I wouldn't expect it too, but it's hard to say. One thing that can make it much worse is flushing water in your ears (syringing) to remove ear...
I agree, it doesn't sound like tinnitus. WARNING: If it is a build up of ear wax causing it I advise not to try flushing it our with water(aka...
Tinnitus is really lame, no doubt. As far as getting better, from what I've read, different things work to varying degrees for different people....
Good idea, I am going to be warning people as well. The ENT I saw a little while ago was dismissive of my insistance that it was caused by this,...
He was very right to tell you to avoid water contact. Lots of people (including me) get tinnitus/hyperacusis or make it worse by trying...
So, like he said, I guess it can be done manually, which is much safer, though it will take longer. Definately worth it to prevent the hells of...
I'm sorry your ears were syringed with water. Mine is caused by that too, only it was me trying to flush it out myself. Now I have really bad...
http://tolbecs.co.nz/ear-conditions/ear-care/ear-syringing I too warn you about getting your ears syringed. I tried to do it myself a few years...
