Separate names with a comma.
Just noticed that I can still hear mild tinnitus in my left ear if I plug it. This is not the case for the other ear. I kind of think that I have...
Nope. My hypochondria philosophy is to avoid diagnosis (and therefore knowledge of impending death) as long as possible.
I've been getting some random moments of it in recent weeks and when they came on, I was already worrying this was eventually going to become the...
Had it for about 2 weeks. I started tolerating stuff better, but I wasn't sure if it was because I was just learning to tolerate the sensation or...
My hyperacusis has been basically gone since a couple nights ago, except when I'm lying down. And this relief in that symptom was brought about by...
I think I just heard some tinnitus coming on while I was watching a video. Is this a matter of your ears being more at risk when they're more...
Doesn't matter anyway. I can't do surgery. I'm terrified of anesthesia (even since I learned it's the equivalent to knocking you into a...
1. Whenever I'm exposed to certain sounds over a long duration (more than a few seconds), my ear starts to feel full...like pressure changes on an...
I'm not talking about acoustic neuroma. I'm talking about a malignant tumor. You can find some people who survived brain tumors, but you can also...
Why? So they can ask me a bunch of questions and say nothing in response, as they did when I saw them on and off for 20 years? Here's the thing:...
I had always thought that "tinnitus" just referred to that high-pitched ringing I would sometimes randomly get in my ear for several seconds out...
Does anybody know what mechanism this is? When enough of the sounds that bother my ear are going on for long enough, my ear starts to feel like...
In my case, that's gotta be nonsense. EXTERNAL SOUNDS are directly causing everything. Whenever it's quiet, I'm basically fine.
I read an article about people who killed themselves because of intractable hyperacusis. I mean, can't they just surgically make people deaf?
You won't save your life if there's a brain tumor. Brain tumor = terminal. Every time. I would rather live in fear of cancer than know I have it....
See, but the whole reason they do the MRI is to check for a tumor. If it's a malignant tumor, I'm dead. If it's not a malignant tumor, there's...
If it's not an acoustic neuroma, I guess it's a malignant brain tumor then? I don't see any other plausible explanation for sudden, intractable...
I woke up last week on Monday morning before a dental appointment (which I was anxious about) and noticed that my voice was vibrating in my left...
Well, I think what I have is defined as "hyperacusis," not tinnitus. The sensation is always brought about by noise. No noise and I don't get it....
With certain sounds such as the air conditioning running, it starts out as a windows-down-on-the-highway kind of sound, and eventually saturates...
I feel like I have dog hearing, only instead of hearing high-pitched sounds, I hear every low sound. Every machine in the supermarket was right up...
Certain frequencies of sound are just killing me.
I don't hear my breath. It's only my voice and external sounds causing the problem. As I'm typing, the fan for my air conditioning just started...
I'm not even sure this counts as "tinnitus", but I figured the term is just used for hearing distortions in general. I just woke up with this...
