Bill . . . just thought I'd update this thread by letting you know I have some Peltor X5A's arriving tomorrow, on your recommendation. There...

Cool . . . good to know. I'll definitely factor that into the final decision. I agree 100%. It's impossible for anyone to relate, if they...

Michael . . . thanks for the additional question-answering and advice. Don't worry . . . I haven't been doing anything over the last 6 months to...

It appears as though I may have just been misquoted here. A screen-shot of a previous post of mine was attached in this thread, as proof of...

Michael . . . thanks very much for your response. The Audiologist is getting back to me to arrange a time for an appointment. I told him that...

That's what I assumed. Although, I've never actually used 'foam' plugs. I use tapered Silicone ones, which just push straight in. However if...

Michael . . . this 'renown' ENT I saw earlier in the week, wants me to get an in-ear WNG for my Hyperacusis.. I'm all in favor of this, due to...

Seems strange that your drinking or pooping would make your dog stop barking. Still, I guess . . . whatever it takes!

Thanks for the links. This all makes sense. I can understand the MRI thing. Fortunately I didn't get a spike . . . but I had one with double...

Yes . . . definitely looks as though this is the way to go.

Wow! Makes me pleased I don't work out . . . or gamble.

Thanks for that. Although I'm kind of married to my existing setup/routine. I just use simple Silicone ear plugs, which are tapered and stepped....

Thanks. I'm with you all the way.

I hear you. Really hope you get over your spike soon. I've only had one spike so far. It lasted 3 weeks . . . and that was long enough.

Me too. And it looks as though I'm going to keep doing that.

Thanks Bill. This is the methodology I was already following . . . and I think it's looking as though it may be prudent to continue doing so....

I'm getting the impression that's the way to go. Plus . . . 'insurance' is always a good thing to have.

You're right. I think I should continue at least having protection 'on standby'.

Yes . . . I can personally relate to the sudden, unexpected noise exposure thing . . . thanks to a super-loud security alarm a couple of months...

Hey, thanks for the video. The only reason I actually bought the Bose was for an international flight. My T & H subsequently worsened to the...

Thought I'd mention that I seem to have the exact same thing. I can't notice it when there is a lot of ambient noise around . . . just when I'm...

C'mon man . . . you can't just end on a cliffhanger like that! Did you move? Did it come back? Seriously though . . . how are things going for...

Hi everyone. I'm afraid I'm still confused about something . . . From what I've read on here . . . am I correct in understanding that Tinnitus...

Thanks Contrast. However I'm afraid as far as I'm aware, conditions such as T & H aren't recognized as 'disabilities' in Australia. Even if they...

Definitely the 'abnormal loudness' thing. The terrible distortion I get (mainly from nearby sounds), hurts my ears. If that's what's meant by...

Still hoping this will just be a temporary spike . . . but that's not doing much to help with the depression I'm feeling at the moment. Things...

Thanks very much. Something like that might definitely be worth considering . . . as I'd hate to have to rule out air travel. Anyway . . . my...

No . . . I don't think so. It's probably hard to explain. It's not really that my T gets louder. It's kind of a different sound/sensation that I...

The main reason I actually bought my Bose was in anticipation of flying to visit my family at Xmas. It's a 3 hour flight and I booked the ticket...

Thanks. I've only been experiencing this for a fraction of the time you have . . . but I can already relate to those feelings and emotions you...

Hey, thanks for taking the time to help out with this. It's appreciated. To be honest, that's not something I've particularly taken notice of....

I've noticed since I started looking at this site that ENT's don't exactly seem to be revered for their vast knowledge on the subject of T . . ....

So did you mention Prednisone just because it's commonly recommended . . . or because you've taken it yourself? Like when you said you 'find it...

Things obviously haven't changed in that department. My ENT a few months ago, didn't say a thing to me about needing to be careful or about...

Hi @Vicki14 Thanks for the empathy. At least we both still have jobs we're able to work at . . . despite hazards lurking around every corner....

Thanks @Red Yes, I've seen Prednisone mentioned a bit on here. Prior to T & H . . . I've never had any real health issues to speak off. Never...

Thanks @RCP1 . . . I appreciate that. Yes . . . I'm definitely hoping 'short burst=temporary spike'.

Thanks for the sympathy . . . and the info. I have Bose Quiet Comfort 35 II . . . and I've discovered just from using them that they work like...

Thanks @Michael B Yeah . . . since I got T, my Boss has been very understanding too and advises about anything which might affect me. The alarm...

Thanks @PDodge . . . sounds like you had a close call. Pleased you survived it ok. I didn't actually have much anxiety about my experience . . ....

Hey . . . I've never posted on a Forum before and I'm wondering if it's common for things you type in a post to be altered when it's actually...

Thanks for the welcome @Rajin I'm afraid I don't know exactly what my 'new norm' is yet. My T has been changing so much over the 4-5 months I've...

Thanks for that @PortalNaut . . . you're right about the 'no rhyme or reason' . . . and I'll check out the German dude. Am doing my best to try...

Hey, thanks for the welcome. I'm aware they are unrelated conditions. All I know is, I have 'regular' T . . . which is a constant sound. It can do...

I wondered the same thing at first too . . . but every time it would start pulsing, I'd put my fingers on my neck . . . and sure enough . . . it...
