    Tinnitus from Toxic Mold Exposure

    As an update...I have more details now about this situation. For several years I lived in that "mold house". I have gone to see every doctor possible concerning my condition. Here's what I have: Virtually every aspect of my health is in reasonable shape. I don't have cancer, diabetes, heart...

    Antidepressants (SSRIs, SNRIs, MAOs, TCAs, TeCAs)

    Not sure where to post so I'll post here. I got tinnitus from mold. While taking Gabapentin, it had been a pretty consistent single noise for quite a while. For the pain, I was prescribed Cymbalta and they changed Gabapentin to Lyrica. Since taking Cymbalta, the tinnitus now varies - to as...

    Tinnitus Week 2020: Help JimH Fly Us to Vancouver

    Donated. I hope that someone can get the research into this moved along a lot more than where things are right now. The symphony in my ears really needs to be reduced... And so far, regular doctors are of no help at all right now.

    Lenire — Bimodal Stimulation Treatment by Neuromod

    I know that Lenire is the first to market and all of that... but what are the chances of an alternative device that works similar to Lenire coming to market sooner? Just like "Coke" and "Pepsi"?

    Lenire — Bimodal Stimulation Treatment by Neuromod

    Any ideas if Lenire will come to the US? This looks like it may help at least until something like FX-322 or whatever hits the market.

    How to Navigate This Ringing World?

    I think we're confusing "treatment" with "cure". There are no official cures for tinnitus. However, there have been some people that cured their tinnitus through various means. For example, several people have done stem cell therapy and reported that their tinnitus ended with that. So...I go...

    How to Navigate This Ringing World?

    I'm referring to the sub forums located on this very website "Treatments" and "Alternative Treatments" ... While they may not be official treatments they are there. Also there are some official treatments under development, it seems.

    How to Navigate This Ringing World?

    There doesn't seem to be a checklist or anything like that to run down. I definitely don't want to be like that guy that convinced the surgeon to chop his auditory nerves and ended up with 130db ringing. With 100+ different treatments that people have tried, it's hard to get a handle on this...

    Poll: Do You Mask Your Tinnitus When You Sleep?

    I have noticed that when I am waking up, the tinnitus is very, very faint. If I can just keep the pain away, I would be able to sleep even with the tinnitus. As I gain consciousness, the tinnitus starts to all come back. I wish that I could just hit that switch during the day.

    Tinnitus from Fluid Being Trapped in Eustachian Tube?

    Yes it is very frustrating. Try PatulEND to kill any bacteria up in there. After Nose Sprays you will need to drain any fluid out of there. Try working the jaws (like airplane / air pressure style) to make sure all the fluids are down. Try an infrared sauna to dry it out more. Salt water in...

    Fullness in Ear After Acoustic Trauma

    Two possible methods to use to flush crap out of the inside of the ears: 1. PatulEND - basically vitamin c nose drops. Drip it in to get into the Eustachian tube to clear it out. This has an added benefit of killing any bacteria. 2. Sinus Rinses. (NeilMed or others). That will invariably get...

    How to Navigate This Ringing World?

    I wear hearing aids already. Doesn't do crap. Already did Ketamine Infusion. I have zilch for anxiety now. Possibly less pain. TRT seems kinda hokey but I'm willing to try. How do I find an Audiologist in Dallas that may be covered by my insurance that does Tinnitus? It seems like a huge...

    How to Navigate This Ringing World?

    I've had tinnitus for a while but I was majorly focused on the pains from the mold exposure. That pain seems to be coming under some control or reducing greatly now. My next focus is to try to fix this 24/7, 4 frequency set of ringing in my ears. I've seen two different ENT doctors, both who...

    My ENT Offered Me a Spot in a Drug Trial for Ketamine Injections

    The hertz measurement is lowered. I'll try to do an actual measurement of it later. I am going in for my fifth round today. Considering that Ketamine is like ice for the nerves, it makes some sense. If the effect is temporary, I'll report back in a month or so. I wasn't going for Ketamine for...

    My ENT Offered Me a Spot in a Drug Trial for Ketamine Injections

    I've had 4 rounds of Ketamine therapy for the Chronic Regional Pain Syndrome that I have. The pain is reduced by about 75% after those treatments. I go in for one more tomorrow. The tinnitus remains but at a lower volume and lower frequency than before.

    Tinnitus from Toxic Mold Exposure

    The problem with mold is no one wants to believe that it can harm people. Not the doctors. Not the lawyers. No one. But there are millions of people living with damage from mycotoxins. I am one of them and I am damn tired of people just automatically going "oh no, it has to be something else"...

    Tinnitus from Toxic Mold Exposure

    I know people like you are usually just beyond skeptical and don't believe when people say mold. On the other hand, if I were to say "BLEACH" you'd be nodding your head in agreement. Besides which -- I had the house tested for mold (it was there) and mold got into my body and caused all kinds...

    Tinnitus from Toxic Mold Exposure

    I was in a mold house for more than two years and I have a number of other symptoms. When I used PatulEND to clear out the junk from my ears, mold basically came out.

    Recent Tinnitus Increase, Feeling Really Hopeless

    Amitriptyline — Doctor Recommends It Because They Think Tinnitus Is a Form of Neuropathic Pain

    I took Amitriptyline along with Gabapentin for two days. I had to stop the Amitriptyline because it rang my nervous system like a bell. I took a bath and moving my hand and arm from hot to cold caused it to vibrate / ring all the way up and down the arms. My hands got cold and it felt like it...

    Hydrocodone — Safe to Take Every Now and Then or Is It Ototoxic?

    For my chronic pain, I took this for two days - Hydrocodone 10/325 once every six hours. It completely destroyed my stomach. My wife reported hearing gurgling sounds but I didn't think much about it until a couple of days later. My heart ended up pounding as well so I discontinued that and the...

    My Trip to Bangkok: Stem Cell Treatment [Comments]

    I stumbled across this thread while looking for something else... Stem Cell Treatments are now around $5,000 at several places near me. For pain relief, I'm considering Ketamine but I understand that Stem Cells can do pain relief as well. And it may correct my Tinnitus as a bonus. Mine was...

    Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy

    I just completed 10 sessions of HBOT at 1.75 atmospheres over the time period of about 18 days. I couldn't do 10 consecutive days due to weather (lightning) and other factors. Here is what I have noticed: 1. The frequency of the tinnitus has decreased quite dramatically. Now, at night it is...

    Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy

    Relating to mold, I had to do HBOT. About two weeks ago, I measured it. It was at 320 Hz. I've done 4 hours of HBOT. It's down to 280 Hz today. Not sure if it is related or whatever. The frequency is lower. The intensity is the same.

    Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy

    There really are two different tinnitus. I have a mild tinnitus that would come and go maximum one hour and was high frequency. I call that regular tinnitus. This constant tinnitus came after my Toxic Mold Exposure where I also got Neuropathy. This is not fun stuff. One thing that I had along...

    Gabapentin (Neurontin)

    Since March 2019 I've been dealing with neuropathy and tinnitus and a whole host of symptoms. I finally got Gabapentin around August 20. It helps with the pain. It does nothing for my low frequency tinnitus. There are three frequencies to the tinnitus - one around 300 Hz, another one lower than...
