Hey, sorry I haven't been here for a while. The low hum is still on/off for me, comes randomly, goes randomly. When it is on, it is absolute hell.
I would not use the drops, I even think it is more dangerous than through an intact eardrum. Through your nose, and ET, the Neomycin could reach...
Sorry for your loss, may he rest in peace.
The hum for me is on/off. Currently I don't, but it always comes back.
@dan I don't remember, so probably it was a spike on the shorter side.
Does the humming stop if you cover your affected ear with your hand?
Still a firm "no".
She doesn't have any fear seeing your severity? Not giving an F about loudness may make her end up worse.
@Forever hopeful Yes, luckily. Unfortunately, I cannot pinpoint what helped, probably mainly time, but it did take a LOT of time. And I think the...
After all this time it is still incredibly difficult to live with tinnitus. Still not sure it is worth it.
@CRGC Well, it did not kill me, but ruined my mental health, cognitive skills and will to live. So one should do everything within common sense to...
Hey, no, thankfully I don't. Sounds come and go for me besides the permanent ones.
Still not at all.
My low hum is not constant and I have had bouts with it in every season, except summer. And it is most probably not because I am relaxed then,...
Be very confident in using the earplugs in the correct way. Ask for an ear defender. You can load up on magnesium and NAC.
It depends, but the short answer is yes, loud music can make tinnitus worse. Whether it makes yours or any other person's tinnitus worse is highly...
I hate to say it, but I would also choose a different career path other than law enforcement. I agree with posters above me, if you don't want to...
Not all loud exposures lead to worsening or hearing loss. If you don't have ear fullness, spike, I would not worry about it much. You can load up...
I haven't managed to get my degree. I am in a weird limbo of active/passive semesters.
Mad respect to you for being able to be in med school with this ailment. How can you study? I cannot concentrate for the life of me.
I don't really understand the connection between the ability to wear earplugs and winter. Are you ashamed of them? If so and you can't get over...
Continues the similar pattern. Goes away, comes back. When I wrote the last update in September 2020, I did not know, that this was gonna be the...
I know it is highly individual, but trust me, there are types of low frequency tinnitus which is awfully hard to cope with. Mine is lower and more...
I am sorry you are going through all the health problems. Mine still comes and goes as it pleases. When it is on, it is hell on earth, but...
A couple of months.
I took it for 2.5 months, it did nothing. Maybe it is good for dizziness and vertigo, but for the tinnitus sounds, I highly doubt it.
That is fleeting tinnitus, it is supposedly "normal", quite commonly happens to people without chronic tinnitus/hyperacusis too. Used to happen to...
How does this vaccine differ from Sinopharm's inactivated one? In parts of Europe that has already been used with varying results, also as a...
Absolutely unpredictable what will happen to the tinnitus. If you have hearing loss in the frequencies that a HA can touch, it might help you.
@GoneAway, thank you for reaching out to the clinic via phone. Could your Korean friend check Korean social media sites, tinnitus support groups,...
No, the low hum comes and goes, it is not permanent. I still hear low frequency sounds, but they are faint, so normally they would not bother me,...
First of all, I am really sorry that you are dealing with this. Have Middle Ear Myoclonus or Palatal Myoclonus been ruled out by your doctors? To...
First time I experienced it, I did not think much of it, and it went away in approx. 2 weeks. I went to an ENT though, who just told me to not...
This is the reality of many tinnitus sufferers, why sugarcoat it? It is not people's fault that tinnitus can be brutal. However, you do not need...
I don't know. I feel that my low hum could be middle ear related or Eustachian tube related. Maybe somehow blocking my ears very frequently could...
You do not sound like a basket case. Tinnitus is extremely taxing, you don't have to have prior mental health issues to be affected by it...
That is not "continuing beating the negativity drum". That is his reality that he worsens every day from as little as whispers. To claim that he...
But Watasha actually asked about your opinion and experience, because you have a history with TRT counseling. And now we know that you briefly had...
Hello, my baseline improved after around 1,5 year, but unfortunately the reactiveness has not, but loudness hyperacusis also did get better by a...
These vaccines were developed for the original virus, since then mutations have evolved. Not surprising that the vaccines are not that effective...
If you are able to not focus on it, that's pretty amazing. For others it is not a choice, really.
But those are really not the same as hearing screaming alien noises 24/7...
I was 27 when it first started, out of the blue. It is unilateral, only in the left ear, although last year when it lasted for half a year, I got...
I actually hadn't had tinnitus before the low frequency tinnitus. Low frequency tinnitus came 3 years before. I did not have an acoustic trauma,...
Has anyone gotten closer to a diagnosis: what could be the cause of the low rumbling, vibrating tinnitus that can be stopped by certain movements,...
Do you have to be a citizen too, or just living there is enough to qualify?
I don't think everyone has it in the left ear. I do. I haven't really heard of bilateral drone though.
I am not sure you have a case here. You probably won't be able to prove causation between your elevated tinnitus and the SSRI. Also if your...
@Michael Leigh, I understood that you did not mean that it is psychological in origin, I just don't agree with you that our emotional reaction is...
Would you say the same to a chronic pain patient? Have you heard of noxacusis for example? Do you think that is mental too?
I just hate this and it seems to be typical that therapists think that we are suffering from tinnitus because we think we have "something serious"...
No, not really. I still eat garlic, still get some burning, but it is not that bad for me now and doesn't cause permanent pain or worsening.
What kind of earmuffs do you have on? They look less bulky than mines. You look really pretty with them. Totally pulling off the green earmuffs.
What do you guys eat for Christmas Eve? Our menu is Fisherman's soup, stuffed cabbage, fried fish with potato salad and "bejgli".
Happens to me all the time. If I can, I take a break from earplugs and let my ears calm down a bit.
I don't know, maybe I was just one of the lucky few, but I used earplugs a lot, even during the night and I heard silence. Aside from the...
Got my booster shot of Pfizer a couple of weeks ago. So far no effect on tinnitus.
I kept procrastinating then lockdown happened and when I could have HRCT again some family stuff happened and in August (2020) I went to a third...
Yes, I have done all the tests except for CT. Results are inconclusive. ENTs said that it could be an early otosclerosis, but hearing loss is so...
Yes, you are absolutely right, I know that and worded it wrongly. I don't rule it out, but I don't really understand how a fixed stapes would...
