Trafalgar d, has your reactive tinnitus gotten any better?

Yes, comes and goes. Doing it tonight. No rhyme or reason.

Hi @Jaysterk. I also had balloon dilation for Eustachian Tube Dysfunction. The ENT had not put together and never did that my symptoms were due to TTTS. Surgery was a waste. ENTs do not have a clue. I have tinnitus that reacts (gets louder) to constant sounds like fans, microwave, cars rain...

Hi @steph33. I had Propofol for colonoscopy last month. My tinnitus and hyperacusis are all over the place. I cannot say that it caused me any more trouble than I already have. My tinnitus started around June 2019. I believe my tinnitus and hyperacusis are the result of many years of stress. I...

Look up TTTS. I have it and tinnitus and hyperacusis. I even had tubes put in my ears last year because the ear fullness was so bad.

Hi @Chinmoku or anyone else, have you done any microdosing?

Hi, I have a large dog with a loud bark. I have trained him to not bark at every little thing like some dogs do. I got him before hyperacusis and tinnitus and so I had barking mostly under control when hyperacusis and tinnitus came on. Get a bark collar and teach your dog not to bark. Good luck.

@Coffeebean where are you?

My tinnitus started with a slight sssss in my right ear last June 2019. Nothing in left ear. REALLY not that bad. I suffer from generalized anxiety disorder and depression. I became obsessed!! I could not let it go, like all things that get my attention. Then constant ear fullness, having to...

The book Tinnitus Retraining Therapy - A Neurophysiological Model severely warns against Alprazolam. It does indicate it helps in the short term. But warns against its use and benzodiazepines in general.

Hi @James Foley, I get a weird hum, hum, hum that comes and goes. Mostly the worst late in the day after I have all the sound i can handle (I have hyperacusis and tinnitus). When mine is active if I close my eyes it goes away momentarily. If I get as relaxed as I can, not easy to do, and I...

I have hyperacusis and tinnitus. Sometimes my voice sounds staticky to me. Ears usually feel full at the same time. If I equalize the pressure in my ears with the valsalva maneuver or clear my throat the staticky sound goes away. I also have lots of ear fullness. When this is real bad I have to...

@Willie Discus I’m sorry you are going through this. See an Audiologist and ENT and consider sound therapy.

Hi, My whole story is posted in my introduction thread. I experience these things and somehow they are caused by hyperacusis: -Ear fullness and distorted hearing that gets better if I equalize the pressure in my sinuses by doing the valsalva maneuver. Comes right back though. Sometimes my...

Hi @Yuuls I have days that my tinnitus goes nearly quiet and the hyperacusis fullness, ear tingling and sound sensitivity get worse. I get super anxious when this happens, like my whole body feels a change taking place. I feel sympathy for people who have these hearing issues. Darryl

Thanks @Candy

I'm lonely and scared.... I wish my introduction was different. Hyperacusis or “Decreased sound tolerance” for me. Dishes and silverware clanking, the tools in my took boxes, plastic wrappers, dog food bag crumpling, paper crumpling, keys jingling, voices of people who talk loud especially...

I feel a lot of compassion for others who suffer with this affliction. Somehow when the tinnitus isn’t as bad I can laugh at it, but when it is bad I sob at times, like this evening. I feel very isolated. My dog Winston is most of my emotional support.

hi @Orions Pain I see a therapist once a week. My coworker is very supportive. My parents are deceased and my one brother lives 1,500 miles away. My best friend is very sympathetic. I don’t reach out in crisis or much at all because I am so miserable and don’t have anything good to say I...

@another sean I was reading an old post of yours where you said your hyperacusis was on its way out and you contributed it to diet. How is your hyperacusis?

I got the tubes early October 2019. Pressure was so bad b4 I got them I was doing the valsalva Maneuver constantly to get rid of pressure. The tubes themselves have not bothered me, so far. I absolutely love dead silence and it has been so hard loosing it. This issue is so mysterious. Hang in...

Hi Solose, I’m sorry things are not yet what you hoped for. My sound sensitivity is pretty extreme two days after the surgery. I cannot breath through my nose at all very swollen. I am staying hopeful that when the swelling goes down my Eustachian tubes will function properly and the sensitivity...

Hi Solose My Eustachian tubes are blocked. I have tubes and I am having Eustachian tube dilation this Friday. Must have septoplasty and turbinate reduction because Eustachian tube is not accessible. My tinnitus is hell at times and is brought on by high frequency sounds like fans, water...
