I take Lansoprozole, I don’t think it affects the tinnitus.
@PAUL BARKER. Sorry you have this miserable condition, as I’m sorry anybody has. I’m similar to you, but my dizziness comes and goes still. I...
Right, firstly, I suffered a TIA from undiagnosed Afib 7 years ago. So please, do take the meds prescribed, it’s no joke having a stroke, and even...
I have had numerous MRI scans and due another soon, it’s always loud, they give you foam plugs and muffs, but the muffs are always far too big and...

Yes, I have dizzy spells and feel off balance. Sometimes the feeling is definitely vertigo.
[ATTACH] May 2019 be the year there is a breakthrough for us all here. I don’t wish for prosperity, just peace and quiet. xx
The trouble with taking your own ear protection, ear muffs is that during the MRI they need to speak to you through the speaker, and you’ll need...
There are times when I really need support for intrusive, relentless tinnitus, but this forum, particularly this thread just makes us more...
I’m on warfarin and it makes no difference, my tinnitus is loud, intrusive whatever I take but it’s not made worse by anticoagulants. Take it,...
@glynis I’m so very sorry that you’re down, and I’m in it with you, but we are strong and will bounce back. It is singularly the most dreadful...
Ive had tinnitus since 2012, its forever fluctuating and ive never habituated. However, i try not to let it get me down. It can do for sure, but...
@glynis I can’t see how to pm you. Will do it via messenger
Thanks for all the replies. I’m not sure I have attacks as such, yes, I have dizzy spells, but I’m constantly feeling nauseated and fuzzy, with as...
Good morning fellow Tinnitusites. Having had the SSHL six years ago now, caused by a TIA from a previously undiagnosed heart condition, I have...
Tinnitus has a mind and agenda of its own and can, and does, do what it wants! EXPECT THE UNEXPECTED!
@astaff14 I’m not a relationship councillor, but hey, that’s not normal behaviour. Nobody can tell you what to do, only advise, if he treats you...
Well, it’s now six years since I had Sudden Sensoneural Hearing Loss, complete and total in my right ear, caused by a TIA. Over a few weeks some...
Has she been tested for meniers?
I have almost permanent full right ear, and my eustation tubes are working. They couldn’t give me an explanation for it. No wax, no infection....
@Bill Bauer Thanks, I’ve never ever been reckless. I had a TIA! @Tinker Bell thank you for your kind words.
I do use ear plugs, not cheap foam, but titanium centre, fitted at a hearing shop, but tbh, they don’t really cut out noise much in very loud...
Titanium ear plugs.
High pitched ringing, both ears but at different pitches. Sometimes electrical humming, always unmaskable. Reactive, irritating and devastating.
I’ve had this loud intrusive and persistent tinnitus for 6 years. (Not caused by noise exposure), I have never habituated, but I’ve not stopped...
Yes I can have a drink, though I don’t drink much at all anyway, never have, but I do have a home INR test kit, so I can know my readings at any...
I take nebivolol, I’m not sure if it makes my tinnitus worse, but it certainly didn’t cause it.
Yes absolutely! Fullness in my ear is worse than the noise.
I go along with the theory of a bleed causing the tinnitus, as I had a bleed/clot on my brain stem, which has caused this catastrophic noise in my...
I believe there is no such thing as habituation. I’ve had this monster in my head for 6 years now. If it stayed static, however bad that may be,...
Hello, sorry you’re so anxious about the cough, honestly, don’t worry. If we protect our poor noisy ears against normal everyday noises we...
@Nanny chocolate I so agree. Mine is so constantly changing, one day it’s liveable with, today mine's off the T Scale and my ear is full and...
I think I’m under stress right now, and I’m blaming some eye drops I’ve been prescribed. However, I feel my tinnitus is so way off the scale...
No, I’ve not taken those, but I’m having a real nightmare after having to have steroid eye drops, etc. I think, IMO, ANYTHING can and does make...
I’ve had permanent ear fullness for years. The hearing aid helps.
Had mine 5 years now, after SSHL. It changes pitch, tune, loudness and feeling and balance every single day. No two days are the same which is...
As opposed to common belief, TOTAL silence is best for me. Any background noise will make my tinnitus unrelentingly dreadful. As someone else said...
And I thought I was imagining my tinnitus is MUCH worse while wearing, and after wearing my hearing aids. Now I know I’m not. And I’m not the only...
I’m on Omeprozole, at only 10mg daily, it’s needed as the heartburn is seriously bad without because I take warfarin which is making my stomach...
I’m my experience of reactive tinnitus, and in a word YES!
I come here just so I know I’m not suffering alone. Bad, bad day today. But never, ever suicidal. Life’s for living. As best one can in these...
Try not to overanalyse what may harm us, I think by overprotecting our battered ears and brains, we may get worse. We have to protect our ears in...
Yes, i started in the right ear, after a TIA, and now have it severely in both.
Yes, I’m having a dreadful day with it, but I’m hopeful it will drop back a bit, the headache it accompanies isn’t good either. Grrrrrr. And mine...
Yes me too, I call it brain fog. Some days much worse than others, according to how loud my tinnitus is on any given day.
Headaches, us, mine are the headaches from hades and I think linked to my tinnitus bad days. You’ll adjust, you have to keep occupied and busy.
My tinnitus fluctuates greatly. Yesterday was almost intolerable, I hoped that today it would at least reduce in volume and vibrations, and it...
And go for that MRI. You’ll find it will give you peace of mind, it won’t stop the tinnitus but you’ll be ok.
I have distorted hearing and off-the-scale reactive tinnitus too. I had to stop using my laptop because of the humming of the fan causing...
Get well soon.
Had my flu jab last week, no problems.
People love their dogs, but maybe rehoming to a loving caring home is an option?
I guess it’s all according to what caused it. I think most will not go away, ever, but we just have to accept and adapt.
I live near him, there is NO support locally. None.... we are on our own.
Relief is my dream.
That’s a VERY astute comment. I hadn’t thought about it like that. Well said.
To put up with this incessant noise, I realise that I have become a very strong woman. So it has its positives.
Feel for you, and very much in the same boat. My T spiked a few weeks ago, and sometimes they do go down to a tolerable level, mine is also...
Yes, count me in, feels like my right ear is permanently blocked, can't be cleared ever. Not jaw related but in my case, blood supply.
