Argh! Antidepressants can be so helpful especially since most of them are also antihistamines but they make my dry eye worse!
I don't give out this personal poem often, but I might as well stop holding onto it as I have for years. Maybe it'll help someone. Or, if I'm gone...
How many times have I posted to this thread in the last 10 years? Another bout of hearing loss and more tinnitus despite protection. It just...
Getting more used to my hearing aids. I need to start learning ASL but the anxiety over this whole thing is so paralyzing.
Eh, there's a lot of people who don't get to enjoy their short time here, as dismal as it sounds. We like to ask "Why me?" when really the...
Progressive hearing loss is a thief. It feels like I need to become a new person to accept that one day I will be deaf.
You sound like me. :huganimation: All the evidence from birth till now has proven that I really wasn't SUPPOSED to be here. I was never actually...
I think when we are in pain, or suffering, we all sometimes become a bit of a pain in the arse. That's why it is so important for human beings to...
Yeah. I feel like my other symptoms just make dealing with severe tinnitus worse. Funnily enough, I did some researching a while back and found...
Yes, but also no. AI/AGI will only have as much intelligence as humans do to start out with. And even the smartest of us as humans have limited...
9 years of just worsening T and hearing loss. Why was I born? Why am I here?
First off, what does neurodivergent mean? A “neurodivergent” person refers to a person on the autism spectrum or, more generally, to someone whose...
I feel you on the neurodivergent bit. I recently got a new therapist and it was just the first appointment but when I detailed my struggles with...
You and me both <3 When it comes to tinnitus, I feel like you and I are two peas in a pod, so to speak. I'm sorry that your condition has...
I have had a lot of sleep paralysis in the last couple of years. Luckily I had heard of it before they started happening and when I feel it...
Usually I only get the feedback during audiology tests because they give pure tones for the most part. I can't tell you what tones those are but...
I had that experience with my audiology test and my audiologist said it is likely feedback from damaged hair cells. The sound hits them and...
I remember you too :) How many tones do you have now? If I concentrate (some of my sounds morph together with others because of how close in pitch...
Through all this pain, one thing is interesting to me. I was going over some of the articles that Elouise Koops (who was a benefactor of the...
I wish I could have your mindset Glynis. :( You've always seemed to handle tinnitus far better than I ever did.
Hello again. It's been 8 long years. I am now considered severely and profoundly deaf and I wear hearing aids. I can still hear speech level so at...
Hey you, I remember you too. I'm sorry you were still suffering. I feel bad now that I was enjoying two years while you were stuck here by...
Wish I had a clear answer Brian. All tests normal save for audiograms. Fixing to go in for another one soon to see what the damage is now but it's...
Hey guys. Some of you might remember me, some of you will not. But I'm back. Back again in the depths of despair. Worsening hearing loss and...
Tinnitus still screeching and screaming away. The fact that I can sleep at night after all these years is still nothing short of a miracle.
Oof. Lost more hearing again. Guess dead silence during a power outage makes ears work harder :(
Having tinnitus in the silence and darkness of a power outage is not fun at all.
I have also read and agree with what Greg has said regarding MRIs and MRAs. In my experience and others' experience, CTs are a bit quieter and...
I have habituated again to a point where I can now watch videos on YouTube on good ear days. Any recommendations for hilarious videos to get me...
Gotta Area 51 it. They can't stop all of us ;) :LOL:
In the United States, probably in the thousands of dollars or even hundreds of thousands because I assume that a lot of insurance companies will...
In relation to that, this article is interesting, sobering, and informative on the inferiority of using mice models.
Having a huge hunch right now that brain inflammation is the difference between hearing loss with tinnitus and without tinnitus.
me: Logs onto Tinnitus Talk to catch up on what I've missed me: Sees annV actually say "Suck it" me: "...Am I somehow in an alternate...
Let me know how it turns out. I have the results of my brief stint with turmeric and I'm gearing up to give it another go (I am poor and ran out...
Yeah. I've had multiple blood tests done for other various reasons and all my vitamin levels checked out as normal.
Brain inflammation might make sense for me alongside the hearing loss because ever since getting hearing loss/ tinnitus, inflammation symptoms in...
if anyone's been wondering what i've been, i've just been taking a mental break away from here. gotta survive somehow.
Done :)
The write up for my turmeric/curcumin self test.
Trying to write but my sinuses/allergies seem hellbent on forcing me to take antihistamines which make me sleepy
Another ear infection. Super.
I have chronic DIAGNOSED ETD. I know when my ears are filled with fluid. It's especially bad when now that it's allergy season.
ETD sucks so much. Two straight days of tinnitus so loud because of the fluid in my ears...

I take 4-5mg of prednisone on days my ETD acts up and causes fluid buildup in my ears (which makes these horrible squeaks and shrieks sound off in...
The official word was Sudden Adult Death Syndrome (SADS). :(
Mmmm still not something about yourself, though that is a positive. I'll take it. :) (I was hoping for a meme or two out of you since you like...
You didn't follow the rules! You have to post one "good" thing along with it! ;)
None only worsening. However, you failed to post what you've learned ;) Gotta follow the rules!
What I've learned: I let my emotions control me more often than not. I am not good at saying no or speaking up for what I want in real life...
Since getting tinnitus, no matter your severity, what have you learned about yourself? Rules: You can post as many things you've learned as...
That and the state of healthcare systems across the globe. I am no expert on healthcare in other countries besides my own but I can tell you that...
That could still be in Frequency Therapeutics's favor. From what I understand, they are being REALLY CAREFUL not only with their trials but also...
I literally just spat out my drink! Holy crap!
You can also make a comment or two in the comment section below the article itself on the STAT site....
In the meantime, I'm calling them out on Twitter. My account there is a personal one and isn't affiliated with Tinnitus Talk so this forum won't...
I've had ETD for about 5 years now with no known causes (did allergy meds and everything). It showed up after a really bad cold (before I got...
Hanging in there as usual.
