My parents both have tinnitus. Neither experienced a spike after dose 1, 2, or their booster doses. They got Moderna for all 3 doses.

Had my tinnitus followed a vaccine rather than a loud night out at a salsa club, you can bet your ass I'd have found a way to report it. I get...

12,000 reports of tinnitus out of 430,000,000 doses is more like .002%. Even if there are 100× more tinnitus events than reported you're still...

Just an update for those that may be waiting for the Novavax vaccine. They've submitted for emergency use approval to the WHO, which means...

I have no idea what any of this nonsense means.

I want my 3rd shot, but I still can't even convince myself to go get the 2nd one lol. For what it's worth, my parents have gone rogue and gotten...

Novavax COVID-19 vaccine is a protein subunit vaccine which is a completely different technology than the existing vaccines. It's tech that's been...

Maybe you could go get the newest antibody test so you'll know for sure whether or not you need the second dose? Apparently this test can...

I think they'll get their manufacturing worked out relatively quickly. The CEO of Novavax said they're still planning to submit for EUA sometime...

I do actually. I had to scroll back through my Google photos and find it lol. At cruise the dB level was fluctuating between 66-70 dB. I didn't...

During engine start and takeoff, the noise level behind the engines is a good bit louder (10 dB, give or take). At cruise, the difference is...

I'm curious if there is anyone else here holding out for the Novavax COVID-19 vaccine? From what I've read, it seems to be far less likely to...

Air France took their first A350-900 delivery in 2019, so if you did the YYZ-CDG flight on Air France you'd be on a practically brand new plane. I...

There are plenty of studies published in reputable journals on the high rate of prevalence of long COVID-19. You can find them on your own...

No problem at all! Happy to help. I'll definitely come back and post anytime I fly these next few months. With regards to British Airways, London...

Lufthansa, Cathay Pacific and Qatar Airways A350s are all super quiet and cruise around 65-68 dB in the front of the plane. I think the A350s,...

I credit card churn and pay with points if I'm paying for myself, and if my company pays they always fly me Business so I'm rested and ready to...

Honestly, I was disappointed with how loud the A380 was when I flew it pre-COVID-19 (80ish dB at cruise, row 1 on the upper deck). The 787-9 and...

Just got off my flight and have some measurements for you. From seat 1A, engine start hit 75-78 dB. Takeoff peaked at 88 dB (for less than 1...

Mild cases of COVID-19 can cause long term issues, including new or worsened tinnitus, so I'm not all that comforted by delta having a low death...

So what's the alternative with regards to COVID-19? With the Delta variant spreading rapidly in most countries, unless one is able to lock...

Yeah, I'll be in the very front row in Business Class. I'm assuming it'll be a bit quieter up there but I'll definitely get measurements from...

No problem at all my friend! I'm happy to help out. I will be seated in 1A and will get readings from there for engine start (this tends to...

I'm flying the a321 NEO next week actually. I will take my dB meter and report back.

I've flown the a321 as recently as last month. In seat 1A, at cruise, my decibel meter read 74-78 dB. Takeoff was around 85 dB for a minute or two...

I was in Seoul from September 2020 until December of 2020. They're doing far more than just masking. Quarantine for all arrivals, contact tracing...

You're not going to get it because I reported that my spike subsided completely?

COVID-19 has been proven to worsen tinnitus, so either way you're taking a risk.

I'm wondering if that could just be a coincidence. Having tinnitus start for no real reason happened pre-COVID-19, so of course it still happens...

Did you get a spike after the first and second dose or just the second?

If we don't get the second dose, we still risk a spike from a COVID-19 infection. It sucks. We have no good options here.

From what I've seen it appears to be a bit of a mixed bag. I've seen a few people that didn't spike at all from dose 2. A few that had temp spikes...

Yeah, I just wish my brain would cooperate long enough to get the needle in my arm. If one has a spike from the first dose, would it not make...

Is there anyone here that spiked from the first dose and decided to go ahead with the second anyway? I had a moderate spike after my first...

You're so kind, thank you! I actually ended up backing out. I just couldn't get myself to go through with it. I've convinced myself that since I...

This is what's driving me to get my second dose. I could probably put it off, but I'm going to have to do it eventually, so may as well get it...

Well, it looks like I'm going for my second dose tomorrow, much to my chagrin. I really, really don't want to do it since my first jab left me...

That is awful. I'm so sorry to hear that. I sincerely hope you make some improvements over the next few months!

It seems like a permanent increase is significantly more likely from COVID-19 infection than from the vaccine, so probably worth the risk getting...

From the studies I've seen, it appears tinnitus is exacerbated in roughly 6% of COVID-19 infected individuals vs. 0.50% of vaccinated individuals....

I'm so terribly sorry to hear you're having such a rough go mate. I've read it could take 3 to 6 months for post COVID-19 vaccine spikes to...

What about the risk of COVID-19 infection worsening tinnitus? I've had one dose of Moderna and got a temporary spike from it, and I'm really on...

Hey Michael. I just wanted to ask you, if you had received a bad spike from the first dose, would you have followed through with the second dose?...

Yes, it did. Three weeks after the jab my tinnitus had reverted to baseline. I'm not sure it ever really spiked if I'm being honest. I was just...

I've been wondering, if you took a group of 100 random tinnitus sufferers that have not received the COVID-19 vaccine and polled them throughout...

Hey there! I decided not to get the second dose. I'm currently in Thailand where COVID-19 is extremely, extremely rare. So I figured it wasn't...

Update on the above: I got a worse tinnitus spike a few days after the initial tinnitus spike had returned to baseline. That spike is still...

Can one of you more scientifically inclined people help me out with something? There's an ingredient in the Moderna COVID-19 Vaccine called...

I had been doing well these past few years. My tinnitus was very mild and seemed to be stable no matter what I did. I took meds, took a bunch of...

Just an update... My spike has subsided and my tinnitus is back to baseline. I'm convinced the spike was due to the drive and/or wax.

I got my first Moderna injection on Monday night. I had a mild tinnitus spike start a few hours after the injection, but I figure that's due to...

Hey Bill! I've been told by my doctor I need to supplement with vitamin D for a bit, as my levels are a bit low. I'm curious, did you find that it...

Well, it's pretty well accepted that covid can attack just about any and every organ system in the body. Take a look at this research published by...

I'm telling you to use reports from people that suffer from tinnitus as your source. In this particular instance, those people just so happen to...

Join the tinnitus groups on facebook. They're flooded with people claiming covid made their tinnitus worse. And just for the record, I've never...

The person that passed away from it was my Aunts mother, and she was in otherwise excellent health. So yeah, I do know that she didnt have any...

I agree, the article kinda sucks but the sources they used seemed pretty legit. Did you happen to take a look at the study they cited from the...
