Separate names with a comma.
And people DO get silence. But it's not overnight, or guaranteed. Look, I don't disagree his communication needs work. His marketing needs work....
So, I promised I'd check in. Here we go. First of all: Liam's not a scammer. He's an honest dude that does his absolute best to help people. Is...
I'm as skeptical as the next guy, but some of the people in this thread need to take a long, hard look in the mirror. The amount of vitriol in...
Over 9 weeks in. Finished my beshistine treatment, still on the nasal spray. I've been seeing a chiropractor and a physical therapist, which my...
OK, so much to unpack in that post. :) So, let's get the bad news out of the way: if this wasn't an incident, but a consistent noise exposure,...
Hey @Midas I've always been careful with my ears. This was a freak incident for me. And while I believe you're right, many people use power tools...
Been wearing today, road trip with the kids, restaurant etc. They do make things easier to manage from a sound sensitivity perspective. It's all...
Done with the prednisolon. That at least made the overall T better, if of course that was the real reason it got less. I don't think I can hear...
So maybe a silly question, but do you actually listen to music through these or just use them for the ANC? My ENT recommended against all...
Thanks for coming back and posting. :)
I think they're very clear in not actually claiming this works for tinnitus. Just that it has been the experience, and it's kind of a bi-product....
Alright, 5 weeks in, and halfway through my prednison treatment. At this point, obviously, it's hard to pinpoint any specifics as to what's...
Good Lord my T is all over the place. Almost silent all week late at night and morning. More active during the day. And then suddenly, still...
That sucks man. American? The one thing that made me really happy to move back to the Netherlands after living in the US: how f*cked you are in...
I struggle to see the connection between your tinnitus and your divorce, though. Are you saying your wife left because you were suffering and...
If it's not actual damage to your hearing, these should be issues you could tackle yourself. Why hasn't the stress been reduced?
Oh and, to add to that, my ENT totally agreed that avoiding headphones is a good idea with tinnitus, but really they should be avoided in general.
Alright, for those of you following along, second ENT visit today (we're just over 4 weeks in now, total). First of all, to any Dutch readers,...
I think the site is a general one, but I'll check. In any case, it doesn't really matter in terms of treatment.
Except, it hasn't worked yet. :(
Thanks, I will do that. My current ENT, from Van Linschoten, prescribed me dexamethasone tablets, which he says are related to Prednison. He was...
@Christiaan Pento clinic just informed me they have a 6-9 month waiting list.
Thanks for posting, encouraging to hear.
Very very interesting. I was on Dexamethasone and Betahistine for 10 days, had to take one in the morning and one in the evening - with food, so...
Interesting. My ENT actually prescribed betahistine which is a pretty powerful antihistamine. Hasn't made it worse, also hasn't made it better.
Well, my tinnitus started after using a hammer drill without protection. It's fairly safe to conclude some damage WAS done, it just don't show up...
Appreciate this post. My T is shoving my face into my everlasting perfectionism. Habituation seems like second best to someone who can usually get...
Thanks for posting this. It's so good to see people drop in and share their successes!
But what would be the point? To prove that you do, indeed, have hearing damage?
Even noise related?
Despite the earlier suggestion I don't seem to be able to find such a thing here locally in the Netherlands. Not even the site @Christiaan...
Had a much better today and it only got worse as I got tired. I'm still exasperated how something so nasty can happen so quickly.
All I can say, as a fellow forum reader, is that I've seen a bunch of posts already of people saying it did clear up over time. Keep in mind that,...
Alright, time for an update. Saw the ENT last week. Very emphatic and helpful guy, seemed pretty on his game. I shoved my full list of treatments...
Thanks for posting. Your case sounds almost exactly like mine, except I had a few minutes with a hammer drill and an 35. I'm now almost 4 weeks...
Dag Jan, ik woon ook in Utrecht en heb last van T door een sessie met een boorhamer. Het is pas 2,5 week oud en ik vraag me dus af of HBOT zou...
I'll suggest it to the doctor today. Was cleaning up some of the laminate floor parts this morning that I still had lying around. Snapped one...
It was not an extended one. Where did you get that one done?
Got a hearing test today, no discernible damage. My left ear is slightly better than my right, but they told me that didn't mean anything as all...
In the arm, 3 shots in 3 days.
@linearb I'm glad you've taken the time to dive into some of the literature. I sometimes feel like we are all grasping for straws. As I've...
@Shelbylynn how are you doing now?
Would also love to hear what people think. Still in the early stages myself.
I'm only two weeks in with tinnitus and hadn't read anything about not consuming alcohol. For sure, two beers in things got a lot quieter - but I...
@Bob den Hartog fellow Dutchman! I'll shoot you a FB message. :) I'm two weeks in and have immediately purchased Gingkba, magnesium, multivits...
Mine happened the weekend I was moving after my divorce. I was so looking forward to complete and utter silence in my home, but that hasn't...
What about the movie theater? Man I'd hate to not be able to go see movies anymore. Where's the science or what's the reasoning behind "your ears...
Oh oh Den Haag! :D So, you're saying normal earplugs aren't enough for loud places? Any recommendations? And do you think I'm too late with the...
Sounds we are close in symptoms, though not causes. I've also got moments of desperation, where I'm so angry that something so invasive can happen...
Man, I totally feel that anger you feel at yourself. I just picked up a power drill for less than 10 minutes and voila, here's your screwed up...
Hi everyone, I just found out about this place. Sure glad I did. To introduce myself: I'm a recently divorced, 35-year old father of 3 beautiful...
You're not a voice, you're just a ringing in my ear...
