Progesterone and Progestin have been linked to hearing loss. Both birth control pills and hormone replacement therapies have been studied and...

I’ve heard some doctors say the hair cells get bent/damaged but are not dead so overtime they can straighten themselves out. Not sure if that’s...

Exercise and masking help a lot. I’d sit with her and go through different sounds to see if something will soothe it for her. I really like the...

I haven’t used a doctor prescribed gel. But I have used both niacinamide and azelaic acid topically with no problems.

For starters the Tinnitus Talk Podcast where they interview different people/companies doing research can help understand more about why tinnitus...

From what I’m aware, the body disposes of the vaccine after it’s done its job. It doesn’t stay in your system.

If you can’t open your Eustachian tubes at all or it’s very hard to, I would try using Afrin spray. Don’t use it longer than 7 days though.

I had SSNHL and it was at about day 7 that my hearing kind of snapped back and my tinnitus all of a sudden went from high pitch tone to a quieter...

I mean the VA considers tinnitus a disability. And according to federal law you have disability rights. The main thing would be to have a doctor...

When I was on Metformin it didn’t seem to impact my tinnitus at all. But everyone’s body is different.

You might want to add Selenium as well.

I'm a part of a Menieres Facebook page and wanted to add that someone asked about the vaccine and tinnitus change. Of the 9 commenters who got...

I’m so sorry your husband reacted that way. It’s really hard for others who don’t deal with tinnitus at all or like we do to understand the depths...

Have you had any imaging done to check for any physical problems that could be causing it?

There would have to be a leap in technology. We don’t have it yet. But hopefully a company will be able to develop one. Also, it doesn’t have to...

I think the next/first step in hearing restoration really has to be figuring out an efficient and safe way to deliver drugs deep into the cochlea....

I had a sudden 5 dB drop and it caused tinnitus for me. So it is possible.

Whoopi Goldberg.

Intracranial hypertension doesn’t usually show up on CT or MRI. You would have to do a spinal tap to measure the pressure of cerebral spinal...

Maybe intracranial hypertension? Would explain the headache and pulsatile tinnitus. It wouldn’t show up on an MRI unless is was really severe. So...

Don’t be afraid to take more NAC if you want to as a precaution. I’ve been taking way more than 2x 600mg pills daily for a couple months now with...

You could try just the ointment for a few days to see if it starts to go away with just that. And you could ask for another antibiotic. Even if...

It could be the withdrawal that has caused a spike in tinnitus and will go away.

Sometimes I’ll have a gray streak go across my vision and I get headaches that feel like pressure.

I have high pitch pulsatile tinnitus and also low pitch. I actually have 1-4 pulsatile sounds at a time depending on the day. All in sync with my...

Hi! I’m so sorry you’re having to deal with this. I would definitely recommend seeing a neurologist and getting an MRI done to see if something is...

Mine is very similar. Medium/high pitch and sounds like a normal tinnitus type sound but is in sync with my heartbeat. Sometimes it’s in one ear...

Agree. I’d be much more likely to donate to them if they answered the questions we have.

I had a spike last 4 months before going down so try not to worry. Give your ears as much of a break from loud sound as possible and cut out...

Mine can be high pitch or low pitch droning kind of sound in sync with my heartbeat. Sometimes it’s there, other times it’s not.

You should try a diuretic to see if that would help since it could be cochlear hydrops.

It can get very loud. But also can go back down. Unless you had new acoustic trauma of some sort this may well be a spike and go back down over...

I’m so sorry for your the loss of your sweet and courageous wife Sylvia. Praying for you and your family right now.

Go to ER and explain your concern with more hearing loss due to the exposure and ask for a tapering dose of Prednisone. Also talk about knowing...

Just to make it more potent. So that it works stronger / quicker / lasts longer in the cochlea to reach more frequencies.

Question: Won’t FX-322 need to be reformulated or multiple doses proven to work to reach frequencies shown on an audiogram to really help tinnitus...

Try using musicians earplugs to help take down the noise but not completely cut it off.

It’s possible but there is no way to tell. Hopefully it will get quieter for you and go away.

Maybe a neck or TMJ issue? Or do you have high blood pressure? That could contribute to it as well.

I have anxious moments as well and still suffer with bad anxiety some times. It really depends how your anxiety attacks manifest themselves as to...

Do you have low frequency hearing loss?

It was pretty constant. I had small bits of time where the tinnitus lowered but then it would go back up again. It finally settled down without...

I’d get a hearing test done as well as ask for prednisone to see if it will help make the tinnitus lessen or go away due to inflammation. If they...

The only treatments I’m aware of are steroids and a diuretic + lowering salt and sugar intake. If that takes down the fluid build up in the inner...

Not sure but I’ve taken 2x 600mg and have been fine.

I am dealing with new tinnitus and sound distortions as well. 4 months in and have a 1 month old. I understand the struggle ❤️. Just try and...

Praying now! Hope you get to feeling better!

I’ve had my distortions for 4 months now. They haven’t gone away. Some days it’s easier to hear them and other days it’s harder. If the sound is...

Yeah, I had normal tinnitus before this happened and wish I could go back to that. I’ve had mine for almost 4 months. Hopefully it goes away for...

QUOTE="Koz, post: 553967, member: 2621"]I'm sure this has been asked before but FX-322 is strictly for damaged cochlear hair cells, right? If the...

I would try not taking it and seeing how that goes. Also get a hearing test to see if you’ve lost any hearing. You’re girlfriend should be...

So far no. But it does fluctuate. Sometimes it takes more/louder sound to cause it and sometimes less. I have no idea why.

If that’s the case you probably just need a referral period. Not specifically from audiology. You could ask for one from your GP or go into an...

What country are you located in? Just asking because in the US anyway you don’t need to have a referral to see an ENT.

I’d go to an ENT and get your hearing and ears checked. It would be unusual for caffeine to have caused it.

Yes. My right ear had a sudden hearing loss about 4 months ago and since then when I hear higher frequencies, especially loud ones, I get another...

Can you describe your resonance peaks?

Don’t mind looking odd wearing hearing protection. I promise people don’t care as much as you think they do. Plus if it means you’re able to go...

It does sound very much like PET. With being able to not hear the high note amplified it might be to how sound resonates in our mouths when we...
