48+ hours of the calmest, quietest, least reactive T since November 2020. This is at about 3.5 years.
@AverageJoe12 I needed to ask my parents to turn the TV down. Everything was startling. This all subsided over the first year.
@AverageJoe12 funny thing with H was I was pretty sure I didn't have it, but looking back I don't see how I could have *not* thought so. I was...
@Juliane I was 4 months in before having ANY noticeablely positive changes. The earliest improvements were when the tones started changing into...
A lot better, thanks. Minimal reactivity, and it's kind of the aural equivalent of glowing coals after a fire has mostly died down. The flareups...
Three year report: I don't feel like writing much, but I'm doing well. There has been real progress in the third year, just as in the second year....
Three years and much better. I'll write an official three year update post in a couple weeks.
Seek out stories from people who had acoustic trauma and took a few years to recover. Those helped me tremendously. In the worst period I just...
Three year report coming up. Should be a pretty good one.
This is one of the best accounts I've read on here recently, thank you. I'll be hitting three years in a few months, and improvements have been...
This just a couple of weeks after my two year post and I just want to point out that part of my baseline tinnitus sound, the "fuzz on top", has...
Two years: well, right at this moment I'm doing pretty well, but I still wouldn't call it "out of the woods." I get flare-ups when I'm tired...
If it stays roughly where it's been the past few days, I might consider declaring myself "out of the woods." Very cautiously optimistic.
99% sure there will be no new info. It doesn't happen at these events. When they have something to announce, they make their own announcements....
I was going to wait until the two year mark (November) but since you asked, I seem to be slowly getting better all the time on average. It still...
So hard to find any correlations to explain what makes it get better and worse; after all this time, though, being well hydrated seems to have...
Hi, it's the 18 month (1.5 year) mark. Nothing earth-shattering to report; mostly doing OK. I think I'm going to go for a longer stretch before...
...Seventeen months? I guess? I worry a bit about plateauing and not quite achieving the elusive "non-issue" level. It's OK most of the time, but...
Late spring/early summer is when I had gotten back into making lots of jokes at work, settled into a normal sleep pattern, and was eating...
15 months (short update) - long stretches of tinnitus being more "in the background", with irritating and annoying flare-ups that don't last...
14 months, a pretty good update. I've had some stretches of several days where the tinnitus sounds are weak and thin. I've noticed something about...
True, but there is no context given for the words in these tests.
A little early to post my 14 month update, but at this point it seems like it's going to be a good one.
To be fair, though, they might have had to crank the volume for him on the tests. I wasn't aware for some time that they actually don't have a...
If there are no trees falling in the woods, but someone hears them falling anyway, is there a sound?
At 13 months I am noticing extended periods of time when I completely forget I have any tinnitus... maybe not hours, but something like 20 to 40...
A hum in a mixer/sound system can be caused by many things, but if it's caused by a faulty microphone cable, and you replace the cable, the hum...
I know you've been up and down a lot, but would you say your ups and downs are the same, better, or worse overall than early in the year?
In the absence of science, pseudoscience will rush in to fill the void.
One year. I was finding it annoying and screechy a few days ago, but for the past 72 hours it has been pretty mild and thin. So I guess three full...
If a cow could master circular breathing and "moo" without stopping... that's one of my sounds.
Probably because self-reporting is so unreliable. All those things do need to be looked into, but they'd be counting on everyone to describe their...
Hang in there!
Please show me an example of someone here being "jumped on" for being "too negative."
Eleven months, not much different than at 10 months. Have had a few exceptionally good periods lasting maybe a day and a half here and there, but...
An "ear [...] specialist" who can only diagnose the canal & drum is like an "auto mechanic" who can only change wiper blades.
Does anybody know when the next FX-322 results will be out? Thanks. [ATTACH]
I tolerate music when I'm around it, but don't yet trust my ears enough to listen to music I like of my own volition. Maybe in a few months.
One of my best shifts since this began. I have to keep reminding myself the T is there.
Once again, it's about the other people on the forum, even in response to me trying to point out that you're obsessed with the other people on the...
You need to stop making every post about other people here who have disagreed with you. This obsession is unhealthy.
@Steph1710 you are so English!
@Christiaan - all of the symptoms have been constantly fluctuating since the beginning in November, and even through the worst of it in February....
Went to bed early, woke at 10 PM and experienced TRANQUILITY in a way I haven't since pre-pandemic. I am healing. For real.
Ten months, same general trend. By now it sounds like more of a thin sizzling than a hiss. It often drops to inaudible for a bit when I putter...
Projection ain't just a method of displaying images on a screen.
I don't know if there's a special term for this, but there are cause-effect relationships involving distinct events, which is what you are...
How are his clinical trials going?
I'm going to guess no. They don't seem to do "reveals" like that at conferences; it will probably largely be a rehash of things we already know,...
Well, Christiaan, I hesitate to ever say anything is *gone*, but even if something goes away for a bit and comes back again, it can go away again,...
Similarly on my way out of work I walked by some coolers and thought, "hey, those coolers just sound like... coolers!"
I moved into this space while at the height of my T and distortions (yeah, moving was fun), and the only way I've been able to hear my...
Milestone: this morning I could hear my refrigerator AS A REFRIGERATOR from ~15 feet away, not as a low budget slasher soundtrack.
Last November... I hope it was the subwoofer... because my chance of ever doing that to myself again is exactly zero.
Glad to hear you're doing well and hope you only continue to get better!
I think of static as the crackly sound, with hiss being more steady and smooth.
Teach one on one with an autistic adult; mostly playing with electronics. It went pretty well again.
Pretty mild trip to the grocery store. Let's see how my class goes this afternoon.
I can't believe you got away with writing something so profoundly thoughtless.
Nine months: still progressing in the same manner. I have two sources of income, a retail job and a one-on-one teaching gig. The former is, as...
