@BrOKeN_1 thank you and it really does!! I can definitely look back on my good and bad T days based on sleep quality.
@Matt G I’m sorry to hear about the hyperacusis and TTTS! But thats great you’re doing better mentally. I don’t know when my shift mentally was,...
Been a month since last post, and now Im laying in bed with the quietest T ever. Ive had two incredible days in a row & am very grateful :)
Sorry for not being on here in a month @Matt G! That sucks to hear that you’ve had it return, but yes like you said if you got better before...
@Matt G thank you and yes I am! Did have a bad day yesterday but today is much better. I hope you’re doing better too :) @Steph1710 thank you!! I...
Hi all, cant believe Ive been gone a month! New job is amazing & super quiet! T is better & less reactive too. Hope youre all doing well :)
Accepted a new job Thurs! Sad to be leaving my amazing coworkers, but really happy to be leaving this loud printer in our office behind lol
I was able to play two softball games last night with no spike today, and for that I am super thankful :)
I hope everyone who celebrates had a great Christmas! I had my own little Xmas miracle and went and saw a movie with no spike afterward :)
@Shelbylynn Oh definitely! The next night I woke up about 3 times, and sure enough it was louder that day.
So I had my absolute most quiet day so far yesterday and I think it had something to do with me sleeping ELEVEN hours that night LOL
@BrOKeN_1 I'm sorry to hear you're in the same boat! And I definitely am. I really appreciate taking showers now because it's one of the few times...
@Keith Handy it has definitely gone down and gotten better. I can sleep better and the sensitivity is less, so for that I'm extremely thankful....
One year anniversary update: Honestly can't believe I'm still here, still thinking about tinnitus. I've run the gambit of emotions as many of you...
1 year ago today, I went to bed with a ringing ear that would change my life completely. Looking back, I didn't appreciate silence enough.
Well made it a week of not posting when I was having good days & today its back to crappy. Still quieter than it was months ago but like >(
Yo when will I learn to not post when I'm having a good day on here cuz the next day is almost guaranteed to be super loud and suck??
I wanted to update and say my T has been super quiet the last few days! Feeling lucky!!
Hope everyone had a great Halloween!!!
Cuz Im stupid & enjoy jinxing myself, today is a new personal low for me (even better than Monday) after just having 2 terribly loud days!!
@Keith Handy thank you Keith, same to you! @Wrfortiscue thank you! It seems a little higher today but I didn't sleep great (and I'm sick so...
Thank you @ZFire and @ALS ! Fingers crossed it lasts into tomorrow!
New record low for me today! Both ears are pretty even, & noise is at a crackly hiss still. Coming up on 11 months and hope to be done soon
@Damocles Everyone should definitely have a tuba player or two following them! XD It was so much fun and the energy was great from them, but I was...
Back from short vacation yesterday. Loudest T was the night after a college FB game & we walked back to our car WITH the marching band lol
Another wedding last night & I remembered my earplugs! Had a few random louder T moments once the band started playing but today Im fine! :)
@Steph1710 omg, lucky!! I want to go to Italy (and England lol) so bad! Where are you going while you're there? And I hope it's a good flight for...
@ALS Crap, I was hoping to not have to wear earmuffs for a 3.5 hour flight. I'll definitely be bringing mine then! And my ears have had problems...
Getting on an airplane in a week & am only now realizing that could be a bad idea. Any recommendations? Are noise-canceling headphones good?
Kinda wish my ears would go back to straight ringing rather than the battling cicadas noise it's been for the last 6 months.
T's been soooo quiet the last few days, but then I went to the gym last night & it's loud now. Really doesn't motivate me to exercise haha
JohnnySwim! Are you a fan of Fixer Upper? They would be cool to see :) And I hope one day you can see shows again. NEEDTOBREATHE was amazing and...
I take 5mg occasionally. When T was really bad, it would be almost every night. I don't think it did a thing to help my T, but it did make it...
Boss is doing training now so our giant industrial printer is shut off. It's so quiet in our office and I'm in heaven and T is super low!
That's awesome to hear that's helping, and I'm sure the hearing aids will too! :) I've joined the gym with my sister and just ugh...how do you...
Thanks :) It's actually been getting louder as the day goes on, which is so annoying. I just wish I knew why mine fluctuates with good day/bad...
Yesterday was quiet, back to loud today. But overall my loud days are quieter than months ago, so that's good! Still hoping for silence soon
Thank you! It was my first concert since pre-Covid. And funnily enough the last show I went to was Switchfoot! I hope you're doing good too bud :)
Switchfoot/NEEDTOBREATHE concert last night. T is a bit higher than yesterday but overall, still pretty low! Had my earbuds in & was fine :)
Great to hear you've had some relief in the last few days!! And I hope the hear aid can give you even more relief :)
Thinking of you too, bud! I'm doing much better today, it's almost silent. Yesterday it spiked after seeing Shang Li in theatres (but with my ear...
Honestly can't tell right now if it's my T or the damn cicadas outside that's fluctuating badly cuz they sound so alike -_-
1st update in 2 weeks and doing way better. The reactivity is lessening, and I was able to go see a movie on Sunday with no spike! :)
I just passed my 8th month of having ear infection-induced tinnitus so it's good to see progress with someone else! I'm down to relatively quiet...
2 days in a row of super low T, even after going to a comedy show last night (with earplugs in, though). Im sick today but still feel great!
Thurs was great, Fri sucked, then Sat & Sun were both VERY quiet. Today is a bit louder with a higher pitch, but I can handle it!
Held back tears at work yesterday it was so bad, today is the most normal & quiet day Ive had in 8 months? This is a rollercoaster ride lol
I honestly think Im over the worst of this, with brief periods of silence! But then I randomly get super loud days like today to ruin it -_-
Think my left ear is near back to normal after over 4 months since it started going! Now I just need the right one to get with the program.
Went to the gym for 1st time last night & T is louder/more fluctuating today. But not as loud as it would be after softball months ago!
Going for a new record today...two days in a row of really quiet T. If I can break this pattern I'll be happy!!
This cyclical pattern to my T is so annoying. Two days of quiet, which foolishly gives me hope Im near done. Then back & sh*tty the next day
Today was already loud, then I ate lunch with coworkers in a restaurant and now it's even worse. This is some hot garbage, I tell yah.
Yesterday was fantastic, today it's buzzing like mad. How do I know my ears are actually healing when it comes back louder 24 hours later??
Todays so much worse than yesterday. I dont know what I seem to keep doing wrong but I just want to cry. Losing hope this will ever be gone.
Can't believe today marks month #7 of this BS. Today is the quietest it's been yet, but will it last til tomorrow? Guess I'll find out! :/
I seem to just have a trend of good day, bad day, good day, bad day. Today's a bad day of fluctuating hissing -_-
My T just did a MAJOR shift down instantaneously, almost like at the snap of a finger while I'm at work. What?? Just hoping this lasts!
Had my first brief moment of silence last night! Today's T is louder, but I'm holding onto hope that more moments of silence are coming.
T has dropped off a lot over the last 2 weeks. Still have spikes, but they're more manageable now. Also adopted my 1st dog & Im super happy!
