Hey, I'm sorry to hear you're going through all that. Sounds awful; it reminded me of my time with ME/CFS :( Is Histamine Intolerance the same as...

Try Mirtazapine.

Do you have any more information regarding those bad stories? Since my tinnitus was brought by a virus, I have to be extra careful, and despite...

I ended up taking Avaxim (different brand) and so far, 6 days later, there is no effect on my tinnitus.

I take 3.75 mg of Mirtazapine every night and it works as well as 30 mg which was my starter dose. If you have access to a very knowledgeable...

No.

If you've only been on it for two months, you could taper really quick, like taking 0.5 mg less every day. Just cut the pill in 8 pieces and each...

Could be both the jab and Finasteride combined, PFS (Post-Finasteride Syndrome) has tinnitus among its many symptoms.

Did your tinnitus subside after stopping Xifaxan?

Flagyl is one of the antibiotic drugs they prescribe for SIBO along with Xifaxan. Good to know it's ototoxic for some people.

Does Shingrix use live virus? If not, and I believe that's the case, you could try Prednisone/Hydrocortisone injections in your ear or if you...

As someone advised, you can put captions and mute the sound. Another option is using earplugs. You would still faintly hear what they're saying,...

Yeah, this is true for most. Mine didn't really get better, I just adapted to it with time (6-8 months).

This happens to me at least once a month. I no longer pay attention to it, I guess because when you're used to tinnitus, the abnormal becomes part...

Yes, I know it can destroy some people's lives, but hadn't it been for the Mirtazapine, I would've pulled the plug due to my back-then crippling...

Sorry, do you mean it brought it back? Or that it put it into remission? Also, which autoimmune disease do you have if you don't mind telling?

Have you tried Mirtazapine? It's an atypical antidepressant which is used to treat insomnia as well. You could even get rid of the Sertraline too,...

In 10 years. No matter when you read this.

I was thinking about getting the Hepatitits A jab to travel to Vietnam, but reading this stuff makes me wonder if it'd be the best course of action...

How did it go? I know it's been 8 years so you're probably not going to answer, but worth the shot.

Doesn't Naltrexone mitigate the withdrawal symptoms? Some people even had improvement of their tinnitus while on Low Dose Naltrexone, so maybe you...

Yes, but next time try to not come off of it cold turkey but doing a slow tapering the same way people do with benzos. If anything, Gabapentin...

I say this because I also thought mine was super loud (it was and still is, actually) and impossible to habituate to, yet here I am 2 and a half...

Can you hear it in the shower? That's the key benchmark in my opinion. If you can't hear it in the shower without really focusing on it (and this...

Well, at least you tried. I think there's not much else you can do in the early stages aside from steroids and the low-level laser therapy (LLLT),...

I have no idea but I would not take them in that case because it would mean you're sensitive to medication, and you may be adding fuel to the fire.

If you're only one week out, you can try steroids like Prednisone or Dexamethasone. Especially if your tinnitus was caused by noise trauma.

Minoxidil and Saw Palmetto (the latter is considered snake oil by some though).

@roy1159, how are you doing?

Hey man, before doing anything so final you have to at least try psychedelic shrooms; there's evidence they can rewire and even generate new brain...

I managed to save enough money to buy three apartments, two of which are rented and provide me with passive income, and the third one is where I...

Yes, tinnitus did that to me in the early days. I planned an early retirement due to it and other health ailments like ME/CFS, because I couldn't...

It wasn't working at the café that initiated your ear problems, it was a virus. You said it yourself, you had a flu-like episode before everything...

Wow, I'm surprised to see how many people who have tinnitus also have ME/CFS. In my case the CFS (or rather PVFS since it only lasted a year)...

Mirtazapine saved my life from extreme suicidality due to sleep deprivation. I started taking 30 mg and have been reducing veeery slowly...

No, I took the one from Source Naturals, 300 mg, timed release. One pill a day with lunch for 30 days.

I tried it, it did nothing.

I'm gonna quote myself here on a post I made 18 months ago to throw in some positivity. Things have improved massively during this time in the...

It was 100% the Chinese coronavirus.

Aspirin is way riskier than Ibuprofen IMO. But if you think Nimesulide is better, give it a go. Although you'll probably have a harder time...

Ibuprofen is safe enough brother, I would worry more about the COVID-19.

The reason I developed MEM or TTTS wasn't Mirtazapine, it was COVID-19 induced ME/CFS. If anything, Mirtazapine only helped reduce it because...

I have to disagree on that. My tinnitus was also caused by a virus, and now loud noises spike it, which never happened pre-tinnitus. My theory is...

Yes, it's like a merry-go-round from hell. I guess some of us are just prone to misfortune, by some sick law of cosmic fuckery.

Man, not to undermine your situation, but that sounds like a walk in the park compared to ME/CFS which was the main inducer of my tinnitus. BTW,...

No, I didn't need it since Mirtazapine worked pretty well on me. 1.5 years later I still take it, although I've reduced the dose in half (from 30...

You can ask them to pray real hard that the big guy gives us a cure.

You should look into the new generation of drugs called Dual Orexin Receptor Antagonists. I see you're in the EU, they recently approved...

For sleep try QUVIVIQ if you have access to it. Otherwise you should take Mirtazapine instead of Clonazepam, which is not sustainable in the long run.

I disagree on this one. Many people get tinnitus after a small dose of ear drops, no matter their nature. So it's perfectly possible that...

Well, sudden hearing loss can occur at any time, even if you had an audiogram yesterday, you could get sudden hearing loss today, right? The key...

In order to get Prednisone you have to go the ER and say that you've suddenly lost your hearing and act freaked out. Doctors don't give a s***...

Yes, I agree with you regarding doctors being clueless and driven by big pharma money. But sometimes supplements just aren't enough and you need...

Yes, I know. And I wish I'd never read those threads because they prevented me from starting Mirtazpine earlier, which ended up saving my life....

Give Mirtazapine a little more time to work. It normally takes two weeks until it stabilizes the sleep pattern.

How did it go?
