Okay, weird. In the middle of the night yesterday, my morse code sound turned into a lower-pitched tone with the same rhythm it always had for...
I'm near the end of a 12-day course of Prednisone. It hasn't helped but this late in the game I didn't expect it to. My doctor wanted me to find a...
I'm not sure if it was caused by marijuana or about 10 other possibilities, but no. It's gotten quite a bit worse. Hanging in here though, but...
That video is similar to mine, but mine's a bit lower in tone. In the past 2 months I've picked up in my left ear: a morse code ringing, a high...
Hi Jerad. Sorry about the late response - I've been having a tough go at things since my last post. I'm not lingering long since I have an...
Thank you for the thoughtful response. My hope was that severing the nerve would remove the reactive part of this, as the zings immediately...
I try to keep a positive outlook, but this is steadily getting worse. Maybe it's just due to the lack of sleep as I'm still only getting about an...
At this point I don't know what could help. I have an appointment with a neurologist but the nearest available date wasn't until mid-June. For me,...
To update you @Jerad, I’ve stopped taking the Gabapentin after four nights. The last two nights, the baseline ringing and zings greatly increased...
So far, no, but I've only been on it two days now. I guess some people react to it quickly but others take a few weeks. I don't have high hopes...
My primary prescribed some Gabapentin yesterday after I told her I was hesitant to take the benzos I was given at the ER. The ER gave me 12 benzo...
I hope you got help at the ER. My wife eventually convinced me to go last week for similar reasons (average of 90 minutes of sleep a night for...
I’m new with reactive tinnitus so I’m still trying to figure it out. Mine is instantly reactive to most sounds which I believe is manifesting as a...
I’m so sorry you have to deal with the Morse code. Mine started only a week ago and it can be maddening so I can only guess what you’ve had to go...
Not really. Doing that as well as putting in an earplug at night slightly dulls the pain but it still prevents me from sleeping. It’s only...
I finally got in to see an audiologist. Cool dude, very knowledgeable and nice, but ultimately left me feeling that my only option is therapy to...
I had a full audiogram done today with ranges up to 15,000 Hz which showed some significant hearing loss in the left ear above 8,000 Hz. My hippie...
The thing I’m confused at with the reactive tinnitus is “what is it trying to accomplish?” Is it like a little kid who wants to sing LA LA LA...
Wish I could tell ya. I’m just getting started with mine about five weeks ago and I’m nearly ready to throw in the towel. Mine is an intermittent...
I’m sorry you have to deal with this too :( Is it for you both ears or only one ear? For me, only the left ear does it consistently. Every once...
Today when I got out of bed, I got up a little too quickly and started to black out. Tall person problems! For about two seconds all my tinnitus...
I've had suspicions that daily aerobic exercise has been a contributor with a new sound in my left ear. 5 weeks ago, a new high-pitched zing began...
Another night of 0 hours sleep, I'm ready to give NAC a shot. Do you have a link to what you personally take?
Whoa, I've never heard of a RedLightMan light. I'll have to look into that. I'll also do some research on NAC to see if I think it's worth a shot....
The glassy, knife-life sharpness you mentioned is a great way to describe them. Mine also sound like car brakes squealing but at an even higher...
I'm glad you found something that's helping a bit! Since your tinnitus is so similar to mine, maybe these will help me out too. I did a search for...
Mine got much, much worse overnight. I had taken 5 MG of THC edibles before I went to sleep, though I didn't have a panic attack. I was actually...
Phew, this is really starting to wear me out and I wish I knew the best way to proceed. Any kind of sound masking makes it go bonkers as if the...
Good luck :) Does Hydroxyzine work for sleep? I'm averaging around 2 hours a night for a month and I think it's really starting to weigh heavily...
I'll just say, hang in there! I'm rootin' for ya. Life will be good again for both of us.
I guess I'll try to summarize: What we're going through absolutely sucks, but it's also the kind of suckiness that gets even worse the more we...
Well that certainly sounds familiar. We're even similar in longevity as it relates to our old tinnitus. I've noticed I'm more sensitive to sounds...
I'm sorry you have to deal with this too. I'm sure everything we're experiencing has been experienced before by countless people, and countless...
Hmm... I think I just made a connection that I probably should have figured out weeks ago. For nearly two years, I've had a chronic cough,...
I've had high frequency tinnitus in both ears for around 20 years that luckily COULD be masked. The first year was rough but then things got...
Sometimes yes, sometimes no. My biggest hurdle now is that I used to adore my life and a huge part of me wants to be able to live exactly the same...
I have something to add that hopefully somewhere here can shed some light on for me. Early on with this new ear sound, I noticed I could...
I'll just make a quick update to say it's amazing how much better it feels after a decent night's sleep. It wasn't even a great night as I got...
I'd love to hear how things worked out for you. So many of your symptoms are similar to mine that it's almost like looking into the future.
For around a year, I'd use marijuana a couple times a week to help me relax for sleep in the form of edibles. Loved it. Really took my mind off...
I believe I'm having the revelation that my new ear sound is reactive to noises, but my old ear sounds aren't. What a conundrum! Any kind of...
I was able to get my ENT appointment pushed up to this evening and was hopeful to get some answers. I had an audiogram earlier in the week which...
Thank you for the response. It's not inherently oscillating in nature, no. It's mostly located in the left ear, however every once in a while it...
I'm not sure how I'm supposed to habituate to this new sound. It's too unpredictable and yet consistent. If it was anything like the old ringing,...
Hello everyone! I've had tinnitus in both ears for around 20 years. Each ear had 2 different sounds, a hiss and a high-pitched tone, and none of...
