@Travis Henry, I had my shots 2.5 months after onset. Oral steroids did nothing for me, so I didn't think injections would either. But after the...

@MaxRabbit, find a different ENT. I go to a chain called "ENT and ALLERGY." They're all over the country. They offer appointments within 48 hours...

@Travis Henry, yes, I think it would be 100% worth it to get the injections. Did you wind up getting them?

I'd tell myself not to overuse medication - that's what caused mine. But once it started and I realized it was permanent, I'd just tell myself it...

@DimLeb, your negativity isn't needed here. I eat normally and am very healthy and this supplement made a difference for me. Take your inability...

@Renka, where did you have the wick inserted? I would like to try to find an ENT to perform this procedure. Where did you get the Dexamethasone?...

@Jerad, how did taking the vitamin go? Any improvement?

@John Joseph, for me, it took 3 shots to get the benefit. It's pretty instant once it works though, 24 hours after the shot. The improvement...

@Travis Henry, I've been to the psych ward too - they're awful places. I don't see how they help anyone. I'm sorry you had to go through that.

@David S, it improved, but it's still difficult to totally mask. I just feel it's slightly less intrusive and bothersome than it was.

Doesn't CFS usually eventually improve, even if after a few years' time? There's still hope for you @danielthor.

@David S, I'm taking this: Source Naturals Coenzymated B-1 25mg Fast Acting Thiamin Cocarboxylase Quick-Dissolve - 60 Lozenges I have unilateral...

I've been taking this supplement about 9 days now and my tinnitus is 100% significantly less intrusive. I have to say this stuff works. I didn't...

You're right - I had a serious insomnia problem due to bipolar mania - I was only getting 2 hours of sleep per night. That's why my dose was so high.

I look forward to hearing if Neosensory works for you. If it does, please post a review.

@John Joseph, I only got the injections in my left ear. My right ear has normal hearing and no tinnitus. But my left ear has severe tinnitus so...

I shouldn't have said "non-addicting." What I meant is "not a controlled substance" like Ambien. And if Seroquel didn't make you sleepy you may...

Trazodone is a good alternative to Mirtazapine. I was on both for a while and got off of Mirtazapine because it loses its ability to make you...

I've only had it done in one ear, but I imagine they would do one ear and then do the other immediately after. I don't see why they'd make you...

I've taken it for 3 days. Things seem very slightly better, but I could be imagining it. I wouldn't say this supplement makes a huge difference.

I ordered some last week, took my first lozenge yesterday and I notice today my tinnitus seems ever so slightly better. Not sure if it's a...

That's terrible. I hate having to lie on the audiogram to get injections. It's so stupid because it always helps the tinnitus greatly. But ENTs...

@Travis Henry, how did the injections go?

Find a new ENT. I was only at -35 dB at 6 kHz and they did 3 intratympanic injections. They tried oral steroids first, but it didn't do anything....

Any updates @Bhop? How are you doing? Any better?

Large doses of Vyvanse make my tinnitus and hearing permanently worse. By large dose I mean 120 to 180 mg in a 24-hour period. My normal dose is...

@scotty03874, they'll do it for mild/moderate hearing loss. It increased my audiogram reading quite a bit and greatly helped my tinnitus. They do...

I'm getting them in NJ, USA at a franchise ENT clinic called "ENT and ALLERGY". They have 44 locations in NJ alone. I see Dr. Denny Varugheese and...

Take the medicine. I'm surprised 20 mg is all he's giving you. Usually it's 60 mg for 2 weeks. You don't need to taper 20 mg after 5 days.

I'm in the US and have had 7 intratympanic injections. They work wonders when combined with NAC. When I get them while taking NAC, it makes a...

I went to an ENT and got a Dexamethasone IT injection yesterday. It lowered the volume so much. I'm so happy and relieved. I can live again! I...

Glad to see you are still with us @danielthor.

My tinnitus keeps getting worse. I can't take it. I'm constantly filled with suicidal thoughts. It sounds like loud feedback from an amplifier. I...

I'm so sorry Travis. Hoping and praying it gets better for you. My mom would always say "it will get better, don't worry." And I would get so...

@danielthor, I hate to know you are suffering to this point. Please explain your condition and what brought you to this conclusion.

@Jerad, how do you fall asleep if you're constantly getting zapped? Does it subside when you are trying to go to bed? Or are you just able to fall...

How do I get prescribed Klonopin for my tinnitus? Do I ask my ENT? My GP? What should I tell them to get it prescribed?

There is another one taking place in France that will be recruiting soon. The sign up link is below. Give them your name and email. It says "Even...

Does anybody dream about their tinnitus? On days when it's bad, I have dreams about trying to make the noise stop. It's depressing, as even during...

No, I mean as in tinnitus. Hopefully he'll go easier on the judgement because we have tinnitus lol.

God isn't going to save us from tinnitus. I'm pretty sure God invented tinnitus.

I'm waiting to hear back from them about the cost after insurance. Assuming it's reasonable, I'll be going the week of May 16th. If I go, I'll let...

What's strange is that corticosteroids are prescribed for tinnitus onset and hearing loss. It's rare that it makes tinnitus worse, although it's...

I had a bad spike starting on Sunday. I decided to give fasting a try. I fasted for 7 days. No food, only water, medication, and vitamins. The...

I hate what tinnitus has done to my thought process too. I spend all my time constantly checking it, thinking about "is it louder, is it softer,...

I love loud restaurants. It's one of the few places my tinnitus is masked.

If you're already suicidal and have reached the end, trying a treatment couldn't hurt since you're already at your limit. If you haven't reached...

I didn't ask. But since they still do it I'd imagine they have some success with lessening the severity of the tinnitus. I read online average...

@Jerad, do you use masking? What about at night? What procedures have you tried for your tinnitus?

I called Shea Clinic and they still do this procedure. Has anyone had this done recently? Who has had any results from this procedure?

Does anyone know where in the US I can have a Dexamethasone and Lidocaine profusion? Does Shea Clinic still do them?

I'm doing okay @Bhop. I just had a round of 3 intratympanic injections of Dexamethasone for my hearing loss. It lowered the volume of the tinnitus...

I want you to know that I’m thinking about you @Bhop. I’ve thought about you everyday since I read your post. If you’re ever in New Jersey, USA,...

I took a nitric oxide supplement called Berkeley Life Professional Nitric Oxide Support which caused recurrent SNHL. My tinnitus and hearing loss...

Have you thought about deep brain stimulation? There is a clinical trial you may be able to get into: Deep Brain Stimulation for Tinnitus It has...

I have also taken Zyprexa. No effect on my tinnitus. I currently take Mirtazapine and Trazodone though. Zyprexa caused me to have sleep apnea so I...
