Penicilins do not affect my tinnitus at all but ppi like pentoprazol do. Good to know !

Hopefully last night in the hospital. I can't wait to go back home and sleep in my bed with my cat

Everything was going OK at the hospital until I was put in a room with someone hooked to various extremely loud beeping machines. I got blasted with high pitched pure tones and my tinnitus is not liking that

Currently hospitalised because I have air around my heart. They have to put me on penicilin and I'm SCARED. No choice if I don't want to die though

I don’t know if it’s exactly the same, but I also experience a cyclic low tone in my right ear only. I would describe it as sounding like Morse code, but more similar to pipe noises. For me, it often turns into a constant hum by the end of the day or at night. It usually takes a few weeks or...

So, if I understand correctly, they have not yet obtained FDA clearance, but they have begun the process to apply for it?

I still use TikTok. Tinnitus is not going to take away another thing I enjoy. However, I only use it without sound unless I am certain the video does not contain any strange or potentially triggering sounds. I am not too concerned about videos where people are just talking, or content from...

I’m aware that any kind of healing will probably take years, but I’m confused about what the safest route is in the meantime. The problem is that this reactivity is only getting worse, and it started fairly recently. It began in my left ear three months ago after I listened to a “soothing music”...

I accidentally listened to the coil whine on my monitor while looking for the source of some noise I was hearing and now I have this awful new tinnitus sound. It's been 24h. Scared I gave myself a new permanent sound...

It happened to me. I was searching for a friend’s username on TikTok, and the first result was one of those pure frequency tracks that are supposed to “heal your soul and chakra” or something like that. This caused a new sound in the ear that was exposed, which lasted for three days. It...

Hello everyone, As some of you might have read, I’m doing much better lately. My tinnitus is more stable, my spikes are shorter, and my hyperacusis is improving. However, there is one very specific sound that makes my tinnitus go haywire, and I can’t avoid it. The sound is just a beep, but not...

I’m following the same path. I’m 15 months in, and my hyperacusis has started to improve as well. Just last month, even my cat’s purring felt too loud, but now I can listen to outside noises like cars without feeling the need to use protection. My tinnitus has also become much more stable...

Hello, Yes, I have! I already know that my posture is directly responsible for my transient tinnitus episodes, so I’ve been working extensively on it. I bought a desk chair with upper back support and armrests, and I actively try not to slouch. I also noticed that all pillows hurt my neck...

My radiator was super loud, which caused an accidental sound enrichement in my room for 2 days. My hyperacusis today is almost gone and my T doesn't react. I've decided to do sound enrichment by opening the windows

May Update: This month I’m doing better. Tinnitus still has its ups and downs, but I have hope, as I’m experiencing more and more periods where it doesn’t bother me as much. As a result, I’ve been sleeping very well, which significantly reduces my tinnitus. Sleeping well also greatly decreases...

I managed to obtain the PDF. The pharmacological treatment includes Amitriptyline, Clonazepam, and Ginkgo Biloba. I only skimmed through the text, but the aim and conclusion of the article are to demonstrate that pharmacological treatments alone are less effective than a combination of...

I am asking my partner, who has institutional credentials, if he can access it. If not, you might have some luck by emailing the author directly.

Hello everyone, I’ve had tinnitus for a year now, and although I am coping much better—and sleeping much better too—I am still struggling with certain noises. My tinnitus is not constant. By that, I mean it can shift quickly from a hiss to a ringing sound. One of the things that triggers these...

Currently trying to not care about my tinnitus and hyperacusis and it's actually working. Tinnitus is less reactive and when it is, it doesn't last long (except for the 2 days of ambulance siren phantom noise I got lol)

Oh, that’s good to know! What are your triggers, and what are you doing to avoid them? In my case, I’m currently wondering if I might have chronic sinusitis. I have a lot of breathing issues, and my TMJ specialist told me he could tell from my posture that I mouth breathe. I also suspect I...

I get similar sensations all the time when I am lying in bed. Usually, I can feel my tinnitus cutting in and out before it happens, so I have a chance to get up. But if I do not, I get the piercing tinnitus, which can last from 10 seconds to a few days. The longest it lasted for me was two days...

You also have to be proficient in Dutch. I would have participated otherwise 😢

If you find something, could you let us know what you buy? I’m interested too!

We also had mold issues in our bedrooms, and the two times it happened, my tinnitus lessened a lot after clearing the mold.

Since last November, I've been having more and longer periods where my T is predominantly a hiss. Although it's also reactive, the intensity of neck and jaw pain I have is directly related to the loudness and nature of my T.

Update: I think I have a slight idea of what my baseline is, but the issue is that I cannot figure out how to stay at baseline. As I have mentioned, my tinnitus is extremely reactive and somatosensory. The problem is that I am a very tense person. Even the slightest stress causes all my...

A car alarm also went off during my sleep, and my tinnitus has mimicked that for a few days now.

I cannot WAIT to move out. Got woken up by someone vacuuming for the second time in the week. When it's not vacuums, it's alarms. I rarely have a full night of sleep; it's insane.

I get a tingling sensation from my cheekbone to above my lips when i'm exposed to too much sound. It's not painful but it's annoying. I used to get that when i was very stressed or when my tmj is very bad. Does anyone else have that?

Well, i don't think i'll be able to get out of my protections in my house. Constant vacuum and power tool noises today. Yesterday got blasted with a high pitch pure tone coming out of nowhere. Looking to move out

Trying to stop wearing earmuffs in my home. The psychological aspect is hard to overcome ! On a good note, my reactive tinnitus is a bit less reactive.

Have you been able to completely stop using protection at home? I am dealing with the exact same issue. My tinnitus has also improved a lot thanks to protection, but I would like to be free from it in my own house.

Does tinnitus itself affect REM sleep, or is it tinnitus-related anxiety that prevents a good night’s sleep? To add my two cents, ever since developing tinnitus, I’ve started waking up multiple times per night. I used to be a heavy sleeper despite having anxiety before acquiring tinnitus. Even...

I relate to this a lot. I go through cycles lasting anywhere from two weeks to a month and a half. Last November, I had just a hiss for a full month—I felt like my struggle was over. Then one day, it started ramping up again. Over the past few days, it has doubled in intensity, and I have no...

Hello everyone, It’s been one year since my tinnitus began, and unfortunately, I haven’t habituated yet because it changes every two months. I don’t react strongly to it anymore (except when I get brand-new sounds), but I can’t ignore it. It started as a very high-pitched ringing in February...

I also have lower-frequency tinnitus. In fact, all my tinnitus sounds are below 2000 Hz. In my case, the sound is localized to one ear only. In my right ear, I have a 500–600 Hz pipe-like sound, which I believe is due to TMJ. In my left ear, I sometimes get a hum when I overprotect.

Hello, Have you noticed any pressure in your jaw when you wear or remove your Invisalign? Do you find yourself clenching more while wearing it? I’m not a doctor, but tinnitus can sometimes be caused or worsened by jaw-related issues. I’m in a similar situation—though I have a retainer instead...

As others have mentioned, it is most likely fleeting tinnitus. I’ve experienced quite a lot of those episodes over the past few months as well. It could also be related to your stress levels since tension in the neck can cause it.

Hello! I developed one tinnitus sound after a dentist appointment. I already had TMJ, which started after my wisdom tooth removal. During a night guard fitting, I had to keep my mouth open for too long, and this caused a very low-pitched hum on one side. Sometimes the hum lessens to the point...

The exact same thing happened to me. One of my sounds appeared after I kept my mouth open for too long at the dentist. It lessened over time, but whenever I wear my night guard, it becomes extremely loud again. I also suffer from TMJ, and my tinnitus is noise-induced.

Damage might be a bit of a stretch here. As I was taught, brain damage refers to the destruction of brain cells. Unless tinnitus was caused by such damage, I do not think most people with tinnitus have brain damage. Brain damage is also considered to be quite permanent. If tinnitus were truly...

Sending lots of hope your way—that must have been terrifying. Did you end up taking the Prednisone? Even for the sinus infection, isn’t it strange that you weren’t prescribed Prednisone?

I experienced this last month. The deafness was very brief, but the ringing lasted for several hours. It took an entire month to settle down a bit, but it is still not close to baseline. As a result, the ringing returned in my good ear. I also experienced a lot of fleeting tinnitus episodes...

Stardew Valley, Terraria, Slay the Spire, Mario Kart, Factorio. I've been playing a lot of Red Dead Redemption 2 lately, and it's an excellent game. And let's not forget my absolute favorite, Cuphead. I love that game so much I became a speed runner of it!

I'd like to apologise to the moderators who have to correct all my broken english posts. Sorry :sorry:

Hello everyone, Lately, I’ve noticed that certain positions seem to trigger my SBUTT episodes. For those who might not know, SBUTT stands for Sudden Brief Unilateral Tapering Tinnitus. It’s that sensation of sudden deafness accompanied by a very loud ring, which fades away within seconds or...

At one point in my life, my misophonia was so intense that I would automatically yell “shut up” at babies. It was embarrassing, especially in public. I wish it were only crying and screaming that bothered me, but I can’t stand their laughter, talking, or cooing either. 😩

I finally got clonazepam prescribed instead of clorazepate! I really hope it will help spikes
