I am saying no, but mainly as I feel this helps me not let it take over, and in fairness it's getting better, either that or I am habituating.

It actually doesn't bother me that much now. I have either developed, or always had and just noticed, quite a lot of eye floaters, some quite big,...

Coconut water is very good for you. Potassium and electrolytes.

I wonder if this would push to Cider.

Life wouldn't change much. I suspect many people would just find something else to worry about! It's human nature.

If you need an MRI, you should get one. Just double up ear protection. It was absolutely fine for me.

I had one and it wasn't that noisy. Had ear plugs and then further sound dampener over that. Reduced noise hugely.

I would try to get off all.medication and not look.for any others. Seriously.

Don't mask. I found masking I slept worse and sometimes really struggled. Stopped masking and just let my mind wonder. Of course, this may depend...

About 8 weeks after the tinnitus started, I started to notice quite a few floaters. Mainly small, but one or two bigger ones that when I finally...

I think it depends on severity. I am getting less bothered each day.

Mri unlikely to show anything, but to an extent has to.be done just in case. Good luck.

I don't mask at all at night, and I feel I am getting better. Four months in.

It's probably the anxiety and stress that comes with T. Hopefully your eyes will get better as you adjust and also with any luck get better.

Hi.again, Where are you based? What is your t like?

Sorry to hear this. I would stop or taper down as much medication as you can and start eating lots of healthy antioxidants. Keep the magnesium,...

I wouldn't risk it to be honest. Just my view though.

Have you always had the morse code beeps? Or is it new? That all I had. One side only. How loud is this element?

Great to hear this and for taking the time to post it rather than drifting away, it shows some cases can improve or resolve. I am nearly four...

Hi @LadyDi Well I mask in a sense through the day by keeping busy, working, radio and TV. My tinnitus isn't too bad, or that's what I tell...

I guess it might depend on severity, but I very quickly came to the view that complete masking isn't a good thing. I have completely stopped...

@James P You might get it back. I think your t might go actually. You didnt have huge noise exposure. Matt

Some interesting info, but clearly the survey will be skewed in places. In particular, cured and improved on the relevant pie chart will be, you...

Am signing off with just one other thought. Great and informative as it is, I don't think this forum is fully representative of tinnitus and...

Hyperbaric Oxygen Treatment. Breathing pure oxygen at pressure in a tank.

How about a Beaver then?

Yeah, totally disagree with some of the posts here, not to mention this is an important support forum. No I don't like it, but things change, and...

This sounds like what I have had the last 3 months, or at least the severity. Mine is like morse code, but is easily masked during the day. If...

I think the above post is good. The more I think about it, the more everybody on here bends over backwards to accommodate their condition and...

Am trying not to take too many supplements, but I think a small magnesium supplement is a good idea. It's just like eating loads of dark green...

What's a typical good response? 'I can hear the tinnitus, but my life is still good and it doesn't worry me now'. How would that response be? Ok?...

I wonder if it's common in something like Woodpeckers...

Sorry to hear this, it could well drop back down. What is the tinnitus like in tone, frequency?

I still think if you can find a way through the worst of it, then things will get better. It could go away, it has for some, and there will be a...

While you are alive there is hope. Pretty confident there will be a cure inside 10 years.

Hang in there. It could well get better, or even go. Personally, with you just 6 weeks in, I would look at HBOT. It has proven results inside 3...

Yes, but in practice I don't see how anybody can do this. If you suddenly start with tinnitus, you really should see a specialist first and also...

I am beginning to think this is tentatively having some improvement for me. On a broader point, the more I read about possible supplements, sound...

Just on the above few posts. I know two people who have had it 30 years and generally neither worsened.

I wish you all the best. I have had tinnitus for 3 months, and this forum has given some great advice and support, and your time is appreciated....

I believe around 40 feet.

Just on the above, if you like alcohol, I would go for a glass of red wine, as at least it's an antioxidant, which may help.

My profile fits the trial quite well and therefore I am considering contacting them. Are there any potential nasty side effects? Eyes?

Not sure about classing HBOT as palliative. If the oxygen can repair the damage you talk about early on, this is maybe why some people do see...

I would like to think the cures section of the pie chart is artificially low given the survey is directly from a tinnitus forum.

I too am sorry you are going through this, especially @Telis and others with very severe symptoms. Nobody should make light of it, and if they do,...

I can identify with the original poster. Thinking about it all the time and just coming up to 3 months. I stick my finger in my ear loads. It's...

I think it's worth a go based on the evidence I have seen. I think the risks are very low, and there should be a professional in the dive with...

What is your tinnitus like?

HBO is based on the ltd studies, more effective inside 3 months, so I would start sooner rather than later if you want to give it a try.

Very interesting post. If all was accurate you would be a world authority on tinnitus!, as it's certainly more than my ENT seemed to know. In all...

Hi, Firstly, great avatar original poster, I loved that first series in the travel tavern, cried with laughter many times! I have had quite a few...

Do we have any feedback from anybody in Ireland who has purchased one?

There are plenty of people here with good hearing.

Not sure on any pattern. I need to see how the rest of the week goes. Generally nights were quite faint apart from a handful of times and sleeping...

I have tried this treatment. Strangely, I find the ascent tougher than the descent. Not sure if it's in my head, but my affected ear always feels...

Some good advice here. Whilst I don't have the hyper sensitivity to sound, I must admit I absolutely hate vacuuming now as the Hoover seems really...
