Thanks

It's not the sound that bothers me- it's the rentless shifting neck/shoulder tension. I mean it's really bad now. When my muscles are more...

I had a course of CBT and although the therapist was great, it wasn't want that helpful for T. Practicing Mindfullness is more beneficial.

I have. Chronic as well. Getting less and less sleep as time ticks on .....

Yep, been swimming regularly for the past 5mths. I don't put my head under the water though.

My god, this sounds like me!! I also have bone spurs on my neck but the MRI showed that it wasn't touching any nerves. I have horrible spasms,...

Have you tried Cold Laser Therapy?

Try cold laser therapy

Not sure. I would go with the saline if it's offered or the dry needling.

Both dry/saline have been known to be effective for trigger points. Talk to the specialist and see what he recommends.

Make sure you use distilled or boiled water with the Neti Pot!!

Stress? Medications? Do you sit at a desk for long periods of time? Have you been in any accidents eg whiplash?

I've had this affliction for over two years. You may never know the cause because there are many ways that people get T. The main culprit is noise...

I went to an Oseotopath when it all started. It worked ie silenced the T whilst I had the treatment. Maybe you should try having a sports massage...

I have to say that eating LESS has defiantly lowered my T.

Same here. But not everyday. I tend to get headaches in the morning.

A lot of people can change the volume/ pitch of their T by moving or pressing their jaw/neck/ head. With hearing loss, the somatic nerves are...

If you have a sinus infection why not try a Neti pot? The only way to get rid of trigger points is massage. The longer you have them, the harder...

Well, I think it's a combination of a lot of things- a truckload of stress and anxiety, coupled with working in front of a computer and possibly...

Yep, I kinda have the same thing. Mostly in my left ear. I frigging hate it at times.

This sounds like pulsative T. Did you get checked for vascular abnormalities? When and how do you think you got T?

You're welcome, Rina.

Get it ooooooooout! I had 2 weeks of antibiotics before root canal. Fine. No change in T. Wisdom tooth extraction. Fine. T a bit louder for a few...

Rina, it was fine! I absolutely hate Dentists, but the extraction was relatively quick and not as painful as expected. I was more worried about...

Oh yeah, I get this as well! I have to travel on public transport and it's been really challenging to say the least. I sometimes wonder whether I...

Hmmmm. I have the same thing when I excercise. Volume goes right down and the H isn't as bad. I've also noticed that eating better and eating less...

All the ENT people I spoke to believed that stress and anxiety can cause T. One audiologist claimed said that their ears would ring when under a...

Difficult to say. I see (and hear!!!) people everyday listening to music on max volume and they probably do that on a regular basis. Give the ears...

I had ultrasonic cleaning. No spike.

Let me know how it goes!

I tried the rolled up towel as well. Made my neck and head numb. A good quality pillow is absolutely essential. You won't get a proper night sleep...

Magnesium helps me relax. 200g half an hour before bed. Excercise also helps you relax. I personally will not put any crap in my body unless I...

Blimey! When I suggested that my T could be muscle related, my ENT nearly laughed in my face!! You could try some cold laser therapy which could...

Jeannie, have you looked into Trigger point massage and cold laser Therapy? I reckon it's worth a go! :)

Ha! I have most of your symptoms as well! I'm starting to get electrical zaps down my left arm. Mornings are vile, like I haven't sleep at all....

Ha! If this is the case, what can I do? Will this be a permanent condition? No ENT or Neurologist ever mentioned this!

I'm looking into this. I do have lots of painful trigger points along my spine and shoulder! Cold laser therapy is an option also. Thank you.

Yes, I did see an Osteopath in the beginning which helped a lot whilst I was having the session ie the T would vanish. But as soon as I head hit...

I think so too. My neck and back are in a shocking state. As I lay there my left ear tone morphed into a very scary noise. My nerves are shot. As...

Hi Glynis. Went to GP last week. Not interested. My ears are screaming now.

Yes, both ears. Not pulsating as such, although the fizzing/ hissing did have a sort of pulsating rhythm to it. I had this very bad a couple of...

I like listening to music, just not too loud. I've noticed that when I listen to my fav's that the ' chill down the spine' feeling is really intense.

What about spinal decompression with cold laser therapy? YouTube have lots on this! Might even try it myself!!!

Jeannie, have you had an MRI? It will show if you have a trapped nerve. I don't know what I'm going to do to be honest. If I do have this weird...

Saw my GP yesterday and after talking about Somatic T, she thought that my neck tension/ pain might be ' neurological recruitment'. My auditory...

Yes, I sometimes uses ear plugs if my T is going insane.

Yes, I wake up I'm the morning with headaches, neck, shoulder jaw head aches/ pain/ tension and waves of nausea.

I had exactly the same problem:banghead::banghead::banghead::banghead: doctor and neurologist were like ' NO!' What's the big deal? Why is it a...

:)

I don't think it's TMJD. I mean I can open my jaw wide with no pain but plenty of stiffness in my jaw. I do have plenty of sore/tenderness around...

The dentist should take an X-ray. If he sees that the nerve is wrapped around the root of the tooth for example, he may advise against an...

A few months after getting T I had to have root canal. I thought the same thing, but it made no difference whatsoever to my T. Had a wisdom taken...

Yep, it is normal for T to fluctuate in tone and volume.

have you had an X Ray/MRI/CS of your neck?

I hear it mostly in my ears, but sometimes with certain tones it's like it's outside my head. When I lie down my right ear tone disappears but is...
