    My Tinnitus Seems Variable with External Sound?

    Hi Guys, I haven't been on the forum for a few weeks. Things have certainly improved, although I must admit the sound is exactly the same, and the reactive T is still reactive. The reason things have improved is that I have changed how I perceive the T. It still blows up in cafes, pubs...

    My Tinnitus Seems Variable with External Sound?

    I saw 2 separate Gp's in a week. Annoyingly neither of them suggested steroids. One said it was menieres which it clearly wasn't, and the other said it was a tumour and referred me to get an MRI. I'm gutted that I didn't go to a&e since they may have referred me to an ent quicker. I'm left with...

    My Tinnitus Seems Variable with External Sound?

    @GregCA I have seen 2 specialists since the first 2 weeks, and they have told me the window is 48 hrs to a week max. I havent heard of a 2 month window. Also the Baha would conduct the hearing across to the the right ear, and play the sounds through the good ear

    My Tinnitus Seems Variable with External Sound?

    Following my ENT visit, he annoyed me saying that the GP that I saw should have offered me steroids. I've been told this by 2 people now after the event. Great. Too late!! He has offered a trial of Baha, but it looks really serious, and I'm not sure that it will help. He has also recomended...

I have an ENT appointment soon which will shed some light on things. I'm now trying to look forward to small wins and little achievements. I read that some...

    My Tinnitus Seems Variable with External Sound?

    @Lorac I too am looking at a CROS, and am trialing a CROS hearing aid at the moment, but again its making more noise in my good ear which in turn creates more T in the bad ear. Grr. Otherwise I quite liked it. Currently I am slowly trying to integrate my hearing back to loud noises. I sat in a...

    My Tinnitus Seems Variable with External Sound?

    @Lorac Thanks for your response, I was worried that it was tied up in my brain. My Tinnitus was caused by a "stroke" in my brain, which starved the cochlear of oxygen (I have been told at my initial ENT meeting) and then sent me deaf in the left ear. I didnt go to Accident & emergency since the...

    My Tinnitus Seems Variable with External Sound?

    Thanks guys. I feel like I have 2 T's. One seems to be in my head, and only when i go to bed can i hear it in my right (good ear), but the T in my left (bad) ear also makes my ear feel "full" or pulsates a little when I hear noise in my good ear

    My Tinnitus Seems Variable with External Sound?
