Hello I'm a Newbie

Hello everyone. I'm a newbie I have tinnitus as a result of an ear infection 6 weeks ago. I'm still in the hiding stage as my anxiety levels are through the roof. I am feeling a little better this week and think I will go back to work next week as I'm so bored at home!
I am a keen runner and read that running makes T worse does any one have any thoughts here?
Thank you
Suzy

 

Hello Suzy.
I do a lot of long distance running myself, i guess everyone is different when it comes to T and exercie. Mine flares up during and directly after. Use to settle down after a while. The benefits from it is Worth every Little temporay increase.

 

Thank you Nick
Yes I agree better to keep fit and yes is only temporary. This is a great site and has been such a comfort to me.
Best wishes and happy running

 

Hi SuzyZ,....You'll find some comments regarding the effect of running and exercise on their T in this thread:

Thank you Jim H still getting to grips with all of this! Not finding many positives but this sie has really supported me thanks again

 

Thank you Suzy.

Remember that a lot of people writing their thoughts and feelings about T is in the early stages like you, lots of negativity. The ones that moved on don´t often post about it. My advice that i sadly didn´t follow in my own beginning would be, gather the information you need and then move on. Reading about T and focus to much on it will do no good.

And finally.. Remeber that whatever you read on the net, you are not guilty to feel anxiety when having T. It´s very easy to get that feeling when reading around. Life is liveable even with T.

 

Thank you Nick I will get there I'm determined for my sake and for my family. Best wishes to you and thank you for your support and encouragement it is really appreciated
Big hug to you
