Hi everyone,
I was introduced to the world of tinnitus 3 months ago, and i'm blown away by what you all must be dealing with and I would like to share my experience with tinnitus.
It started with a mild background white-noise, and followed by a few days with high pitch sounds before it's stabilized as a mild white-noise. After 3 days, I visited ENT doctor and he tested both my ears with a tympanometry and concluded both my eardrums are stiff.
The ENT doctor recommended rinexin and cortisone nasal spray, I used that for two weeks with mixed results. After 4 weeks I visited my family doctor with tinnitus, and she told me to come back with after another 4 weeks.
Last week, I visited her again and I now got an appointment to drain the eustachian tube(s), but not before 8 weeks, cause she thinks this will fade away by itself.
My experience with my tinnitus..:

My experience with my tinnitus..:
- When there is silence I use chewing gum to make the tinnitus fade away.
- While at the gym the tinnitus is gone, totally.
- Talking and walking makes tinnitus fade away.
- Argue with my girlfriend makes my tinnitus worse ;-)
- Eating and drinking makes the tinnitus fade away.
