Magnesium Could Offer Fresh Hope to Tinnitus Sufferers

Thanks, will do, I was interested in B2 was noted in helping with T.

So I was conducting a trial into its effectiveness. Currently no discernible difference is noted.
I read up on magnesium in some medical journals, they referred that up to 400 mgs was tolerable dose of magnesium.

My head thus way after conversing with my MD.

 

Hi everyone, I've had tinnitus for 2 weeks now. I am still waiting to see a specialist to investigate what might be going on, but like many other people, it's incredibly stressful, depressing, and maddening. I am only 26 and have been exposed to very few loud environments, that being said in the week prior to this beginning, I went to one unfortunately loud concert and had a stressful life event take place.

The tinnitus doesn't stop, it's in one ear, a high pitch ring. The other ear is intermittent buzzing but manageable. It's worse at night so I now have white noise going. I started taking 150 mg of Magnesium Citrate and may start trying Ginkgo Biloba. As soon as I leave my apartment or step outside, I can no longer hear it, which make's me feel like this is a mild form of tinnitus? Does your tinnitus follow you outside? Has anyone had tinnitus actually go away? Thanks.

 

Yes, it will follow you everywhere you go. Just start by taking care of your ears and staying away from loud places. Dont sit at home and think about this, it will only make it worst. If it goes away outside and then outside. The less you think about it the quieter it gets and it is a cumulative effect. It can go away if you don't have any underlying conditions.
Do the basics, no caffeine, no nicotine, exercise, eat right, no stress, no anxiety, listen to music etc etc. the quicker you start to do this the better chance you have of it not becoming cronic.

 

Since you have a mild T only 2 weeks after onset, if I were you, I would be optimistic about recovering. See also

Can stress and anxiety make T permanent?

 

Speaking from personal experience, magnesium is one of the only supplements that has made a discernable difference in my anxiety levels and it helped accelerate my habituation process. Even if it was just placebo secondary (through the muscle-stabilizing primary effect), it is worth taking a daily 200 mg + supplement.

 

@Kaelon, what kind of magnesium do you take? I go back and forth between magnesium glycinate and magnesium citrate, but I've read that threonate might be better.

 

Stress can make TT permanent.

I have ordered a couple bottles of above today. Sounds like it has better absorbtion rates and no side effects. I didn't like the chelated version.
