Hello thanks for being here! I've had tinnitus for two years, starting after sudden hearing loss in 2012, 100% deafness.
My hearing has come back to a degree, though it's distorted. I can easily cope with the hearing loss, I have a hearing aid now too. It's the tinnitus causing distress. It's always there, sometimes manageable, but sometimes, more often than not, like today, horrendous.
I realise it can be linked to stress or anxiety, but this doesn't seem to be my problem. I have afib for which I've been prescribed beta blocker and warfarin.
Beta blocker is at the minimum dose, question is, has anybody linked their tinnitus to beta blocker use? I quite understand that my hearing loss could have been the cause, but I think it's been 100% worse in the last 6 months since medications. I get so fed up!
