What Is This? When I Speak My Head Starts to Vibrate?

When I speak my head starts to vibrate? I am very scared. I didn't have this before

 

Hyperacusis sometimes makes one's voice resonate very loud. Sometimes it seems you are yelling into your own ears if you raise your voice, but I dont know if that's what you are describing.

 

that's it.

 

when I talk it resonates in my head

 

Interesting. Does your tinnitus have a roaring sound? Perhaps you have Patulous Eustachian Tube. Thats when your ETs are stuck open. It causes your voice to resonate.

 

it is a static sound with ringing (two sounds).

 

Try doing the valsalva maneuver. Can you feel your breath behind your eardrums? Thats what can cause PET.

 

I am sensitive to loud noises.

 

I am sensitive to sounds (loud). This wasn't the case before! A few weeks ago I only had T and now I have H too.

 

My H appeared around a week after my T. I got T in the last week of July and H on August 1 last year.

At first, everything seems too loud and glassy, but not painful. I didn't wear any ear protection because there was no pain, and general advice said to protect only in loud places (which I already avoided anyway). As the next few months passed, symptoms have come and gone, and one of those was the booming voice. I had that for a couple of weeks, I think. It went away. But I have way worse symptoms to deal with now.

 

what are your symptoms now?

 

Hi everyone!
I was looking for a thread like this to compare the most annoying symptom i have since 2012....

(in short resume)
I have a mild T in both ears since 1999 because of loud music...but i guess i was constantly pushing my luck until one night 5 years ago, seating with friends near a loud speaker in a bar (so stupid i was even the fact i was the only one affected in that moment....)

Since there i become very sensitive to sounds (so called H) most on left ear and not need to exceed much in dbs to bother me (more than 65/75 db) and also got a significant loss after 4000HZ (left ear only).

I already visit a lot of ENTs but no one really helped me or advise how to solve and minimise this intense hissing in my left ear....
Also (and beyond affect my speaking) i have a high sensibility on the left side of my face (probably auditory nerve inflamed after noise exposure....)
The only relieve i can have (for a while) is keep myself isolated in total silence the most hours as possible and this sensitive can be more torable....when back to exposition again to sounds (normal conversations / TV / etc....) everything is ruin back again.....

Enyone with similar symptoms here on this forum (sensibility when touch the face/cheek)????

I cant find any solution!
Dont really know what specialist i need to consult more (and i visited a lot: regular and alternative approach.....)

 

Lingering burning pain, but that was caused by a terrible setback in July this year.

 

I have feelings of pain, pressure and numbness in the right side of my face (temple and upper cheek, but can extend to other areas) that are made worse by noise. I am as confused about it as you are. It is my most awful symptom.

Doctors have no explanation for it.

Benzodiazepines are the only thing that make it go away, but when I stop taking them it comes back.

It is said that TTTS (tonic tensor tympani syndrome) can irritate the trigeminal nerve, and thus cause symptoms like these.

I mostly just put up with it. I watch TV even though the TV makes it worse, because I'm tired of living without the sounds I enjoy at home. I do my best to try and ignore it. I'm hoping that eventually the symptoms will just go away.

 

@Sen
Thank you for share this!

I already tried benzodiazepines but no results at all for me!
I guess this extra symptom is even more rare here on TT forum....

Most likely is TTTS (tonic tensor tympani syndrome) as i know affect the trigeminal nerve (and the reason for face sensibility)...

But here (in Portugal) no one gave me effective solution for treatment....Im just tired of useless ENTs (waste of time and money)......

In my case, i miss listening music as i done before (is a emptiness life since 2012!)

My hopes are now 99% in the research field of auditory regeneration!

Cheers!

 

Keep in mind that TTTS has not actually been proven to exist. There are anecdotal reports of patients receiving a TTTS diagnosis that were later examined by some of the world's best doctors in the field and determined to have nothing wrong with the functioning of their tensor tympani muscle.

TTTS is a hypothetical condition that clinicians use as a way to explain the cause and effect of symptoms that nobody fully understands. That isn't to say the hypothesis has no merit, but it's not nearly as open and shut as those giving the diagnosis would have you believe.
