Unfortunately, I mowed the lawn again and it caused me great pain around my body and face. So I will be avoiding doing that.....forever if possible...
henkess
how could it make pain around the face and body?
Marina Moon
@henkess I was doing alot of twisting and turning with the lawn mower and that aggravated my back pain which is connected to my face pain. It's all muscle pain. It's a confusing situation sadly, I'm still trying to seek help from doctors :(

Oh sorry to here that hope i gets better :( have you tried paraflex. I have it for spasmer in ear, and muscle pain. It works for me but i need to take it later in the day i get so tired when i take it😆 My spasmer in ear gets better in 4 hours, and my muscle pain to.

Big progress in june 2025 ! Tinnitus stabilizing, hyperacusis softening a bit, shorter spikes :)

Going to visit a doctor today. 2 months since the event, should've gone earlier but maybe if I get some help / medication for this.

Let me know what the doctor told you! Would be nice to know.
I went through your posts and I can relate. One thing struck me though, something I do a lot too: you dwell on and ruminate about what has happened. Yes, you got unlucky 2 months ago, but instead of looking back at something you can't change, you need to leave that behind and look forward. I do this too, but it only makes me depressed.

@Maruashen I try not to ruminate, as you said, it doesn't help. What happened happened. I do try to focus on positive things. It's not always easy...

Doctor sends me to ENT. I know it won't help, but maybe if I get some medication to try out. At least I'd like to do hearing check. And there is a possibility for a therapist.

You're gonna want to go in with a plan to advocate for yourself, whether it's trying something like gabapentin, LDN, or the myriad of other medications that have been discussed here on TT. Otherwise they'll just tell you to get used to it or get white noise generators.

Of course I write this and this week has been terrible... ugh. How much longer can I do this?!

18 months since I got H. Doing much better now. Able to go outside with ear plugs. Watched latest squid games season with decent volume. Still taking Nortriptyline. Although very low dosage 5 mg.

I'm happy to hear you're doing better! May I ask if you've ever tried clomipramine, and if so, what made you switch to nortriptyline? I've never taken either one, and I still can't decide which one I would ask for.
Heal82
I started using Nortriptyline due to a cyst developed inside the roof of my mouth. I developed it 3 months after I developed H. Not sure whether it is in any way related to H. Mouth Dr has advised me to undergo operation which I have resisted until now

Also, just to be clear I have never tried Clomi..

To me, it's not the sound that's worst. It's the physical sensation. Aching ears, burning, headache, fullness, the feeling something is broken.

Why does it feel like my head is between a bench vise? What a terrible feeling. I never really wanted to come back here. I was doing well. One stupid mistake when I just wanted to feel normal again. It's been 2 months already.
Tryn2BHopeful
I couldn't agree more. Same for me back in December.... and every time I feel like I am turning a corner BOOOM back again.

trigeminal nerve irritation?
orenge01
I now have fullness in both ears, dunno whats happening but it feels like I have earplugs in even if I dont have them in, it's some weird persistent sensation. Not sure :/
Tryn2BHopeful
It sucks realizing that no matter how much I want this to be done... it never will be. Tinnitus doesn't take a vacation, and it doesn't care about yours.

I still hold out hope even after 9 years, miracles happen.
Tryn2BHopeful
Hope is all we got I suppose.

@cjbhab - 9 years. God bless you. I'm noise trauma after noise trauma at my home with child. Food kills me. Everything. Man … I'm really scared today.

The moment I start living a bit more, everything goes to hell
Kam75
Same for me, same for nearly all of us here :( Two years ago I started living almost normally, going to bars and clubs, as I felt better. But now I'm living a nightmare... Tinnitus increased because of that. I have sleepless nights every nights. This conditions always reminds you that your life will never be the same. We have to forget our social life forever...
cjbhab
you hit it bang on. I was feeling pretty good in April/May - started doing a few more things - bang head hurts bad and in a long spike now.
Nes
I'm getting weird headaches/tinnitus flare ups in the early morning. It's like my head is pulsating with sound. Hyperacusis has been flaring up too after a noisy day, although it's getting better by day 3
Sodlin
Had a conversation with a coworker that is VERY loud when she talks. I thought my Hyperacusis was better so i just took 2-3 steps back and had the conversation for around 1 hour without earplugs. Was so proud that i managed handle it decent! Today im paying with a pretty huge spike tho :/
