That is correct. There is no argument. Just calling it like I see it. Nice talking to you...

I did read your posts in the beginning and I really wish I hadn’t. This is like arguing with my 7 year old. You never get anywhere.

Wow. How do you have time for this? It’s obsessive. This is fear mongering at its finest. We need to protect our ears where we see fit, but you would have people believing they will get a permanent spike if they cough. The only evidence you have for anything you say is from here and you take...

I’ve never even interacted with this guy, but after reading his posts I can tell it’s like dealing with a child.

I haven’t tried it. I don’t know the frequencies of my tones. I haven’t been to an audiologist or ENT. (Sorry I’m just now replying. I didn’t realize they moved my post.)

I fell asleep sitting up on the couch (haven’t been sleeping well at night) for 3 hrs with my head tilted forward some. Woke up with neck pain and a headache. I can also now make the tone in my right ear louder by tilting my head to the left. This shit is ridiculous. I actually got some good...

I admire you for not giving up. I loved running, but I can’t anymore. I was diagnosed with plantar fasciitis a few years ago and that forced me to slow it down. The last week of March of this year I got a foot injury in that same foot and it still hasn’t healed. The xray on that foot showed...

I was supposed to get tubes put in when I was 10 because I had ear infections way too often from 4 years old. Doctor said my ear drum was close to rupturing each time I had one and that my tubes were way too narrow for my ears to properly drain. I threw a fit because I was scared, so my parents...

I get fleeting tinnitus in my left ear (it’s the worst) several times a day. It lasts for about a minute and then goes away. I know fleeting tinnitus is normal, but what I don’t understand is the fact that when it goes away one of the tones in my ear disappears and the other two lower in volume...

The tinnitus in my right ear gets louder when I yawn, but it also gets louder when I turn my head to the right. Don’t know what it means (if anything), but I do know that it is annoying.

My sister (whom I haven’t seen or spoken to in about a year) randomly stopped by my house today. Of course, I was a mess and eventually told her about my tinnitus. She said back in December she woke up to excruciating pain in her ear, couldn’t hear, and had ringing and clicking in that ear. She...

They’re too busy living the “habituated” life to care. Do we really think anything will come from these clinical trials? I’d really like to get back to not hating the world at some point.

I really hope they come up with something sooner rather than later. I’m tired of having to give myself pep talks to leave the house. I’m tired of not being able to have fun with my kids. I’m tired of worrying about everything, like going to my son’s graduation...in 8 years (ridiculous I know)...

I guarantee no one here is “jealous” of those that act like living with this is acceptable.

I read all of it and would rather not read it again. I didn’t misunderstand anything. I know myself well enough to know I will never get used to living with this. The only hope I have is a treatment or a cure.
