I just want to update on how I'm doing, and hopefully give some hope to anyone who is feeling hopeless and depressed about the sound in their ears...I've been meaning to create this thread for a little while now, so here it is. First off, I'm doing much much better now than during my first...

Okay, so I've noticed this happening for a while and now I'm curious if anyone else has experienced something like this. During the day, my tinnitus might be mostly one highpitched tone, but it seems like once I go to bed and lie down on my side (I usually sleep on my right side, which is also...

That sounds pretty similar to me lately. Sometimes mine will be almost absent at the start of the day, so it sucks when it starts to fluctuate as the day goes by.

I can't provide any feedback about pulsatile tinnitus, but my T also seems to temporarily increase in volume after taking a shower. I wonder why that happens. I stepped out of the shower just a short while ago and I'm experiencing it again right now, it's back to the original loudness of when my...

Every time I feel like I'm making progress or getting used to it, it does something to take that away from me. According to my doctor I have a middle ear infection and fluid in both my ears which is probably causing my tinnitus , so it should go away gradually, but when it does this and comes...

I just woke up again 10 minutes ago. I really don't want to go back to the sporadic-2-hour-bursts of sleep phase again. It does seem like the tinnitus has calmed down a bit, although the air conditioner is still on right now so it could just be masking it. prior to this i was getting on normally...

Today I was almost tinnitus free. I felt normal again. I was experiencing silence. Now since i started to take this zyrtec earlier tonight I'm honestly.....feeling suicidal again....sorry I'm so negative all the time but I'm about to go insane. I cannot sleep tonight. I feel like I'm back to...

The crickety sounds and electric frequency that keep firing off randomly in my ears is just really testing me right now. I can't help but stay afraid it's not gonna go away, so I had another nervous emotional evening today after feeling somewhat decent earlier. It's turned me into a trainwreck...

Just posting again as I have somewhat good news, I guess. Today I went to the doctor and they said I have fluid in both my ears now, so they gave me some nasal spray and antibiotics, which I took....It sounds gross, but i did feel liquid drain down in my throat and then I noticed a reduction in...

Thanks, but I have to admit that yesterday was very rough for me...I was actually having some suicidal feelings and kept crying. I feel so alone and like this stupid thing has really broken me. I just feel crushed and I'm definitely not hopeful it will go away again anymore.

I hope you're right about it going away soon. I keep having these short periods of total silence like it's trying to go away, but then it comes back, and the loudness and tone of it has been frequently changing. It also seems like my posture influences it oddly. I hate how quickly I can go from...

Here is another update on my tinnitus today: The cricket noises have almost ceased and my left ear is quiet right now (however it will not surprise me if things fluctuate today). The electrical frequency sound is a little louder than yesterday in my right ear, but I have to say its really not...

Thank you. I wish I could say I was feeling so optimistic right now...It's proven hard for me to stay as positive as others are. I kind of keep beating myself up about attending that stupid concert, I feel like if I'd never gone there, then none of these problems would be occurring for me right...

Hello everyone, here's my update: Well, last night as I was falling asleep my ears had a strange sensation. I'm not sure how to describe it, it felt like some kind of pressure or something inside them and after that the electrical frequency sound I described earlier pretty much vanished from...

Hi, it's me again already. Well, my tinnitus shifted to my left ear for some reason. I'll try not to rapidly update here everytime something happens since I don't wanna be annoying, haha, I guess it's just comforting to get more informed/experienced opinions and answers is all...but anyway I...
