    Tinnitus in my right ear reduced to only slightly hearing it with my ear plugged. Too bad it wasn’t my left ear that has 4 different tones.

    The local high school band was playing right next to the entrance for a fundraiser. Fml. Figures. All I could do was laugh.

    [Danny Boy Memorial Fund] In Loving Memory of Danny Boy

    This is absolutely heartbreaking. I don’t have any type of social media, but I shared the link with several people via text message and asked that those people donate if possible and share the link themselves.

    @Samantha R I am still taking it, but the doctor didn’t call in my refills for some reason so I’m without that and Prozac from yesterday until Monday. The Nortriptyline didn’t help with sleep either though. I’ve never been able to sleep more than 4 or 5 hours max but since getting tinnitus it’s...

    Insomnia is a bitch. I’m going to need the doctor to give me something a hell of a lot stronger than melatonin. It does nothing.

    Going to Be without Meds for a Few Days — Is This Going to Mess Me Up?

    I was prescribed 20mg Fluoxetine and 25mg Nortriptyline daily a month ago when I was in the hospital. The place they referred me to to see a psychiatrist and start therapy is a mess. To make a long story short...I saw someone for intake at this place and then had an appointment a week later...

    Opinions Anyone?? What Should My Next Move Be?

    That’s where I ran into a problem. I spent 2 days telling the treatment team over and over again that I didn’t want to have an MRI and didn’t want to take any meds because I was afraid of making tinnitus worse. I told them I would be the one that had to live with the consequences. Because I kept...

    Opinions Anyone?? What Should My Next Move Be?

    Good point. I have only been taking them for 3 weeks. Hopefully it’s just an adjustment period.

    Opinions Anyone?? What Should My Next Move Be?

    They didn’t discuss any of that with me. The audiologist just said my hearing loss doesn’t match up with what she normally sees from noise induced loss and that they could give me hearing aids. The ENT didn’t say much of anything. I was really upset about the hearing loss and in a bad state...

    Opinions Anyone?? What Should My Next Move Be?

    I wasn’t questioning the vitamin deficiencies. I’m still taking the supplements they started me on in the hospital. I was questioning the fact that they think the supplements will cure my tinnitus even though I have hearing loss. I don’t agree with them.

    Opinions Anyone?? What Should My Next Move Be?

    I’m not sure of exact frequencies. The musical tone is a higher pitch. The other 2 aren't really. Sometimes the one that sounds like a tornado siren makes me think the siren is actually going off in the distance in my town. I have to go outside to make sure it’s just my ears.
