I have unilateral hyperacusis in my right ear. I woke up with it and tinnitus, floaters, and light sensitivity after a night club outing in February 2023. It was later worsened by an MRI in February 2024 with insufficient hearing protection. While the hyperacusis is unilateral, my T feels more central (brain tinnitus) and is very reactive to sound.

Currently following Dr. Djalilian's migraine prophylaxis protocol for T & H. Considering trying clomipramine or the Silverstein surgery if no improvements this year.
