Coffee definitely worsened my tinnitus likely by causing inflammation. It took almost a month of not drinking it to get my tinnitus to permanently settle into a state where I don't get spikes above a 5. Other sources of caffeine like soda and tea do not have this same effect. I might get a...

Everyone has tinnitus. Did you think it was the ocean you were hearing in a sea shell? It's just a matter of making the room quiet enough and you'll hear it.

Just read this cause I don't log on here very much. Danny was one of my favorite contributors and he joined around the same time I did. It will not quite be the same here without him.

Sticking your jaw out was the most common way to change your tinnitus. It's most noticeable when my T is low. https://www.tinnitustalk.com/threads/poll-does-your-tinnitus-become-louder-when-you-move-your-jaw-forward.23317/

I've been using them the whole time I've had T. I keep them at a comfortable volume, and don't see how that causes more damage the other louder sounds I regularly experience. I think headphones are fine as long as you keep the volume in moderation.

Had to have a filling today. That was a god awful loud and high pitched scraping noise. No T spike afterwards luckily.

So I got one of those sudden T pauses right at the exact second my 3rd anniversary message was coming in. What are the odds?

Unfortunately this report suggests that the understanding of how tinnitus works is still very incomplete, with a lot of conflicting studies, and the same is true for possible treatments.

I'd actually be more interested to know if there is a rockstar who doesn't have tinnitus. If it's possible someone to spend 30 years next to 125db speakers and still hear pure silence when they go to bed, that's the person you want to study.

Almost every rockstar probably has it weather they are on the list or not.

I have ADHD and T in only one ear that didn't develop until I was in my 30s. I doubt there's a link, but T does make it harder to fucus.

I doubt my Blepharitus and tinnitus are connected. My Blepharitus started many years earlier and is mostly in my left eye while my T is mostly in my right ear.

Sounds excited, but many similar stories have failed to produce anything useful. Also this is just for hearing loss, it doesn't even mention tinnitus. People always assume a cure will fix both, but there's no reason why it has too. Plenty of evidence suggests tinnitus can exist in the brain...

Odd does this it happen when it's windy too? Might be your ear shape forms some sort of a whistle. Maybe vibration also or a combination of both.

Should pin this in the alternative treatments section.
