    Tinnitus Starting Randomly and Still Going Strong

    Hi! Welcome. Your story sounds very similar to mine. I randomly woke up with tinnitus about 2 months ago. I only hear my tinnitus at night and I can pretty much block it out if I’m busy or outside with other noises. My tinnitus is unknown as well, however, my ENT told me he is positive as well...

    Tinnitus Began Two Days After a Dental Procedure: I Feel Hopeless and Need Help!

    Hi! I’m okay. I still have tinnitus but it seems like it’s slowly fading or maybe it’s just in my head. It’s really hard to hear it when I’m around other noises but I know it’s still there.

    Currently Hearing Three Tinnitus Noises — Anyone Else Hear More Than One?

    I’m sorry as well! I hate this so much. It’s like if life hates me. I already have tinnitus so why get me more sick. This is the second time I get sick while having tinnitus. 2 weeks ago I had a cold and it went away and now it’s back.

    Here I Am — Tinnitus of Unknown Origin

    I mean when I move my jaw the ringing tends to change the rhythm of the noise as I move it but it does not stop it. For example if I open my mouth the ringing becomes louder. I can’t remember exactly what I did the day before I got tinnitus but by the looks of my pictures that I took I was home...

    If You Have Tinnitus Does That Mean That Your Hair Cells in the Middle Part of the Ear Are Dead?

    I’m just curious if that is always the case. Can you have tinnitus without any hair cells in the middle part of the ear being dead? And what doctor can see if your hair cells are dead?

    Can Abnormal Iron Cause Tinnitus?

    Yeah I have no clear cause of my tinnitus. Tomorrow I have more appointments for another testing to see what my doctors can find. But so far, my doctors have no clue what triggered my tinnitus.

    Can Abnormal Iron Cause Tinnitus?

    I really hope that overtime it will stop. I just want to find my cause because not even my doctors know what caused my tinnitus. We have done so much trying to find the cause. I just randomly woke up with it.

    Can Abnormal Iron Cause Tinnitus?

    If it is my high iron levels then maybe there is a chance that it can go away. I just want to know how it's going to feel when tinnitus disappears. Does it like slowly fade away or does it just randomly stop.

    I Only Hear My Tinnitus in Quiet Places — Does This Mean Anything?

    I can't hear it when I am outside, however, sometimes I can hear it low when I am watching TV but its low to the point where I forget about it. Like there is time that I feel like I hear silence but then I tend to look for the noise and then its like "YUP I'M STILL HERE." The worse is when I am...
