@Alue, what otoscope do you use? The image quality is fantastic.

How are you doing now?

Anyone come forward that has been confirmed yet? If not, the wife and I were both confirmed Wednesday this week. Houston TX

Unfortunately I find myself visiting this website once again after a major setback. I managed to pick up a pretty good routine over the past 3 years, to the point of were the tinnitus no longer bothered me or affected me. This past Monday was my 30th birthday, and I took off work to relax, and...

Has anyone noticed changes in volume, with changes in hyperacusis? For example, as my sensitivity is getting better with time, it seems that my tinnitus is getting louder. My theory is, my tinnitus remains the same level, but since things aren't as loud to me anymore it takes more to mask it...

Just wanted to give some insight to people that have not flown since tinnitus, and might be worried or are flying in the future. I recently flew last week for the first time since my onset 2 years ago, and I was a nervousness wreck. I flew on two jumper planes which are typically noisier than...

Pillow speaker and Mirtazapine " Remeron" saved my life and allowed me to get my sleep schedule normal. I'm slowly getting of Mirtazapine at the moment, as i feel like i don't need it anymore.

When I talked to the doctor on Monday, he said that this was as safety trial or phase 1.5. So im assuming they are not in phase 2 yet. He said 34 or 36 people cant remember what he said would be enrolled, and 24 would receive the drug

Damn that sucks..... I sent in my paperwork yesterday, and mine only dips to 20db at 2k hertz and then back to normal, so i guess I don't have a shot. Anyone know an ENT where we can fake an audiogram??????

I called and spoke to the the receptionist as I'm in Houston TX ,and thats only about a 2 hour drive for me to location. They want me to send my Audiogram. I have a slight 20 db dip a 2k, but most of my hearing loss is over 8K. So I probably wont qualify , but i'm going to send it anyways. Will...

Anyone fly with their custom ear plugs? I'm flying for the first time since tinnitus, and trying to decide what the best solution would be.

Anyone taper off Mirtazapine? I have been taking 15mg for about 10 months and trying to figure out the best approach to take on this.

Hey quick question for you..I have read some of your post about your ear cracking, Mine does the exact same thing. If I touch it, my voice, sudden noises and so on. Have you found anything that has helped you?

I didn't see BR 2049 so I cant really compare it, But it was like all electrical/ horn sounding and if you say "BWARRRRRRM" out loud it did sound pretty similar.

Just wanted to give everyone here a heads up about sound for anyone that want's to see Annihilation. The movie was fairly quiet, no over the top explosions or anything, mostly dialog. However, towards the end of the movie there is a scene that has extremely loud music/sounds that last about...
