Per, Back in 2011 I had really bad jaw popping when I ate or brushed my teeth and my jaw would deviate to the right for me to pop it open. This was ongoing for about six month. In October, I had two root canals on the left side of my mouth and my mouth was open for two hours while I was...

Does anyone have any idea what could cause tinnitus to start in the other ear after two years? I have had T in my right ear from TMJ for almost two years which has seemed to get better but now the left one has started a bit - different sounding and puzzling. Any ideas????

how do u measure the hz of the tone? mine changes from annoying hissing to pulsating when lying down and hearing test last year noted no hearing loss 58

I keep reading how T can be a "foul" up in the nerve structure of our brain. As I have mentioned previously, mine, I believe, was a TMJ/Somatic issue/injury. My T seems to have changed and sometimes it get real low - but, when I blow my nose, I know this sounds crazy, but the T is real loud...

Mahdi, I'm not sure if it isn't in the auditory system, for me, for instance, mine started with a tmj and physical incident I had. I'm not saying there isn't permanent damage in my auditory system but I really don't think it's in my head at all. The sound has changed for the better but it is...

I often wonder if mine, which by the way, sounds so much different than most of you, will ever go away. I believe mine is directly from a major tmj issue and physical activity that did damage. But, I want to believe that it will go away. It did get much better, I think or I habituated as...

1.) What ear(s) is your T in? Right 2.) Would you describe the sound as coming from the ear or do you find it is coming from inside your head (and where in the head- middle, side, back. etc.)? Ear 3.) Is there only one sound, or multiple sounds? Are there different sounds in each ear...

The question for me is: what is a vibration plate fitness machine? how can that cause T? how can they test the Eustachian tube and what is the connection for ET and T?

i wonder if the hyperacusis is caused by the tensor tympani and pallatini being affected. i wonder why they would be affected if the T is noise related - any ideas anyone? i could why mine developed, mine was from TMJ but noise related why??

you guys give me so much hope and to all of us out there whose T didn't start with hearing loss - keep your chin up - for those whose T comes from hearing loss - keep your chin up too

I spoke to Jastreboff personally and he indicated my T would go away didn't say how long it would take but after telling him when and how mine started he seemed pretty optimistic - well it's been a year and a half and it's still here - better but still here - the TMJ is so much better though -...

j1mt: I truly had TMJ, popping clicking pain in the shoulder neck for at least six months, my mouth even deviated to one side after root canal procedures on the left side and my mouth was open for a long time. a week after the root canal i was bent over in my driveway and scrubbing and that...

Louise, I seem to get very frightened and sad when I read posts of us whose T gets worse. I just wish something could be done, but as I read this forum so many people have T from different incidences, different sounds. It gets very confusing and alarming on how they can come up with a...

doesn't anyone believe that it gets better in time - not worse! Click quoted so many people whose T totally went away after maybe two years time. also, what I read is that most people started out with a noise situation but mine started with a TMJ issue with a physical exertion one day. I've...

Mike, didn't you post a little while ago a link on tinnitus sounds. i went to open it and i had to do something else at work. was that you and oh, by the way, sometimes life really throws us a curve ball but your attitude with taking day by day is the only way!!!
