So sorry to hear that @Jazzer. A big man-hug to you x

This is literally how mine started. I wish I could say it would just disappear... but you've been here before and you know how difficult it can be. On the positive side my has lessened a bit and is less frequent, but it's still there a few days a week as a high pitched hiss. I'm sorry to read...

Thanks @Jazzer . I couldn't agree more with your comments about not dwelling to much on false hopes. Having said that, I got some great advice from members at the outset and so this forum is useful in the 'panic' stage. I realised after about a year it was probably for life. Its nice to know...

Love the idea of this... so here goes... out of the shadows and into the light (y) One with my wife and one with my son - he's got hair :ROFL: Hope you are all having as good a day as possible x

Oh no that is sad. Sorry you couldn't stay with us Allan. Hope you have finally found peace from this demon. RIP @Allan1967 x

@Mosaik I am certain posture, neck tension and jaw tension / alignment play a very significant part in some peoples T and H. Mine personally started after a Dental tooth filling procedure. This has just been published by the British Tinnitus Association and might be of interest ...

Sorry to hear that @foam :( My grandfather had years of stomach problems until he was diagnosed late in life. As some scientists say "we are a reflection of our gut" I guess it makes sense as it all starts with nutrients from food. I am now looking into some healthy gut ideas and cookery.

@UrbanBubblegum Thanks so much for that. I appreciate your help. Just found out my grandfather suffered with HP until treated in his 60's ! Will get that checked out for sure. The Ranitidine reaction is very real and annoying as it does help with its intended purpose...but the ramping-up in...

I have bouts of acid reflux ( related to bread and carbonated drinks - beer :( ) and usually take a H2 blocker - Ranitidine. I have noticed that whenever I take Ranitidine my T becomes much more reactive. The next day is often very bad. It happens consistently and so it must be the Ranitidine...

@Lynny Not sure I can help, or fully put your mind at rest...as my T started after a dental filling.:confused: However, for what its worth...I do think (in my case) it had more to do with trauma to my jaw. This was probably made worse by me being nervous and tense during the procedure. I...

@Allan1967 Running water noises make my tinnitus react like mad. It actually ramps up in volume to compete. Flushing toilets are the worse :banghead:. I can't tolerate White, Brown or Pink noise... They do the same... Even if it's played really quiet and not directly into my ear. I think it's...

@glynis Wishing you all the best and big thank-you for all that you have done for us all of us on this forum. You always approach with kindness and grace. You are indeed a lovely human and I hope life throws you plenty of special moments to come x

You go girl...great to read that something positive has come out of this clusterf*ck of a condition. I wish you a happy future free of tinnitus...or at least thinking about it. X

Hi @Emma33 Im Three years in and I do think it has improved. Or it may be I care less and just have to get on with what life I have. I certainly get more 'better' days now than I did Three years ago. It's far from linear through and I can suddenly get a bad stretch out of seemingly nowhere. It...

@Rb86 Yep... when my wife asked me (a few years ago) what my tinnitus sounded like I said : - A hissing snake, nighttime Cicadas and also like that bubbly hiss when you drink a Coke or carbonated drink. At that point I thought I was going mad. Now I know it's tinnitus and it's here to stay...
