  • Got blasted by a sound bar at Best Buy. Walked away immediately. Ears feel full now. Do I just take a triple dose of NAC now or what?

    If you have been taking NAC, you are in a good shape. The spike (if any) will most likely be temporary. Having said that, of course learn from your mistakes and attempt to not give any more spikes to yourself.

    I haven't been very consistent with the NAC lately, and hadn't taken any yesterday until after being exposed to the loud sound bar.
    Been wearing an earplug in my bad ear, and the ringing settled down a bit. Ran the faucet and it kicked up again, even with the earplug in.

    Try wearing earplugs in both ears...
    For about 30 seconds, my tonal T went away and I just heard static. It was so soothing, like a soft white noise machine.
    Bill Bauer
    It might take months or even years, but hopefully eventually you will be hearing soft static.

    @Bill Bauer I really hope so. I've only really been experiencing things getting worse and worse so far. I've been trying to avoid loud sounds. Anything over 70dba I've been putting in ear plugs.
    My T in my right ear keeps mimicking the sound of my computer's fan. When I go into another room it's like my computer is following me.

    I've experienced this after a hyperacusis setback. It mostly receded after I rested my ears for a couple weeks, so I suggest you do the same.

    Very interesting. I've been taking moments of rest, and then some sound enrichment since I'm concerned of giving myself hyperacusis. If I do have it, it is very mild. I have noticed that I needed to cut some of the high frequencies on my stereo when listening to music though.
