English is not my first language, and I find it hard to understand what static means? And what is the difference between static and hiss and high frequency sound? Thank you :)

I don't know if you can use this for anything, but I am thinking this: Your manager herself made a comparison between your tinnitus and her occasional migraine. I know that is a stupid comparison, but she mentioned it. You could ask her, how she is doing when she has a migraine. Can she work...

Mine changed from a pure tone to a high frequency sound all of a sudden after one week exactly. Has stayed high frequency since then, almost a year. I have no idea of what it means, when the sound changes so dramatically from one second to the next.

Thank you for your great post. It is very impressive, that you actually can hear the tinnitus a lot of the day, but you don't think about it... if I am understanding you correct? :) So it is still not masked by the tv, but you don't "hear" it anymore? Thanks...

It doesn't seem like many in here have tried it. And I certainly don't think it is possible to get done here in my country (Denmark). Treatments here are free in all hospitals and at ENTs, but they decide what treatment you are 'allowed' to get. I don't think I could go and just ask for it...

I have tried it 4 times, about 1 week apart. It had no effect, unfortunately.

I know several people with noice induced tinnitus, both family and colleagues. Some got it directly from a concert, and some got it from working in a very noisy environment with no protection. Very common back in the days. None of them has had their tinnitus disappear. Not for a single second...

I am nowhere near capable of having any smart thoughts about this subject, but I am very impressed about your knowledge and your ability to explain. Thank you very much for this :)

@Michael1122, do you still take the AD? If yes, what are the longterm plans for tapering off? Or can you continue to take it longterm?

I tried it, it did not help with ringing, and I did not notice any change in memory.

No, I don't enjoy life. But some of you are so much worse than me. My only problem is tinnitus. That doesn't help me though, since I am so sad for you with multiple issues, and I fear I am next in line to have other issues...

This is surprising I think. If they tried to make room for significant improvement, they should go for people with bad word scores... but I guess there is more to it than what I think :):(

I took it all, and no bad effects for me. No good effects either, though.

My colleague with tinnitus had the Pfizer vaccine, and she said it caused no changes in her tinnitus.

Very nice writing, thank you so much. So in theory, for some of us it should be helpful to lower Glutamate and increase GABA. But it is probably not that simple? I will do some searching on that topic... Do you happen to have info on the timeframe of this? Is the window for improving a week...
