    Tinnitus from Pfizer COVID-19 Vaccine or Ibuprofen

    I'm sorry this happened to you and I hope you recover fully from the ringing. I'd just like to say, taking 2 Ibuprofens causes my tinnitus to spike hugely, it creates a second tone on top of my existing tone that I've had for around 3 years now, and raises the volume of my original tone.

    Is Paxlovid (Ritonavir/Nirmatrelvir) Ototoxic? Can It Make Tinnitus Worse?

    It didn't spike any of the 3 times which was strange, as I had lost my taste and smell for 3 weeks after my second infection with COVID-19. I am certainly, most definitely NOT vaccinated for COVID-19 and never will be.

    Is Paxlovid (Ritonavir/Nirmatrelvir) Ototoxic? Can It Make Tinnitus Worse?

    I've had COVID-19 3x and I didn't take any medication for it. Why risk the possible spike? I'd say don't take it unless 100% necessary in a life or death situation.

    My father thinks he got his tinnitus from Effexor but he was also a heavy smoker and exposed to loud noises so this could have contributed instead or in addition. If you get the Ketamine infusions, could you please let us know how it goes?

    Tinnitus Much Worse During My Period?

    Thanks for the reassurance, just want to say that it was just temporary and did go away once my period started. This has been the second time now. I still have my original ring in the right ear along with a hiss that I developed at a club last Saturday stupidly didn't wear earplugs and got...

    Tinnitus Much Worse During My Period?

    I had tinnitus in my right ear a few years ago. It started in my left ear today! It's been 30 minutes and it has not gone away. Today is the first day of my period. I'm suicidal right now. The left ear was my good ear, now it is louder than my right ear.
