This thread is a bit old but, as many of us would, we'll try anything for some relief. The link takes you to a website that basically charges $17 to fill out a questionare. I don't know if they contact you and try to sell you more stuff or not.

My T goes up and down as I push my lower jaw forward, and also as I turn my head all the way to the left or right. Usually I can tell what kind of day it's going to be by how loud it is when I push my jaw out. If it's loud, I'm probably going to have a loud day. I also think that my T is...

We'll see. I've been reading a lot about it the past couple days. I'm not sure if I have ETD or not but I used to be in the water A LOT and had horrible ear infections.

It seems like it's from my jaw but it's all so close to the ear I couldn't say for sure. Another thing I was thinking is that I may need to lay off chewing gum. I chew gum constantly, even have a piece in my mouth at night because my mouth gets dry as hell.

I asked an MD this and he told me it was pretty common but I wanted to ask the group for their advice. My tinnitus is and has always been all over the place. Usually changes in loudness during the day whenever it decides to. Most mornings it's pretty quiet and builds up during the day. Some...

Hi Jason, I've been going to a local chiro that does something like this and I don't think it's helped me. In fact, it may have made it a little worse. He calls is "traction" and basically is just tugging on my head using some sort of strap, doesn't look like this though. I had some progress...

Just wondering if anyone had anything else on this in the couple months since the post. I just heard about SGB on a podcast about PTSD. It really sounds like this might be worth chasing after.

I do that too.... as soon as I wake up, my first thought is whether it is better or worse than yesterday. I used to keep track of it during the day, every few hours I'd write down how loud it was and what kind of tones I was hearing. I think that is probably a mistake. I'm just as lost as...

I hear you... that's exactly where I am. I'm pissed off at everyone and everything. It's a struggle not to take it out on someone. Temper is short. Don't know how I'm going to sleep tonight.

That sucks. Same thing just happened to me. I had a couple near silent weeks and night before last I woke up and it was screaming. Very disappointing. I just keep telling myself it will settle down again, just stay strong.

I'll throw my 2 cents in on these. I saw them initially in a vending machine in London Heathrow mid 11/2018 and, being fairly new to tinnitus I was at the point, I did some research on them. I didn't buy them there because they were well over $300USD, but just this weekend I noticed them at a...

Hello to all... It's been a bit since I posted and I just wanted to share my experience with cervical spine chiropractic therapy / treatment, whatever you wanna call it. I've had tinnitus for a little over a year, i guess most of you know what that first year is like. If you haven't made it...

Hi All, I'm going to be visiting London for about a week and was poking around on the internet and was wondering if anyone had any experience with the Tinnitus Clinic on Harley Street. I live on the Island of Guam and my treatment options are quite limited here. I've had all the tests and...

Don't take it too hard. Mine is all over the place and I've had it for about 7 months. I'll have a few to several good days and then there's days like today, when I just get by. I keep tract of my good days and bad days to try to establish a pattern or identify a trigger but I'm not having any...

Mine does that all the time too. Happening right now in fact. A few days of near quiet and then blam-o, a day or two of loudness. Stress really spikes mine too. I also wonder if it's just going to stay loud.. but so far it hasn't. Mine is all over the place I guess. I'm just slightly over my...
