    The Workout Thread

    Yeah I wake up with T every morning, take a look at myself in the bathroom mirror with my shirt off and thank god that I still look damn handsome. (jokes) :)

    The Workout Thread

    Hey man, that's a good amount of exercise. You can definitely lift heavy regardless of being skinny although I would temper the weights to a moderate weight. This is advice gleaned from some big injuries by going very big for many years. The yoga is awesome man and I want to start getting back...

    The Workout Thread

    I noticed a few brahs on here like Nick the Swede and Steve were gym rats. I figured we could have a thread where we talk about workouts, cultivating mass, getting swole, and such. Personally, I haven't worked out in several months after I blew out the old L4-L5. I've recently decided to get...

    New Tone in Right Ear

    I've already had hissing in both ears. But I only had a tone in the left. It just strikes me as odd to develop a new tone in my right ear suddenly with no apparent reason, considering that I am under 30, did not have any loud noise exposure, do not take any kind of drugs, and do not have any...

    New Tone in Right Ear

    So I've had a hissing in a both ears and a tone in my left. This started a little less than 3 months ago. Just about 30 minutes ago, I was laying in bed and all of sudden, I have a tone in my right ear as well. It's lower than the tone in my right but it's definitely there along with the...

    Being Young with Tinnitus

    My major concern has less to do with bravery and more to do with not letting fear control you. One can eliminate fear without courage or bravery. For example, one can overcome fear through logic and reason. As you said, if you choose not to do something because you don't want to open yourself...

    Riddle Me This

    Would you describe yourself as a Type A personality OP?

    Being Young with Tinnitus

    Yeah, I don't worry about these kinds of scenarios because they are too far out of one's control. If one were to worry about an airbag going off and increasing one's T. One should be even more concerned with being T-boned and having one's neck and spine irreparably damaged. I think it's...

    Being Young with Tinnitus

    I think Jeffie and Linearb both touch on some very interesting and valid points. I would side with Linearb in being dubious of applying OSHA guidelines as a hard and fast rule for what you can consider a safe volume. As Linearb mentioned, everyone's body is different, so we will all respond...

    MRI After an ENT Appointment

    Agree with the above poster. The chances of an AN are very very unlikely, and even on the extremely off chance that it's present from what I'm aware most cases are benign. On top of that even in most cases where it's not benign for the vast majority, the surgery for removal is quite safe. So...

    Haven't Been Here Very Much But I Do Check In...

    That's awesome Kathi. It's great to hear that you are doing well. At 18 months, I'm sure even brighter days are in your future. :)

    Being Young with Tinnitus

    I don't think it's their genes but rather ours. I have come to accept the fact that I have some little wimpy school girl ears that couldn't hang with everyone elses'. (sigh)

    Anyone Have Any Experience With These Drugs (Streptodornase, Mosapride Citrate)?

    So an ENT gave me some drugs for my ETD several weeks ago. I was hesitant to try them because I didn't want to take drugs and end up with worse T. I figured I try biding my time and seeing if my ETD would subside on its own, but it has remained the same. So my question is, has anyone had...
