Mine fluctuates in a similar way to yours, but over time, the range of fluctuation has improved. Lately, even my bad days and weeks aren’t too terrible. I hope yours improves in the same way. One thing that helped me was thinking, “Hey, it’s bad now, but at least it probably won’t stay bad...

When I first developed tinnitus, it changed a lot as well. Some days, it was barely noticeable, while on other days, it sounded like a dental drill going full blast in my ear. It took about a year for mine to become more consistent. It still fluctuates quite a bit, but the range of fluctuation...

I went to a metal concert and developed tinnitus. It took about a year for it to become consistently mild. I still have some louder days, but the tone is much softer than it used to be, and my reaction to it isn’t as severe. During that time, I protected my ears and completely avoided loud...

I'd stay away from music festivals. Read the stories on Tinnitus Talk about them.

This. Time, patience, and protection is the best bet for most people. Mine is very manageable most days after a year of having it.

I used info@cilcare.com as well.

I definitely agree with your comment on the non-invasive device. Something simple and inexpensive like that may help a lot of tinnitus sufferers.

Avoiding loud environments and wearing earplugs when I drove mostly. I tried various supplements but not sure how much of a role they played if they even did anything at all. I think time, patience, and protection have been the biggest factors in my improvement.

My reactivity is intermittent but it was really bad at first. Lately even when there is reactivity it isn't that bad. It look a little less than a year for it to get to where it is now.

Next, we're going to find cave paintings that show cavemen cured tinnitus.

Better late than never I suppose...

The whole "anxiety makes your tinnitus louder" theory really bothers me. My anxiety is usually because my tinnitus is louder. Not the other way around.

Injecting this will most likely only make it regenerate for a short period instead of all the time. I don't think this is a big concern.

I imagine their drug supply for testing is closely monitored and regulated, as you mentioned. If it were discovered that he took one and injected himself, it would likely harm both his team and himself. It could also potentially delay the release of the drug.

I'm very happy to hear you've achieved some improvement. I really hope it continues!
