    Loud Noises Setting Off Tinnitus

    Hi @Keegan and everyone else. Overall, I am doing better. Have bad days (like today), seeing a cognitive therapist that's helping a bit. It no longer freaks me out as it once did. I'm not on any medication or sound therapy, and I'd say 50% of the time it's not bothering me as much. I have been...

    Loud Noises Setting Off Tinnitus

    Hi Louie My tinnitus up until this year has only been noticeable when quiet and really only when I thought about it. Since the beginning of this year it has got louder and with me all the time. Am having a spike right now after a few days of relative peace :(

    Tamiflu and Tinnitus

    Does Anyone Get Lightheaded and Over Weird Things with Their Tinnitus?

    I think the floaters came because I wasn't eating well. Both times came after a virus. As for the expert. He said neuromonics. The search continues...

    Neuromonics

    I think for the price, it's worth a try. Better than outlaying $5k and not to have it make a difference. Might make it my night time listening. I'm normally in bed by 9 anyway.

    Teacher Troubles

    Gosh, I couldn't imagine what it would be like to have to teach and have T. Well, I can a little bit as I had to go to my son's trampoline party today with a lot of screaming kids, and music played far too loud. I had ear plugs in, but left and sat in the car til they were done. My primary job...

    Taking Benadryl to Sleep

    I took 25 mg. Was asleep by 8, woke at 4am, then nodded off til 6. The night before I only got 5 hours. I woke up and it was say 5/10. The day before I'd give it a 7/10. As I woke, and got my head together, it dropped to a 3/10 where it's remained most of the day. I did some yard work, went for...

    Taking Benadryl to Sleep

    My T was screaming at me all day yesterday. Took some B, knocked me out and T is more bearable today.

    Neuromonics

    I've just been offered Neuromonics. Would I pay the $4k to have my tinnitus removed or quietened? Hell yes. However, it would have to be assured before I'd give up my hard earned.

    It's funny, but I find whenever Donald Trump talks, he sounds exactly like tinnitus :)

    Anyone Have Tinnitus Lower in the Morning? Or Any Idea What Might Be Causing This Biologically?

    Mine generally starts lower in the am, and then by midday is loud, and gets worse from there. Sometimes I wake up and it's really low for a couple of seconds and I think, wow, it's low, and then it goes up. If I could just stop that thought process...

    Is There Anything That Can Be Done from Increased Tinnitus Due to Bad Cold/Bronchitis?

    I recently had the flu and coughed a hell of a lot. Still cough a bit now 3 weeks after. The t has spiked, and I think it is pretty much the same as when I was really sick. From what I've read it can be a few weeks for it to calm down. I do feel pressure in my ears, and I am blowing my nose a...

    Does Anyone Get Lightheaded and Over Weird Things with Their Tinnitus?

    Sometimes I get floaters or feel quite nauseas. It feels like I'm not in my head, my vision gets a little weird, like I can see but I can't see. Experiencing it right now and my T is screaming my head off. I'm beginning to wonder if I have something else wrong, or if it's just because of my...

    Tinnitus and Your Eyes

    Had my first floater in 30 years last week during my flu. Thankful that a migraine didn't follow.
