My hearing in my left ear is going bad by the day. So is my right I am sure but not as noticeable. The tinnitus has been increasing by the day as well. Along with acid reflux which I have never noticed before. I have been doing a lot of reading and learned that acid reflux can cause hearing...

Where is this found in Windows?

Who hasn't thought of suicide that has tinnitus so bad that they are willing to take brain altering meds to get by?

I am in the same boat. Had occasional problems sleeping. I would take Ambian and t would fix me right up. But now my tin is so loud it is ineffective. Doc put me on 1 mg ox Xenex for stress. That got me some sleep but last night did not work at all. Wrled at first but my tin got...

Yes severe hearing loss. My own fault for being so stupid for so many years and not caring for my hearing better. I cared more about having fun than my hearing and I will keep it at that. It took getting this bad to be my wake up call. But now it has become unmanageable. I wish I could...

Two things that keep me going for now. 1. Things will be better tomorrow. I have had tinnitus for years. But it was always manageable. Literally overnight things changed. I was in very good shape. Just go finished with a bicycle tour of Mt Hood Oregon. Very proud of myself that I...

I was also diagnosed with Meniere's. Yes I do have periodic bouts of dizziness if I get up too fast from a prone position. But I also have mild afib and some circulation issues. I know I am in trouble with my afib, when I am dizzy just from sitting up. I also have problems when I...

Hyperacusis seems to be abating a bit, or maybe I am just getting used to it because it is new to me.

Never caused a spike for me before though it was uncomfortable during the cleaning. But far less uncomfortable than that constant scraping the old fashioned way. I need to go this afternoon. :( I will ask for the old fashioned way due to my spike.

This does not sound good. I WILL NOT increase any more dosage. If I do that I will never get off. I am regretting starting this in the first place. I was sleeping better with my Ambien but the doc convinced me to try Xanax to see if it would help with stress. I thought I would try it...

Yes... I have had brief ones but they might just last the day. Never one this long.

Yes I will have a trial period. The hyperacusis makes me concerned that the hearing aides will make it worse.

I am now wondering if acid reflux is the cause of my recent spike! And sound sensitivity! Here is my recent history. I went to an ENT with a complaint of fullness in the left ear and my spike in tinnitus. I also complained of a drainage down my throat with at at least SEEMED to me as a...

My tinnitus is at a very high frequency and is very loud. Something I don't get with your brain is trying to replace the sound theory... If I had to hear that tone at anytime even with great hearing, it would drive me insane. In fact I used to work as a tech in a television repair shop...

Not yet. Another week or so till they get here.
