    Some mornings I wake up to the sound of the fan I use at night in my left ear. if I use an earplug, I still here the fan running in my head.

    Had an MRI on my brain and my ear canals looking for tumors which could be causing my tinnitus, none found. Mysterious tinnitus, what a trip

    I had an MRI on my brain looking 4 tumors causing my terrible tinnitus, found none. Check my ear canal, none.

    I went and watched the Minnesota Twins at Target Field in Minneapolis, wore 3m ear plugs and I have to say, they worked pretty darn good.YAY

    I've tried most of the OTC Tinnitus meds which turned out to be junk scam money makers. Neuromodulation sounds relieve my Tinnitus.

    Lenire turned out to be just another placebo that turned bad for most people who tried it. Some found relief, many did not.

    Hyperacusis tinnitus is what bothers me the most. Most noises drive me away from the origin of that sound cuz it makes me crazy anxious.
    TomK
    I have no relationships because tinnitus wants it that way. No friends, no girlfriends, no visits to see my grandkids, nothing but lonliness

    There are no cures or medication for Tinnitus. Don't spend your $ on the crap stores or the TV sells! Low dose benzos take the edge off.

    Every ENT doctor I've seen is at a loss with tinnitus, do not see them unless you need a hearing test. T is a journey they know little about
    TomK
    ENT doctors do not know the first thing about tinnitus excet that it is phantom noises in people's ears after that it's play DR for the loot

    I hear loud hissing even without hearing in my left ear. TINNITUS is a brain disease!

    Not a disease but the brain definitely plays a major role. I only have tinnitus in my left ear, the one that went through the acoustic trauma. However, if I put my right ear on a pillow at night I hear it only in my left ear and not my right.

    The insanity.

    I only woke up three times because of the roaring in my left ear, leaving me with 3 hours of sleep total. I'm ready for the day. Lol.
    SarahMLFlemmer
    I'm not. So tired of facing this day after day after day after day.
    SarahMLFlemmer
    I see you were a drug and alcohol counselor and ran some SLEs (sober living environments) back in your day! My husband and I both are "in recovery." God bless your work!
    TomK
    I am sober except for the fact that I take a 1mg Ativan benzodiazepine for some sleep, about 3 hours worth.
    It's prescribed, I follow the script, I am not abusing benzo's.

    Congrats on your sobriety!

    Oh, how I get annoyed when people tell me that they had a relaxing weekend. I'm like yeah must be nice. I spend my days off stressed at home lol
    TomK
    Hearing aids help with amplification of noise around you, so the T is not as noticeable. Masking sounds make it worse for me.
    TomK
    I will be in the woods today painting scenery, I hope it's quiet. What a joke that is!!! Hahahahaha!
    TomK
    What doctors out there in T land say they are experts in Tinnitus, ENT. They can't do jack except make $177 from your visit. Liars.

    Well today is another day of living in hell and being one crabby sob until I get some sleep. The Trump Disease rules.
