Unfortunately you are not the only one, my tinnitus seems to me to be the worst in the world, it takes away my pleasure for things i like to do, go out, socialize,travel,etc.It absorbs a lot of energy,it is exasperating.

@Hottopic29 does your T physically hurt? By that I mean, is the frequency or sound of the T so piercing that you feel a sensation of pain? T for me is not just a sound, but something I can often feel, too, unfortunately.

I just keep praying it levels out after 2 months i changed a few times i might try hearing aid i have mild losess i put pieces of cotton balls in my ears a bit to counteract the buzz so i mentally know there something there as the feeling of buzz is awful

That's too bad u are experiencing those sounds but that's good they don't "hurt." Do u have hyperacusis too? @Hottopic29

@Jerad it for first week sometime now i just feel pricks once in awhile... its scary for me the whole situation as its amplified right now takes over my ears and head the sound my hypercacusis i do have only thing i notice is fridge is louder a bit and driving on highway sounds windy and i can hear highway traffic at my house now..

@Hottopic29 what caused the new ear problems? Did u have an acoustic trauma or take a medication that aggravated it? Sounds like u might have some sound sensitivity, but hopefully it's mild. My hyperacusis is pretty severe - LDLs down around 30-40 db for a lot of sounds. Most voices aggravate me even, as they feel painful.

@Jerad i was on predisone 50mg and tested my hearing and started ringing bad .. i started to panic doctor told me get off the prednisone just stop hope its not partially from meds
Hottopic29
I just keep hoping the souds adjust with the hypercaucus maybe my panic set the volume on high in my brain
