Sadly, 18 months in since tinnitus escalation and not improving and picked up more problems, so I now have: variable tinnitus, hearing loss, insomnia, depression, anxiety, TTTS/MEM, & hyperacusis. No sign of recovery, yet. Still hoping.
I didn't think I'd ever see improvement, but I've actually gotten noticeably better this summer. The T is less variable and not as loud. The H is less painful.
Wow! So nice to see people coming along! @Mo8409 I felt that same way for months, not sure. I think if things weren't improving you'd know THAT for sure.
@SarahMLFlemmer Yeah, I find it hard to accept too. I find it feels a bit like betraying the dream of hearing silence again. There is no doubt that any degree of habituation helps though.
@Joe Cuber That's exactly how it is for me. More better days, and more quieter days. I am 7 months off of my last pill, which is what gave me tinnitus.
