I know I wasn't included here but... anything that effects the nervous system per say can effect T. Some more than others. @4Grace seems similar to you in that regard.

@SharonBell - all of it. The more time passes the more foods impact my ears. I cannot have an inch of wine. I'm talking bad spike for days. Actually feels like a permanent worsening at this point. All the foods you mention. We are the same. My ears are like glass.
@SharonBell it does every now and then. Alcohol actually helps me sometimes lower it and calm me down. I ate a bunch of sugar cookies yesterday which I haven't done in months and i woke up to louder buzzing. It's calmed back down now. Coffee doesn't affect me at all and I had given it up for almost 2 years at T onset.
