  • @MAH1970 I took Gabapentin before but I don't know. It seems like any medicine or lots of food and caffeine and loud noises make mine worse.
    Hello Sharon, I was noticing after tasing some of your posts my tinnitus seems similar to yours. I have to taken alot of medications over the years that were otoxic, do you take Gabapantin or notice that if you alter seratonin it increases your T?

    @MAH1970 Hello hope ou are doing good. I really don't take any medicine, but I use to take flexerill and I still do if my back is hurting really bad.
    have you tried any medication, in particular medication for pain? (maybe gabapentin, or something else?) if so, what has been your experience like? does it worsen your tinnitus? thanks
    I am getting attached to some of the people on here. Happy but afraid when they will move on.

    This has happened alot since I joined in early 2021. I'm kinda sad but also happy for them that they don't feel the need to visit. Hopefully that's a good sign for them.

    @BrOKeN_1 - agree. I would not wish this thing on my worst enemy. Honest.
    4Grace I always hVe missed you when you weren't on here. Don't know what I would have done without you. You kept me going.

    I always miss you the same. Honest. Happy when you can stay away from here but miss you a lot.
    Just saying hello my friend. I'm not coming in here so much because I'm concentrating on surviving. Best thing about T is that it made me spend more time with God/Jesus. I truly thank T for that but do hope it's in his will to provide my family with a few miracles. God bless. I will keep you in my prayers.
    @4Grace I can't believe you can sleep without any sound therapy.
    4Grace
    I don't know how I do it. It's crazy loud. Sometimes I crave listening to a pod cast but even on number one it stings my ears. I don't know how I am going to live like this.
    @4Grace yes sound therapy is a gift I would go crazy without it.
    4Grace
    @SharonBell - I used sound therapy for 14 - 15 months. Until I could no longer due to Nox. I could not handle one minute without it, now I have no choice to survive without. Crazy that I can sleep without sound therapy and my T is so much worse. I kinda wish i did without when my T was so much better.
    It's ashamed I have to have more noise to sleep so I can't hear my T. I would give anything for silence.

    I know what you mean. For me now it's the debilitation it causes in my life. Can't do anything at all. My mind is going to go. Ability to use sound therapy is a gift.
    My T is very loud but after almost two years I found a way to sleep with it. You are going to be okay. Certain things will be hard but many will be enjoyable. I wish you nothing but the best.
    Hey my friend. Hope you are well.

    @4Grace my head has been louder since I've been working, but I have also been drinking some caffeine too to wake me up. So I do sleep good at night and have for a while now, but I have to have all my noises at night that I listen to. I have been going over to my husbands brother-in-laws after work for a few hours.

    @4Grace because she has been in the hospital and they just found out she had COPD and she is on oxygen now. They can't do her surgery for cancer until she is stronger. Me and her are very close and it's been tough to see her that way. I sure hope you are doing better.
    4Grace
    Sorry to hear. It's nice that you have been able to go to give her some company. I know, for some this life can get hard. For others not so much. Great to hear you are still working a good distraction minus the dog :)
    @4Grace its been louder for a couple days now, still making me crazy, but I'm dealing with it better.
    4Grace
    @SharonBell - that's awesome. Such good news. You deserve it. If you just have the noise I really think this can be done. Honest to God I know it. Don't look at me as an example. I have other issues. I always feel guilty if I in any way hurt someone's confidence. Just the noise can be done no question.
    @4Grace yeah I love the gas, but it's so loud and I can't wear anything on my ears so I'm scared it will mess my hearing up more.
    4Grace
    O ya. No gas and no electric for me. I had to hire someone to cut my grass. I loved it as a pass time.
    4Grace
    @SharonBell - I have been reading books about God. Resting and trying to relax. However it's out of force. No choice. I am extremely delicate at this point. I feel like I'm going to do better but then I get worse. Staying inside to protect all the time is not progress to me.
    SharonBell
    Hello Yes I'm hanging in there. My T is so much worse and now that it's colder even worse. I'm working all the time trying to keep my mind off it. Reading is good and talking to god. I sure wish we could all get better. Yeah I'm sure staying inside sucks. I started doing a lot of things I didn't do before, but I do wear ear plugs even though it makes my T worse.

    @4Grace I was going to my daughter's volleyball games and it was so loud in there that I paid for it afterwards. Im so tired at night now it doesn't take no time to go to sleep, but I still have my sound machine on. I so wish you would catch a break.
    @4Grace he said, a battery powered one isn't as loud. It just scares me though because I don't want to make my hearing worse.
    4Grace
    I have battery powered lawn more and trimmer. Depends on reactivity. It's still a little loud when the cutter spins. I have all my family in the city. I need to move to the country because of T but it will never happen. Too much of my family in the city.
    @4Grace but I can't wear earplugs of headphones so that's not an option. Thinking of getting a battery powered one like my son has.
