Hi there. I don't think there is a link, unless IC meds contributed to causing T. :(

My IC is okay. Still there...

Maybe not! I’ve been told the kidneys control the ear but who knows. I’ve just never come across anyone with IC but lots on here

Life has been a constant struggle over the last 8 months but still trying to keep my head up. Hoping for a better future.

My hospital stay to have my second baby in April has significantly worsened things

@Zigs I am terribly sorry to hear that. What caused your T?

@SarahMLFlemmer thank you, and likewise. It originally started years ago after an ear infection and then worsened in 2019 after a night out

magneisum and fish oil may help...

I can't really wear them for long either, it's awful.

Wow. I'm sorry to hear that. I bet you are such a blessing to so many.

@SarahMLFlemmer I feel the same way. I was a lot better and then it’s been really bad the last 2 or 3 weeks. I have missed you too.

This is the most reliable post I've ever seen on this forum. Virtual hugs!

Honestly, it's the only hope we have (if all else here fails, which is almost inevitable in most ways)! Revelation 21:4 Read it and hold onto it with every ounce of your being. I am rooting for you and your kind words touched my heart more than you'll ever know. ❤️

It does, I agree. I’ll keep you in my prayers. Anxiety unfortunately can be overwhelming, I’m there now. I just hope you get better. I don’t know how old you are but life doesn’t get much easier. Having said that, hang on to good moments as tight as you can and try to reminisce on those moments when down. This will pass, but it may take time.

@Eloy Resendez Jr thank you for sharing! I'm 36. Life don't get easier but I hang onto hope. ❤️ The Bible talks about glorified bodies one day... I can't wait!

Amen to that @SarahMLFlemmer! I look forward to that day of glory myself. You’re absolutely right, hang on to hope. Stay strong and trust in God!

Struggling more than ever 16 months in. Unfortunately I am worsening daily

Heaven is real. It’s really real. What a beautiful thing to know for sure. A

@Juliane still? ;(

@BB23 yeah, I think so but it's a pretty mild case. It did affect my eyes.

My eyes want to cross now though, so that's cool. =/

That's really good to hear! If the day is going fast your definitely having a good day.

Good luck with your new job.

Distraction helps.

You are amazing @SharonBell. ❤️ How's the job going?

Hi @SharonBell some days are better than others but I got me some chickens for therapy, ha ha. Built a coop and run and everything!

How are you @SharonBell?

Love you. ❤️

Hanging in there one day at a time.

I'm doing the same. You are not alone. ❤️

I appreciate that. ❤️

Both.

@SarahMLFlemmer nothing found I take it?

@MiaVIL nope. =|

We went about an hour away to a place with snow. Stayed in my friends cabin with the kids. It was so much fun!

@SarahMLFlemmer - you made it. Beautiful words. What a difference. God bless you. You deserve it. ❤️ So, so happy to see you doing better.

♥️

❤️

Yay ❤️

@SharonBell the noise just gets exhausting. It's hard to be going, going, going 24/7.

Amen.

Oh believe me I know the 24/7 noise. I still havnt been able to go back to work because of it.

@SarahMLFlemmer Im doing ok. My T has been a little quieter the last 3 days or like you said, maybe Im dealing with it better. Before when it was warmer and then turned cold it got worse. It has gotten colder but it hasn’t got worse and I was home all weekend so I didn’t drive. The road noise and going in stores make mine worse, but today driving and went to a couple stores and it didn’t get to loud.

So aim going to pray and keep my fingers crossed.

@SharonBell praying with you!

I've been okay, actually. But today I am just laying around the house and it is very hard.

@SarahMLFlemmer well that’s good. You said you are just laying around that’s good isn’t it if Your T is better.

@SharonBell my T probably really isn't any better, just my reaction to it. I am dealing better, but some days are still hard. Just gotta stay distracted. =|

@4Grace you got one? =P

A break? I have been looking for one for a year. Can’t seem to find.

@4Grace don't I know it. Keep hangin' on.

OK is progress indeed! Don't doubt it if you are doing okay @SarahMLFlemmer Embrace it, and think of it as one step closer to habituation. Life with t can still be a normal and giving life - for most.

That's nice to read :) I hope we can all say that some time. Myself, i'm not searching for doing great & feeling amazing, just to feel okay & feeling comfort in myself & wellbeing is what it's about.. taking it easy

I know you will heal from this. Just takes a while.

The comments on that video are priceless

It help could a percentage of people, could include you. See this thread: https://www.tinnitustalk.com/threads/new-university-of-michigan-tinnitus-discovery-%E2%80%94-signal-timing.2805/page-193
