  • It happened. Severe spike while listening to music on a 5% volume out of 100. I am out of words...I took 10mg prednisone immediately. Idk...
    My smartwatch registered 107 decibels while I was sleeping and they were blowing leaves. I was in earplugs but...oh well. I hate it there :(

    Not to sound dismissive, but I sincerely doubt 107 decibels reached your ears through your window. Hopefully you can rest a little easier. Even if it reached in the 90's, while it's possible to cause pain and aggravate tinnitus, it's unlikely to cause any permanent damage in such a short period of time.
    I was deep in my sleep when they started blowing leaves right by my window. Now my ears ringing 40% louder. I had no time to react! Fuck.
    This day is so fucked up man. That apartment is so fucking bad. I don't want to move there. But I already paid fucking money...

    Is there such thing as a rental tribunal / tenancy rights service in your country? That condition would be considered illegal here and can be reported. Is it seriously legal there to not clean black mold?
    And it's legal for landlords to not clean black mold in my state. But I don't want to get asthma...

    My tinnitus and hyperacusis were caused by black mold. The mold could make your tinnitus much worse depending if it's toxic or not. I would find any way to not move in there, if you can stay with family. Idk man. Or possibly hire someone to clean it. Sorry this is happening tho, mold sucks
    Was seeing my new apt today. Every vent is in black mold. I know they won't clean it. I don't know what to do. I already paid for apt...
    I love living in a small town of 300K people instead of NYC or Chicago. So cool when none of 70 doctors in your city heard of your problems
    My ENT confirmed that no neurologists prescribe nerve pain medications for Nox/TTTS in my state... Why the fuck this happened to me.
    ECP
    Is there a particular med you're interested in trying, and is there a primary care doctor or ENT who can prescribe it for you? My PCP has offered to prescribe me nortriptyline or clomipramine, even though the neurologist she consulted on my behalf told her that there are no recommended meds for my condition.
    Getting fake diagnosis to get the most basic meds is not new for me but neuropathy sounds complicated. Plus, they might force me to do MRI..
    Is getting fake neuropathy diagnosis hard? I've called 9 neurologists in my state. They refuse to treat Nox nerve pain/TTTS. Time for plan B
    Noooo. I got hissing T and diplacusis again in my left ear. It went away 3 times so I pray this time it will do the same thing. God please.
    My hyperacusis is 0.5/10 thanks to COVID and fever. So weird, I can touch plastic bags now without ear protection!
    Due to fever caused by COVID my clicking sounds in ears changed! For the first time in 9 months. Now it's only left ear instead of both. Wow
    Emergency room doc prescribed me azithromycin for COVID. It's worse than placebo... pharmacist is laughing so hard. I can't stand doctors...
    I'm shocked I don't have T/H worsenings from severe COVID. I'm almost died this night. Yet nothing changed. I'm so glad y'all have no idea
    In emergency room rn. Sever COVID diagnosis. Heart rate 250. They can't prescribe anything scheduled so DXM cough syrup and promethazine
    Tomorrow going to urgent care to check for COVID/influenza. I'm interested what is going on with me
    Took off one earplug while talking to my mom and she suddenly started coughing. So painful. I can't believe I have to keep them all time
    By the way. Dextromethorphan (DXM) is not ototoxic fever reliever. In fact, it protects cochlea and auditory nerves according to studies
    Day 3 of fever. I feel much better. And for some reason my T/H are much better than before. I can't believe something good happened to me :)
    I can't believe I got COVID without leaving my house more than 1, maybe twice per month. My mom got sick and we share the kitchen/bathroom:(
    I can't believe all fever medicine is ototoxic. Acetaminophen/paracetamol, ibuprofen, aspirin, dextromethorphan... Boy am I a lucky guy.
    My body temperature rn is 100F(38.1C) and I feel awful. Can't taste anything. Finally got COVID after 4 years. No change in T/H tho..
    cyberspace
    COVID is absolutely everywhere rn, spreading like wildfire
    Took off my headphones for 22 seconds and my mom dropped a vase 5 meters away from me. No comments. I can't live with a live person. Like...

    That's just how it is living with "roommates." It was the same living with a roommate as well as now with family. You can be prepared for your own accidents but it's impossible to be ready for other people's.

    I mainly stay in my bedroom. With my roommate I had a bedroom and an office that was decked out with couch and home theater, and I just stayed in there.

    Whenever I do leave the confines of my own space, it's always with earplugs. Helps keep me safe.
    I am just in shock. Today's day completely killed trust in doctors. I just wanted to get gabapentin and pregabalin, but that's impossible...
    I can't believe I was trusting doctors when I was a kid. It's bizarre how much they don't know. They actually know 2-4% of what I know.Crazy
    My ENT specialist doesn't know what hyperacusis, noxacusis, tonic tensor tympanii syndrome are. I'm shocked.She said I don't have nerve pain

    Yeah I'm not surprised... they are very rare.

    @_Shoto_ Do you have jaw or neck issues?
    I was laying down and suddenly my T has increased in volume by 90%. It NEVER happened to me, but...I hope it's temporary. It's been 10 mins
