    Just A Bit of an Update

    Yesterday I posted that things were rather terrible. Last night, I switched from chewing nicotine gum to lozenges, so that I'm not masticating so much during the day. I also asked my girlfriend to beat the snot out of my jaw muscles for a while. She did. It seems to have helped a bit. It's not...

    Matt from What Seems Like Hell

    @dan Haha. Well, I certainly wasn't expecting any sort of tinnitus monster to have attached itself to my brain. That seems a little nonsensical. I was, however, concerned about things like acoustic neuroma or any sort of other growth that may affect the inner ear. @LadyDi Thanks. I am slowly...

    Some Success with Chiro and Back to Square One

    I'm sorry to hear that things are this bad. I can't imagine what it's like to have a tinnitus that sounds that bad. I just started going to a chiro myself with some improvements. But I let the guy crack my neck. I didn't know about the risks involved before I did it. Is that why you didn't let...

    Can't Figure Out What It's From. Losing Sanity.

    I'm losing my mind. I have no idea what this tinnitus is from, and it's terrifying to think that my ENT was wrong. So very wrong. I'm going to try and get in to see a neurologist, but maybe the people here can help me to narrow down what my tinnitus is from. A year or so ago, I got...
