Yes it went back to baseline. I don't think it was Ceftriaxone that caused the spike.

I was 21 days on Ceftriaxone. My tinnitus increased 2 days after I stopped taking it.

Hi Bill, what did you end up doing?

I don't know. I just got Elisa for Lyme. That was positive. Here in Bulgaria, we don't have panels for co-infections. I don't know what to do anymore. I am thinking of just ending it all.

Hi, I stopped taking Ceftin on the 10th day due to developing a severe tinnitus spike and now I have developed neuropathy, tingling in my hand and feet.

I don't believe herbs can help. I have tried herbs for my prostatitis and had 0 success. But also I am sure Ceftin will damage me further. How long did you take Ceftin for?

Very good question. What happened is I had to go and visit a doctor because I also have prostatitis. That's in a different city. My father lives near that city in a very beautiful place in the forest. He called and because he knows I have tinnitus recommend to stay with him as it is very quiet...

Thank you very much for your response. I had a tick bite a month ago. I have positive ELISA IgM. My doctor didn't run any further tests to confirm this result and said I should take Doxycycline or Clarithromycin. I had a bad experience with Doxycycline. I researched Clarithromycin but found it...

Hi @DebInAustralia. I have severe tinnitus and I tested positive for Lyme disease. I had a spike from Doxycycline in the past when I was treating bacterial prostatitis. I take the same antibiotic for my Lyme Disease as you, Ceftin. I am extremely worried that it will make my tinnitus worse...

Can anyone shed some light on how can Quercetin, a natural occurring substance, be ototoxic and otoprotective at the same time? Ototoxic: Natural Compounds as Occult Ototoxins? Ginkgo biloba Flavonoids Moderately Damage Lateral Line Hair Cells Otoprotective: Quercetine attenuates the...

How come more people here haven't tried LDN?

Things don't look good at all.

Yes, I also had a very bad experience with the British Tinnitus Association. They don't do us any good. Spending money on tinnitus management via meditation is not worth it. I don't even know why they still exist. Maybe the poor people donate some money in a hope that they will spend it on...

It is hard, it is very hard. If only I could go back in time and change my mind not to have the MRI. This MRI took away from me my family, my job and my life. Since 27th June 2018 immediately after this shitty MRI the nightmare started for me. I don't know about how bad your tinnitus is, but...

OK, it looks like you haven't done your own research or you don't want to do it. Here is a documented case of MRI causing hearing loss. If it doesn't convince you, I will find you more documented cases. There is no doubt that MRI can cause hearing loss. But if you don't want to believe it...

As said it's not just me. I have spoken to two more people that have it bad from the MRI and all of us were using earplugs. They said they have been exposed to much louder sounds with no issues but the MRI, although not as loud, caused a permanent spike in tinnitus. If you do your research here...

There is definitely something more than noise in the MRI. Before I have done it I was exposed to much louder sounds with no issues. But the MRI was a game changer. It is completely different tinnitus what I have from it. It is always evolving. Everyday sounds make it spike permanently. And I am...

I would never consider Lenire. I don't trust Neuromod. Period. But if someone is helped by their device I am happy for them.

That's not all of it. I have chronic prostatitis now and I am in pain every day. Painkillers make my tinnitus worse. I can't take anything for pain. Then I need to be on a long course of antibiotics, Doxycycline or Ciprofloxacin (both can cause or worsen tinnitus). I can't take any of them. I...

My tinnitus made me totally disabled. I can no longer work. People think I am just crazy.

I had an MRI in 2018. I can honestly say it was one of my biggest regrets in my life. It made my pre-existing tinnitus 100 times worse. What I mean by worse is tinnitus that's so reactive that everyday sounds make it spike permanently. Driving will spike it permanently, talking will spike it...

Shouldn't these people advocate and fight for a cure then? They don't spend all day in bed. They can function. Why don't they do anything? Can you imagine if each person with tinnitus said "enough is enough, I need to do something about it, I need to change something. I don't want to learn to...

Yes, there is, giving you an example of HIV/AIDS. It was all awareness and advocating in the beginning mostly by the HIV positives. If these people had not been that united at the start of the epidemic, I don't think we would today see AIDS as a chronic disease instead of a death sentence. But...

Yes, I know as I am one of them. But how about not that severe cases?

The BTA and the ATA are two organizations that are corrupt and compete useless in finding a cure for tinnitus. They should not exist. Wouldn't it be nice if the money they receive was being directly donated to one of the researchers like professor Josef Rauschecker who is also lacking funding.

The truth is that tinnitus sufferers are waiting for someone to magically come and solve their problem. Tinnitus patients should be more proactive. They should advocate and donate. But you won't see them do that. They come here to complain, cry, and if they get better disappear and don't want...

Penicillins and cephalosporines are the safest for us. But some people report problems even with them. For example, you will find a lot of scary stories here on Tinnitus Talk about Augmentin. It is Amoxicillin with Clavulanic acid. Some people believe that Clavulanic acid is to blame for the...

Thank you for the answer. That's around the corner.

Can someone tell me please when will we know if FX-322 works for tinnitus? Any estimated date?

None of this actually addresses a cure for tinnitus.

Hi did you tinnitus settle a bit?

They should know that tinnitus kills.

I made a video to create awareness but it was not a good one. I need to do another, better one.

I removed it. I agree it would have a bigger impact if I was filming myself.

My Last Letter To All The People With Tinnitus Hi Dear Friends, I am already planing my suicide. One year ago after MRI my tinnitus worsened and since then I have been disabled. One month ago the tinnitus worsened further. I have had tinnitus for 20 years that gradually became unbearable. I...

BTA are useless, period. I personally called them so I know from experience. The answer was "it will get better, goodbye".

Hi Eric, how are you doing? Did your spike settle? I dont know what you think about it but the MRI exposure is a life changer. It is tinnitus worse enemy. My tinnitus follows the same pattern as yours. After MRI 1 year ago I lost count how many spikes I have had from noise that is not loud at...

Hi Blizzed, I am in the same situation. Had a nap three days ago and from then my tinnitus went crazy and did not settle. I was doing very well like you not fully habituated but was getting there. But now I think its all over. I will never get better. I was battling a permanent increase form MRI...

Stay away from this drug. Took just one tablet the lowest possible dose and woke up during the night with very loud ringing in my ears. Not only was my tinnitus loud but it was having a new pattern, something different than my regular tinnitus, something very nasty (the noise was coming from my...

Just updating the post myself as this can help someone reading this thread. I took the mentioned medicine and my tinnitus spiked from the first tablet. It took 3 days for the spike to subside and when it did I had another tablet just to make sure is not a coincident. No it was not the tinnitus...

ENTs have zero tinnitus knowledge, period.

Anyone took this?

This is where the money for research is going. Do you think that this kind of research is useful for someone? https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2019/07/190731102137.htm Summary: A study is the first to examine the relationship between parental mental illness like anxiety and depression in...

Anyone?

Did your Tinnitus and deafness got better?

Yes my tinnitus is very reactive and when I use my hearing aids the tinnitus seems to be trying to be on the top of any sound. Very weird, it is hard to even explain it. I have high frequency hearing loss, it starts at 4 kHz all the way to 8 kHz. The biggest gap is at 8 kHz - 70 dB hearing loss...

I can't say the same thing for me though..

Hearing aids reduce tinnitus by acting like maskers.

Time will tell who is right and who is wrong.

Yes, it's not only me in that situation, there are so many people out there in my shoes. And personally speaking, I no longer have any hope of being helped by Lenire. My tinnitus is very bad. I cannot listen to white noise even at 20 dB.

And they also offered him some maskers.

I don't know where you will fit. But what I can see here is one person has been rejected because of having moderate hearing loss. My hearing is declining at 4 kHz and at 8 kHz is -70 dB. How can I stay positive in this case?

It looks like this Lenire device is for people with mild tinnitus and mild hearing loss. For tinnitus that will improve even without treatment. For all of us with severe tinnitus there is no chance. Thank you Neuromod for the treatment you can't give to the people that need it most. At least...

Same with me. I have high frequency hearing loss at 4-8 kHz and was thinking that hearing aids would help. They do nothing for me except for make the situation worse.

You have had your tinnitus since 2014, did it get a bit better for you?

How many times did your tinnitus increase during this 30 years? How many times did you habituate? You may have had it for long but if it has been stable all the time with no spikes I see no problem.

Don't bother asking, 50% here have it bad and long term. You can ask any of us.

I agree, with mild cases, yes.

This means nothing.
