I had the same on different occasions. Classical concert still in my ears after a car ride, ambulance sound. It always took at most a few hours and then faded away and left me with my normal T. Still quite bothersome. This seems also to be a very rare condition. But I think I have also read from...

I'm not sure but I wonder if it was orthostatic hypotension. Hopefully, whatever it is, the doctor will figure it out. If he can't maybe go to another doctor.

...newspaper pages) Dishes and silverware clanking together Plastic (bottles, food containers, etc.) ...in addition to the ever-popular motorcycles, power tools, and police and ambulance sirens. Out of curiosity, are these considered high-, mid-, or low-range frequencies? Thanks! Mystery Reader

How do you suggest I put this to a doctor who is likely to say "wait and see what happens"? Yes, thank you for asking.

Hey guys I am 15 and Last week I was in the shops and I passed out with really bad cheast pain and the ambulance came after that I was very stressed and I caught a cold and my t has gottan louder will it go back to normal after the cold goes away?

It is relevant to the company and their future. That is the only reason why I brought it back up. We all want the trials to keep going and this could derail that. Hopefully it turns out to be nothing. The results from the next trial is still a ways out. This thread would go dead if we didn't...

Yeah, those are all fishing expeditions/ambulance chasers. Not one of those firms has filed an actual suit, they’re “investigating” by trying to draw in heavy individual investors that are now holding the bag after the stock ranked. Rarely anything comes of these firms.

...spasms causing them to 'flutter ' - that's an answer I got from a hearing specialist for mine as my own H came from standing next to an ambulance siren go off.. . Funny, Sebastians I know EXACTLY what you mean with keys and for me it was even metallic zips off women's handbags and people's...

I almost sent them an email telling them I'd rather lose my money with FREQ than sell my soul to a bunch of evil lawyers. I stopped myself, but maybe I'll do it today.

Thanks all. I'm in a&e right now. Husband called an ambulance after I I had the biggest shaking attack for over an hour. I don't know if it's panic attack or the sleeping tablets but I'm a pretty bad state at the minute. I really hope I can build the strength that u good people have

...of social distancing they only let a few customers into store at a time. A car with a super loud engine drove by me at one store and an ambulance with police car sirens following drove by me at the other!! I was only in line a few min. for each! I managed to get foam plugs in for the passing...

Just close your ears with your fingers?

...they were made with geocities from the 90s. http://hyperphysics.phy-astr.gsu.edu/hbase/acoustic/invsqs.html It doesn't surprise me that ambulance sirens are this loud. You need to be able to hear if it's coming from far away. I wonder what is the prevalence of hearing loss/tinnitus is...

...my baseline but it did. You were Inside, I bet that most of the sound was deflected with the walls and window frame of your home plus the ambulance was most likely moving 50 MPH. You had very little if any direct sound exposure. I would not worry about it, try and forget about it. Lots of...

...loud things like vacuuming, so my good ear gets protected too. When I'm out and about and need to cover my ear from a siren or something like that, I only protect my bad ear, unless it's ridicuously loud, like an ambulance going by right next to me, then I protect my good ear as well as my...

Something like that might cause a temporary spike, but it shouldn't cause a permanent spike. Don't worry.

Some people can get a spike from a loud fart, or would that be the anxiety over the fart? Farts can be surprisingly loud if you let it rip as hard as you can. It's basically as loud as a medium trumpet note.

...I’ve considered it. The thing is, I live in a really objectively loud city. There’s so much loud impulse noise (cars constantly honking, ambulance, fire trucks passing, etc) that I have to put up with every time I head out. I might be able to tolerate these sounds (to an extent), but I see no...

Yeah, to be fair though...I do not whine over the constant low flying planes, train horns, motorcycles, fire alarms, ambulance sirens that stress out many users here. Not needing TT for 4-5 months. But that is the nature of the condition. What can you truly say to a person to assuage their...

...I try to avoid riding my bicycle near traffic, and always wear foam earplugs... You still will be able to hear loud sound through the earplugs and you ears will have some protection. Anyway, it's always best not to be close to noise. Those incidents (ambulance, loud motorbikes etc) happen...

I dont go to events or cinema, but dont wear earplugs when outside, so ambulance passes me and motorcyles and cause more cochlea damage.

no, no, no, the whole point is that she's not superhuman, and that thinking she is, is directly counterproductive.

I covered my ears twice when an ambulance passed me two times, also covered them when I had the motorcycles very close to me. I am happy not going to concerts and clubs (never liked them), it is this fear of fire alarms, ambulance sirens, car sirens, unexpected fireworks, car muffler...

Were your issues with laptop speakers always a delayed onset? And was it only moderate volume that triggered it or just speakers in general at any volume?

...to reoccur. I have tried to come off this drug and I didn’t experience any withdrawal effects; however my tinnitus is as loud as having an ambulance alarm full on next to my bed and I need Mirtazapine to be able to sleep some. Lucky those who can fall asleep with just Melatonin or...

yep know how you feel.. I keep the car windows shut tight.. Since a motor bike roared past me last summer and hurt my ear .. I dive into the nearest shop when i hear Police or Ambulance coming.. Or if i cant do that i plug my ears with fingers.. Ya have to be on your guard all the time.. Micky

Normal everyday sounds you should be ok. I plug my ears if a motorbike roars past or an ambulance etc.

Protect your ears, but don't beat Yourself up over sirens. When I walk in he city, I always plug my ears with my fingers if an ambulance goes by. It's really doubtful that you sustained any significant hearing loss from a siren going by. I suffer like you, this condition plays with your...

I am doing something similar. Plus taking away everything that messes with my central nervous system like alcohol, SSRI, coffee and Zopiclone (type of benzo). Also changed my diet quite drastically. I hope my body can adjust and start the healing process. I can also recommend hard stretches...

...of doing full auditory rest for a year or two like him and wearing musician custom-made earplugs with -25 dB attenuation when going in the streets to avoid setbacks from car honks, ambulance siren, motorbikes. And obviously gradually increase sound exposure at home and outside. Thanks, Gregg

Never had any hearing loss, slight muffled sound for maybe a few days or so. Mostly just fullness and pain.

...tinnitus will improve in time, I'm still hoping that it will. It's very scary to think that I could get hurt this way over just some minor ambulance siren going off for a couple of seconds even with all the protection that I had, I would have never thought that would be impossible. I live in...

sadly to a degree yes however you may make a close to full recovery. Give your ears a rest

Thanks @Richard zurowski I hope one day I'll get to a point where I don't shriek when I hear a loud ambulance/motorcycle/lawn mower. I'm not the person who I used to be before T, but I'm getting there. Even with my ringing low, I'm still so cautious because of the "what ifs!" Love your...

...exactly like Tegretol, so I likely took one approx 6 months ago, at 7 pm and that did give me a sharp drop in blood pressure. I called an ambulance, they put an IV and opened it wide open. I got an ambulance ride to the hospital. My brain was in a fog for a while (like a few months), and the...

...gum, earplanes, earplugs, and noise cancelling headphones. If I had a cold I'd use a decongestant. Colds make T spike, and your ears were sensitive when the ambulance went by. I highly recommend the noise cancelling headphones.You will not hear the loud jet engines, and your ears would have a...

Yes, but when you live in a capital you never know when there'll be noise like ambulance sirens, car alarms, house alarms, screeming children, subways, railways, road work etc. It is all damaging to the hearing.

I just went through something similar with a fire alarm. Recommend as a precaution you follow this: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC1950331/

In this case no. An accidental gunshot will cause tinnitus in healthy individuals. Having unprotected ears in an enclosed space during a gunshot is not comparable to everyday loud noises that will spike us such as an ambulance, motorcycle, or fire alarm.

...any problems. It's a short term burst which technically wouldn't damage you even if you hadn't. Although try telling me that when I get ambulance sirens right next to me... These things are way louder than they need to be, I've had spikes from them but never felt like any permanent damage...

...than you expected, but I seriously doubt that it was damagingly loud. With your earplugs, muffs, and windows rolled up you probably had at least 35db reduction, and ambulance sirens are at most 130db. So worst case scenario it was 95db for a couple seconds, but it was likely much less than...

Yeah, similar experiences. I live near a hospital too.

I was walking my dog and a siren from an ambulance went past me. I had avoided that situation for a long time. I didn't have time to insert my ear plugs but I plugged my ears with my fingers. I don't know if that helps much. Does it? How effective is doing that? I guess I should bring my...

I really hope things turn around for you, Pete. I know how insanely horrible and depressed you must feel right now, but please give yourself more time to process everything that is happening to you. I remember when I had my MRI and it felt like I was going through a form of PTSD. It nearly...

...hard for me to articulate, but it's not wildly fluctuating like last year. Sitting in meetings with essentially the undulating sound of an ambulance was very tough to cope with. It's still there though. I think the drug had some effect, but not sure. They said it would slowly improve mood...

is Loud Noise police sirens, ambulance sirens, motorcycle, busy road?

...new traumas by exposing yourself to some of these too loud noise exposure. Breaks on a bus can be loud and aggravate hyperacusis - and ambulance sirens and motorcycles are way TOO loud for your compromised ears right now. Wear ear plugs. Do not just sit and endure sounds that cause pain to...

You really have bad reactions to trobalt!? I've not had that effect at all, not even at higher dose

Sooner or later something will happen. A fire alarm, an ambulance siren, kids playing with fireworks etc .... Either you use earbuds regularly or you risk your T getting worse because of bad luck.

...loud enough to be quite disturbed by the noise... But per example, if you are at your home, you can easily have your earmuffs close to you all the time ! And once you hear ambulance and firetrucks you can put them... And when you outside, you can put some earplugs on if the noise is too...

Well, I use to play in bands (the classic case) which gave me my first ear injury, but I think it was the ambulance that pushed me over the edge. Since then I've had sound sensitivity and I tend to watch roads for ambulances, But I try do it with an element of calm and most of the time it's ok...

I read somewhere that bringing down your hyperacusis can solve your reactive tinnitus or lessen it. I've got ambulance noises triggered from sound outside. My hyperacusis is not so strong, I can walk in a big city with loud trucks and so, but some noises hurt like knife and forks or a horn. Or a...

I can relate so much to this. That’s basically my story as well. Only that it was an ambulance with sirens passing very close to me. My spike is only 3 days old but over the years I have a fairly good idea about when it‘s just a spike that makes me hear my tinnitus more and when it is an actual...

Based on my personal experience, spikes triggered by loud noise while wearing ear plugs go back down again. (Ear plugs are amazing for us with tinnitus. I never leave my home without them.)

...Jan 15-caloric test Jan 17-massive spike from fire alarm Jan 20-three helicopters by house Jan 22-walked next to a busy street Jan 24-ambulance passed right next to me Feb 5-got a haircut, lady used blow dryer, and electric shaver Feb 4-car engine started, was right next to it, it was loud...

...with my daughter. I got caught in all sorts of traumatizing volumes - Loud music from stereos and buskers, a marching drumline, and an ambulance passing us while we were walking to our car on the street. My ears felt brutal at the end of that day. I started Prednisone the next day. Again, I...

...sounds started again. Then they fluctuated off for couple weeks, then on for a couple weeks... up until I got hit by 4 different ambulance sirens while at the hospital with my daughter. After it faded that time, I brought it back by vacuuming (even using double protection). Then again it...

...but she didn't realise that she was infectious. My oxygen levels dropped this morning to 90-92, so my wife rang 111 and they sent an ambulance. They made me sit up and down over and over again to see if they dropped any further, but they didn't. They measured my sats at 94 and said it was...

I needed to hear this. I got a significant tinnitus increase from withdrawing from Klonopin, and then the hyperacusis made the tinnitus insanely reactive. Keep in mind I was on this drug for 4 years and then was put back on it a year later by an unknowledgeable/incompetent psychiatrist --...
