    thanks Karen and I am glad you had some sleep last night. people like us learn to appreciate just a few hours when sometimes we experience none at all. All day the noise has been so turbulent and I cannot figure out what triggered it. I don't know what things can make it worse so I don't know...

    :( :( :( so last night I tried just the soursop leaf tea leaving out the tart cherry juice. experimenting is the only way I would know what works. well I got 2 hours sleep and then it was tossing and turning for a long while. I did not want to look at the time since that makes my anxiety worse...

    Lorazepam (Ativan) Experiment

    I have been using benzo for a month. though I myself hate the idea of taking pills to sleep especially, pulsatile tinnitus is enough to send me out of my mind literally so I have no choice though I have been experimenting with different teas to see if I can rely on those instead. so far I know...

    so here's a little update that is a BIG deal for me! 2 nights ago, I drank the sour soup leaf tea. The night was not so great but I did sleep some WITHOUT TAKING THE BENZODIAZEPINE. however last night, I tried a different route. I left the leaf to draw in hot water much longer. I took the cherry...

    Magnesium for Relief of Tinnitus Research

    has anyone ever tried tart cherry juice FROM CONCENTRATE? I saw it on Dr Oz and as you will all understand, I am willing to try anything that may help with sleep. Since it seems my pineal gland don't seem to be releasing the natural melatonin it should, I thought I'd try this juice which is...

    Tinnitus Flowchart: Types of Tinnitus and the Corresponding Causes of It

    wow.. this is very helpful. I am pretty sure the doctors I have been too don't even know this much! I will use this as a guide to ask questions and pester my doctor until she sends me to have the appropriate tests done.

    I am not at all happy that anyone has this PT problem, but it does somehow encourage me when I realise I am not the only one struggling with this. I long to be able to sleep again WITHOUT medications. at nights, its like labour trying to get ready for sleep. I deliberately try to stay in the...
