I'd have to agree. Before T I wasn't much of a drinker, just the occasional glass of wine on a special occasion. My mom and husband both suggested I have a few glasses of wine to relax. I decided to try champagne (the little bottles with screw off tops which we jokingly refer to as girl beer)...

Has anyone notice a spike in perception of tinnitus after visiting a high altitude? I noticed my tinnitus worsen as soon as I arrived in the mountains and even now that I'm home at sea level 5 days later, the volume and intensity are way up. It could be that the mountains were so peaceful and...

Back to Geo... Arguments about religion or philosophy have no place here. We all understand Geo's emotional frustration. These problems are so unique and having both T and H is so intolerable sometimes. I personally have 3 super loud noises in my head 24/7 and none can be masked. Honestly, it's...

I haven't been on this forum for a while and I really appreciate the camaraderie! I relate to what everyone is saying. My T has been increasing in volume and complexity regardless of my mood, stress or activity. I have 3 sounds-- super loud high electrical eeeeee (scream), a middle range motor...

Thank you Jazz and all, I will try my masking apps again. I really like to read on my kindle app or just read articles and news on the net but I find that the silence is a problem because my T sounds act up. Unfortunately I can't concentrate with music. I'm going to experiement with the masking...

I can go for a few hours at a time without thinking about my tinnitus if I'm busy, focused or social. But at night when I'm reading or on my computer... Ouch, it's so loud it hurts. I have 2 completely different sounds. One is a high pitched electrical type sound about 12,000 hz (I think) and...

Just thought I would mention that there has been a lot of talk on the thyroid FB site about tinnitus lately. It was the first time that a large group or people chimed in saying that they felt there was some sort of correlation between the timing of (when they started) thyroid meds and their...

I just tried the hushtinnitus site to experiment with residual inhibition which seems to be based on the same idea -- playing your tinnitus frequency for a few seconds or minutes and filling in the sounds that your brain is missing from hearing loss. According to the theory, the brain' neurons...

Sounds like you are using musical editing software which is over my head but if you invent something that works and takes only a few seconds and could be used intermittently (rather than a few hours a day like Neuromonics) you will really be onto something!

Wow! I had no idea they were both tinnitus sufferers. That clip is fantastic. I will definitely watch it many times over and remind myself that peoples lives go on with this noisy syndrome. As far as your piercing noise, mine is piercing and loud as well so I get it and now the humming...

Yes, I also worry about louder tinnitus volume and new sounds due to hearing loss. Sorry to hear about your surgery gone bad and the regret you feel. You made the best decision you could given the info you had. If all these folks can cope with these crazy sounds then so can we, right? I have...

Steve., I didn't read your post carefully. I see that you have multiple tones/sounds also and you are "happy" so that is very hopeful, thank you!!! Thanks to all of you. Feeling less alone really helps.

Oh wow Duane, you are really dealing with it. A Tinnitus Quartet! Yikes, well we will surely be challenged by these multiple tones, won't we? So I guess when we meet people with only one tone, we will think they are lucky and they will feel lucky. I would like to "hear" how you manage with your...

Ok thanks friends. So does this mean that over time, I will habituate to the deep ominous second tone? Lately the high tone has become more piercing, but I think it's stress-related and I've had headaches again. I hope that will settle down eventually as it has before. But the low tone is a...

My current frustration which is that in addition to living with this very loud high pitched ear piercing tinnitus since November 2013, I've developed low pitched tinnitus as well, a completely separate tone, also on both sides. It's a low E (on the guitar) but isn't musical in quality. It's...

Back in October 2013 I accompanied my daughter to an MRI, sat in the room and was given ear plugs and muffs, however, the techs didn't instruct me on how to put the plugs in. My recollection is they were not adequately pushed in to protect my ears. I have had horrible constant tinnitus and...

Thank you everyone for your support. This is definitely tough. Tonight I was thinking about living with tinnitus, ongoing. It's a really unique kind of pain. The high pitch actually hurts my ears, physically. But the oppressive, constant noise is psychologically damaging. I would love to hear...

I'm struggling with super loud volume as well and it's so draining. I also feel movement in my ear and since I've lost some hearing in both ears I worry that the movement indicates further hearing loss. I agree with all of you about the docs. They just throw their hands up. Having another...

Maybe I should start a new thread but I have super high volume tinnitus along with hearing loss. It's the hearing loss that scares me more than anything, being a musician ;(
