Thats because it stops or slows down the blood in your main artery at your neck. Your hearing the blood flow so when you stop the flow the sound stops.

I have similar issues. When I hear the pulse sound that matches my heartbeat it clashes when talking. And when you say it gets worse when moving slightly.....do you mean the pulsing sound gets louder when do something other then just sitting still?

Did the airbag go off??

So is this doctor saying that H is caused only by Superior Semicircular Canal Dehiscence?

Another article that leads the public to falsely believe that the only way you get tinnitus is from being in a band or listening to loud music.

Ahhh.. finally a cure! Thank you Alan Watson and your "gorgeous wife mary".

My wife is 35. Not sure how old your girlfriend is. She said if you want she can talk to your girlfriend for you, if you think that might help in regard to your girlfriend trying to understand better what your going thru. I think she has that apple facetime.

If your from canada, dont you have to type that in french too?

Wanting to sleep and forget about it is a normal reaction to this. Guessing that almost everyone on here would tell you the same thing.

If you only had it since Nov, there is a very good chance it will calm down. You still have time.

Maybe they can give you something just to take the edge off. I am sorry that this is happening to you.

Most of them are rated 85 at 15 ft. Meaning it is 85 when 15 feet away from it.

I think it is the higher frequency sounds that shortens the time greatly for damage.

Most MRI's with people that have T come back unremarkable. But you have other symptoms other then just T.

I am not sure how things work in canada. But when a doctor writes a script in the US for some sort of testing, it is unfortunately up to the patient to figure out where to go to have it done. Like I said, you need to find a quiet machine. They cost more to buy or rent so most places wont have them.

Mt sinai in NY has one. I am not sure where in canada there is one. You have to try and contact siemens.

I dont doubt that you should have a mri. Your going to need to find one that is not loud. http://usa.healthcare.siemens.com/magnetic-resonance-imaging/mr-quiet?stc=wwhim800768

I've had it since last nov. I was exposed to a built in siren in a alarm keypad that went off. Apparently the manufacturer put the siren into the keypad itself in lieu of having a separate siren. My daughter is almost 4.

Yes, I saw that article. I personally hate that they posted a pic of someone in a rock band and I apologize in advance for anyone here that has T from that. It is just that having spoken to people in the last year I keep getting confronted with being asked it I listened to loud music. The...

She is in NYC. I used to love to going into the city. I don't go anymore because of all the noise. I think I would have to move if I lived there. Not sure how they do it.

I would not say better per se, I would say that I simply tolerate it and expect the sound. Whereas before I would become more startled and immediately put on earmuffs. My wide and I have tried to explain to her that it hurts my/daddys ears when she is too loud. So she seems more willing as time...

I was hooked up with an iv in the mri machine and told them to stop within a few seconds because it was to loud. They said they have never seen that before. Please, dont trust them telling you it is not too loud. Even my ent thought it was almost a joke that I was afraid of the machine. I told...

You can view this report that was on abc: http://abcnews.go.com/Health/quest-silence-living-wth-hyperacusis/story?id=22284805 There is a guy in the second segment that has H, he has kids. The first couple in my opinion are shown as a little nutty although the H can make you crazy.

I have H, T and a three year old. Wearing the earmuffs is about the only thing you can do or walk away when they talk loud or scream. The H has gotten better so I can get away without wearing the muffs but I do still have no choice but to walk away sometimes. My guess is you kind of feel...

It would match your pulse if it was blood flow. I have it and it 100% matches.

Sometimes I start to think that this must be a bad dream because this is not possible that this has happened. It messes with your head because your mind is telling you that something is wrong. The positive thing for you is that you still have time to improve as you have only had this since may...

I don't think the manufacturer will do a study for tinnitus. I am not sure if they have even resolved the eye issues with the drug yet as stated in the FDA warning on the drug: http://www.fda.gov/Drugs/DrugSafety/ucm349538.htm

Has there ever been a study on tones -v- hissing -v- electrical sounds etc? Do you end up with a particular T sound or sounds depending on the cause of your T?

I have hissing. Your mind should eventually see it as background noise. Thats what is going on with me. But, it has taken a year for that to start to happen. But I know, it is horrible. I am lucky as far as sleeping because I have never been a light sleeper. Watching TV with the hiss is like...

LadyDi, I notice that you listed that your tinitus is from an airplane. Could I ask what type of sound(s) do you hear?

I would always just carry earplugs with you. You never know when you will need them. If you go to the movies again bring earmuffs and earplugs. It will be dark inside so you can just put on the muffs when the movie starts.

Is anyone on here from the UK on that autifony trial?..... http://www.autifony.com/autifony-tinnitus-phase-IIa-trial.asp

I just looked at the the linked article. It says that "The researchers found that mice that were treated with retigabine immediately after noise exposure did not develop tinnitus". Looks like they were saying it could work to prevent tinnitus from happening. It does look like a step in the...

I doubt it. But if they really want to, they could make a new drug by tweaking it and saying it is for tinnitus. They would have to go through the motions to try and get it approved. I think it all comes down to if they can really prove it will work on tinnitus and if it is worth the money for...

Doing a medical study on any drug is not a easy task. It can be done but it would be expensive given all the things that would needed. Also, when drugs become available as generic (I not sure if this drug is or not), the original manufacturer generally does not bother spending money on trials...

The attachment sound I hear seems to slowly be accruing more at the exact same time as when I hear a sound. Before there was more of a delay before I would hear it. Almost like an echo but with a high pitched tinny ringing sound. Now it seems to be more co-mingled with the sound so I dont seem...

My personal experience is that the only thing that works with H is time and keeping away from loud sounds.

I have reactive tinnitus. When you hear a sound you will hear an attachment sound a second later.

It is a good question, but probably does not matter since I am pretty sure that there is no way to get a image of your hair cells unless you're no longer living.

"Be careful with over protecting. It can lead to hyperacusis"........huh? I have never heard of someone getting hyperacusis simply because they overprotected their ears. If someone already has hyperacusis they may want to try and not over protect when hearing not loud sounds. But not the...

I got it about a year ago. At first I could not even stand the sound of opening a envelope or the sound of a plastic bag. I would have to wear earplugs when I opened the mail or moved paper. I have slowly got better but things still are louder then they should be. Things like the sound of a...

You having ringing and hissing at the same time or do you mean that it switches from one to the other?

If you are getting headaches, getting faint and have pulsatile tinnitus you should get a mri done to rule things out. Kind of shocked the doctor did not already give you a script for that already.

Just wondering how you think this all started? Were you exposed to a loud sound? Also, did you have your Ototacoustic Emissions tested and what did it say?

No, he means that when you hear any sound, you will hear another attachment sound or ringing along with what you are hearing at the same time.

Mine is reactive also to sound. Yes, to moving my head, chewing, walking, touching my face, yawning, moving or anything other then sitting still.

I personally would not use a nasal steroid any other way then it says to use it.

Just wondering what your mri said? Are you also sensitive to sounds?

i dont really think they are technically hairs.

It is terrible. I never knew that it could happen to someone. I was exposed to an adt alarm that went off. I think it had to do with the high frequency of the alarm. I never used a gun in my life and could care less about music, let alone loud music.

Ok, It makes sense for you because you have a baseline from prior to having the injections. Also, I was just wondering if it get louder when you yawn or does it stay the same?

I was just wondering how everyone is able to gauge at what level there T is every day after the drug was injected. Do you all have what I call a straight tone sound that never changes other then volume? The reason I ask is mine is always all over the place with all different sounds. Tones...

That is a informative picture, but just to point this out,... I assume that the pic is from a dead person as I dont think there is anyway they can get a image from a live person like that.

Was wondering what the result of the otoacoustic emission test was if you had one. Mine said that the "hairs" were there but did not respond correctly (ie: damaged). I am super sensitive to sound too. For a while I could not even open a piece of mail or touch paper because of the sound.

You would think that would work. But even if I did that , I would have to walk a mile or so once in the city, but almost any activity such as walking gets the ringing louder and louder and pulsating, then if I put the earplugs in it will even seem louder and sometimes takes hours to calm down...

I guess none of the 80% are on this web-board.

Dont mind me anyway. My wife and daughter went to NYC to see the Lion King. I wont go, am too worried it will be too loud even if I wear ear plugs.

I never said any data was faked. They had a established proof of concept which is all they need.
