    Tinnitus Onset Coincided with Getting Pfizer COVID-19 Vaccine

    Thanks for updating on your condition, good to know that nothing was seen on the MRI; the Lipo-Flavonoid may come in a powder form which would solve the issue of swallowing a pill. Tinnitus is a listed side effect of the mRNA shot so the chances are it's the shot that caused the tinnitus onset...

    Do You Remember Your Last Day of Silence?

    2020 US Presidential Election

    President Trump wasn't "coasting on Obama policy," it is an interesting thing with stock markets that they will climb or fall on the outcome of an election. I've been around long enough to see it happen time and time again.

    Welcome to the Forum:welcomesignanimation: My tinnitus started much the same way as yours, knocked for a 6 (that's meters) :eek: unconscious for over ten minutes and woke to ringing in my head.

    Comparison of Melatonin and Sertraline Therapies on Tinnitus: A Randomized Clinical Trial

    Melatonin production reduces as we age and so taking Melatonin isn't harmful as we get older. It isn't recommended for younger people as they normally produce it sufficiently. That being said, when the brain is impacted by tinnitus I believe that the normal cycle of brainwaves during sleep is...

    Internal Head Tinnitus: Is It Likely Going to Be Permanent?

    My simplified understanding is there are generally three areas to hearing, the outer ear with all the little bones, the auditory nerve pathway from the outer part of the ear (bones etc) to the brain, and then the auditory section of the brain itself. I have had the "brain tinnitus" 24/7 since...

    Hi all, interesting discussion, while the areas affected by tinnitus are lumped into one basket I believe there can be no major break through in research and this is why some therapies are seen to work better for some cases of tinnitus and not others.
