Hey everyone, I got tinnitus a year and a half ago. I'm habituated now, and I've been to loud events, concerts, movies, clubs, etc. With protection and haven't noticed spikes or any change in the volume of my tinnitus. Nevertheless I've stayed away from headphone use because of things that...

Yup. I think it got softer and softer. Mine wasn't that loud, you know? I still could only hear it in silence but now it's different. I don't know how to explain it? Basically it was a tone before that faded and now i'm stuck with a white noise around my ears so it's not that noticeable and it's...

I just notice it when I lay my head on my pillow. If it's very quiet I just hear like a white noise around my ears but nothing else. I think it reduced over time... At first it felt like it was a laser light going through my head. I'm not sure if it reduced over time or that at first I was just...

Hey everyone, it's been too long! I thought I'd come back to write my success story because for me these kind of things were very important at the beginning of this thing, so I took a break from my thesis (that I have to hand in at the end of the month if I want to get out of university...

Hey everyone, is not my success story sadly, but a girl I know told me her story so I had to come and write it here! Three or four years ago her tinnitus came on suddenly one night while she was studying at university. She was under a lot of stress at the time with the classes and her...

I am so glad to hear from you! In my freak-out phase I was constantly checking your profile, see how you were doing. You give me a glimpse of hope in things.

How long does it take for it to go away?

Thank you @Frizz I remember your posts from three months ago, just when mine started. I hope you're in a good place mentally, and your problems are getting better with time. I was quite scared of ruining my progress, but I'm glad I didn't get a spike. The tone has settled down to a really low...

Hi everyone I was doing so much better! Last week my CBT therapist told me to try and avoid thinking about tinnitus, and I did... I couldn't hear the tone at all, and the buzzing was there but almost unnoticeable. Yesterday I went to a bar with loud music (I had done this before with zero...

Hi, I was reading your story. I deal with jaw pain and since then my ears feel clogged and I can hear my eustachian tubes opening like a popcorn, the same way you said on one of your posts. I am wearing a mouth guard that has helped with the feeling of fullness but I'd like to ask if it went...

Even the tinnitus has lowered in volume and the tone even disappears for a few days (it was the case last week)

Hi I've had cracking when swallowing and fullness in my ears for two months now. It started for me one month into tinnitus and it coupled with bad jaw pain (so bad that eating, smiling and talking hurt). Since I got a mouth guard three weeks ago the fullness has been better and even sometimes...

Hi everyone, I guess I have some good news. The tone I had... it's not there. It hasn't been there for about a week or so! It has faded and i am left with a buzzing and a static and they're interchangeable. Sometimes it's the static and sometimes it's the buzzing, but it doesn't bother me...

Hi, @dm222 I was planning to write a two months in story but I didn't find the time or the energy to come to this forum –I have been avoiding it for obvious reasons. I think I wasn't honest with myself on the first post: I was saying I couldn't hear it before when I did, but I do notice a...

I'm glad you're doing better! After all this time have you noticed a reduction on the sound or is it the same?

how do you take it?

Aw man, I'm really sorry. How long have you been using the splint? What does the jaw therapist do? I'm thinking of going to a chiropractor, see if he can do something for my jaw. Do you use the splint day and night? The ETD symptoms are still there?

Any updates? I'm waiting for my splint and

Hi, I still have it. The tone it's there, but these past days I can only hear it if I lay my head on the pillow. It's low, I guess, most of the day it's gone for me and I have started to ignore it so even when it's quiet I can't really hear it (but it's there). The static is more present...

Yeah, it went away already. Thank god. Haha I shouldn't worry that much.

Hi everyone, me again. The past week was just fine, I was happy and couldn't really hear it at all. The tone it's there, sometimes it's intermittent and sometimes it's steady, but I don't know if it changes according to things. The last four or five days I only heard it the tone when I laid my...

Do you know how long it took for it to fade?

Nada te turbe, nada te espante, todo se pasa, Dios no se muda.

Hi everyone, sorry to bump this post but it's the one I found most useful. I've had cracking and popping in my ears for about a week and have had T for six weeks. I believe my ETD is related to the problems with my jaw since i've been under a lot of stress and anxiety (thanks to t) and my jaw...

I only hear it swallowing saliva, not chewing or anything. My useless ENT said my ears were fine. The thing is I have TMJD and since I got T (a month ago) I've been under a lot of stress that has worsened my bruxism and my TMJD, so right now I can't put three fingers inside my mouth, and...

¡Hola! Te envié un mensaje. Gracias por contestar. ¿Por qué borraste la respuesta anterior? Estaba mucho más completa :( Eh, son los de espuma naranja que venden en Homecenter. Es de NRR 32DB, no 33, pero algo es algo. ¿En qué concierto te dio? ¿Cómo has venido mejorando en los últimos meses?

An update on things: I know I shouldn't be monitoring my T but I am dealing with obsessive thoughts right now so let me be. The intermittent high pitched tone I hear last night is here again, but I didn't notice it when I got home with my foam earplugs. Why did it appeared later? I only look...

I have this too, but I'm not sure why since it started a month in after onset. I have mucus and phlegm. I don't know why, it seems strange and apparently no one has noted the relation between the two.

Hi, did your t resolved?

I'm glad!! I hope you recover and post an update. c:

Another tone added. High pitched but not ultra high, haha. Dunno where it came from

How long have you had t? Have you seen progress? I'm 5 weeks in and feel so hopeless. This will be eternal.

Gracias, muchísimas gracias. I still don't know what to do, how to force positive thoughts because my mind is a black hole.

Thank you. I feel like a baby because even my loud hissing is not audible without 33db reduction earplugs. Not in class, not outside. Currently I am sitting in an office without them and the voices of my teacher and classmate cover it. I do have sensitivity to sound. Wouldn't say H but i...

Hello, i am still struggling. As of right now I am sitting in a library with my foam earplugs on listening to the hissing. The high pitched tone I heard sometime is not there. WHY?! I hear the hissing -loud- and the intermittent tone is in the back, really really really mild, almost unhearable...

Forgot to mention: Yesterday afternoon I went to a friend's house and when I came in it was very very quiet, in silence even. I didn't hear my T tone or the hissing. I was in silence for maybe 10 or 15 minutes. Don't know if I was ignoring it or it just wasn't on my awareness.

I am glad you're experiencing this. I'm looking forward to your next update and success story!

I am much better now. T tone almost audible in silence, still sensitive to some sounds. another fleeting t episode on my good ear i believe. It's so impressive what stress and anxiety can do to your tinnitus.

Ok so my normal tone is http://szynalski.com/tone#1655,tri,v0.05 1,655 Hz which is quite different as it was before prednisone

Ok, so here I am again. I'm still in the mid of an anxiety attack, my body shakes from time to time. Wanted to say that two hours ago my head seemed filled with crickets and loud noises. Now I'm much more calmer and the sounds have come down. My hearing is still sensitive but alas

Hi everyone. Not a good day today either. I had fleeting T twice today, I think. lmao. Anyways, I had a weird moment this morning. It was 5:30 AM and I got up... I have been obsessing over my T this past few days, so I grabbed my foam earplugs and put them on. I was still asleep but it was...

Hi how is your T doing?

Yeah @Bill Bauer, and I have a bad jaw too... I'm getting a splint done tomorrow, see if it helps in the long term. Hey, when I yawn, I can hear the tone louder... Is it common? I was thinking if i should have my hopes up and just accept it. What do you think? I believe it was my approach the...

No, I just have a lot of mucus and phlegm in my throat right now. I wasn't exposed to anything loud, I always wear earplugs when outside. I believe is ETD because when I swallow water with my nose closed, my ears crack and pop. I'm going to the ENT on friday, see if they prescribe me a nasal...

Hey, how is your T now?

I truly hope so. Friday it was my first time in over a month haha. Not silence, I think I just ignore it. Thank you so much for answering! You are one of the members on this site that has helped me through this month, I really like you haha :p. I thought of PMing you but I believe it is...

Thank you @glynis and @dnl You're right @dnl, if I look back two weeks ago my T was much more louder. Sometimes I feel like a baby because mine's very mild. Even in the first weeks I couldn't hear it above everyday sounds. I'm trying to live each day, but sometimes it's so hard. If I could...

So today it's five weeks since the onset. I wrote something last week when I was feeling positive and things seemed brighter (https://www.tinnitustalk.com/threads/one-month-in-dont-lose-hope.27554/) but today... things don't seem good. I'm really sad. On friday I had an episode of fleeting...

It happened to me again today. I was laying down, although the pitch was higher but not louder.

Living each day

Hi. I got my T a month ago after an ear syringing procedure. How is your t now?

Hi, how is your t now?

Hi, how is your T these days?

Hi! I have read your story and know you were diagnosed with ETD. My T is not ETD caused, but seven days ago my ears started cracking everytime I swallow, and my ears feel full (but my hearing is not affected). Did you had those symptoms?

It happened to me two days ago. I was sitting in a computer room with moderate noise, nothing too loud really, and suddenly my hearing was off and a pure tone louder than my T came on. It lasted for about 10 seconds or so, and I got really really scared. It was high, even higher than the T tone...

Hi. How is your T now?

Hi. Any improvement on your T?

Jaja! Estoy tratando de tener esperanzas. Ahora mis oídos suenan cada vez que trago saliva, no sé si sea una disfunción de los tubos eustaqueos o algo, o si tal vez es tensión en la mandíbula. Gracias por los buenos deseos, yo estoy muy mentalizada en que se va a ir y en que voy a estar bien, y...
