I'm 58 and I first got tinnitus at the age of 22 - you definitely learn to "tune it out" - I have had several increases over the decades due to stressful life situations and health issues - just go with the flow! The weird thing is I have hearing loss too (that came first at the age of 15 - so...

I agree sakrt! Telis, Try CBD oil - it helps me sleep and try to stay away from the drugs to handle the T - it doesn't help long term at all and 9 times out of 10 makes it louder, more piercing and worse!

Hi Dan - I totally understand and sorry your feeling frustrated! Hope you get some relief as I have from clonazepam. I recently added gabapentin in hopes to lower my tinnitus - it was great for a month or so for sleep (didn't lower the tinnitus but then I started getting dizzy spells and brain...

My pills are generic only - it's the only way insurance will cover - so I have 0.5mg clonazepam only, my pills have been pink and yellow - it varies with each refill and I normally take 0.25mg each night for sleep and use herbs during the day (like gingko, vinpocetine and pycnogenol) and have...

Hi Once - hope you are doing well! I have been managing day to day has I always have -still battling allergies (pollen), making my T spike but I notice that when the barometric pressure is low, my T is lower - below 30 is a good day, unfortunately since I started this new tracking barometric...

Sorry Carltonr - I was referring to this thread Tinnitology and Dr. Abraham Shulman

HI Once :-) Found this post and wondering how things have gone with Dr. Schulman? Is there any hope for long term sufferers of severe T/Hyperacusis. I might ask my psychiatrist about the gabapentin/klonopin combo - most doctors are not knowledgeable in any way about Tinnitus in my experience. My...

Hi OnceUponaTime :-) How are you? Thanks for asking, I'm doing well - I have been sick with flu and that spiked my T and I had very little sleep during those days, making the stress and T worse. My T is so loud I have had my husband put his ear against my ear to see if he hears it but no luck...

It is amazing how medication works differently on everyone! I was on Klonopin for 15 years plus, it was calming and helped me sleep, BUT when the doc added Prozac for daytime anxiety -that was when my T spiked big time. Thanks for the links EDDTEKK I was thinking about asking my doc for...

Thanks so much Lane - I will look into MHBOT chamber. :-)

I took it for about 18 months - I started tapering off at 12 months. Prozac is a scary drug - it spiked my T within 2 months of started it (and didn't drop off at all) but I had no idea it was the Prozac until 10 months later, which was when I started to taper off. My doctor told me that alot of...

No - I never had headaches that I attributed to Klonopin. I get migraines from time to time and throbbing ears! I tell my husband that "my woofers are woofing" when I get the throbbing in my ears. I pray that I could go back to the tinnitus level before Prozac 2014 - that level was manageable.

Thanks - the is the first time I have ever commented in a forum on tinnitus, most people including doctors don't have a clue what we go through 24/7! Klonopin was first prescribed for anxiety and trouble sleeping - I could tolerate the tinnitus then but a few years later a Doctor prescribe me...

Very informative thread! I have been Klonopin 0.5mg for 15 yrs for anxiety and they help me sleep with my tinnitus. I have never increased the dosage and have never abused Klonopin - I got a years worth leftover when the doctor said she couldn't prescribe them anymore - I had to go to a...
