Do you know why tinnitus would spike from LDN?

My ear concerns weren’t actually from Artemisinin/Lyme in the end.

Hey! How are you doing now? I’ve gotten these too ever since June of 2020! They’re so scary.

How long does your hearing loss last during these episodes? And I do know hormones can cause similar shifts as to what you’re describing, yes, but I haven’t seemed to notice a pattern yet. I’ve never had vertigo or dizziness with these episodes but I have been dizzy before, but I believe it’s...

I’m not trying to be anxious about it. As I’m sure you can understand, it’s hard to deal with symptoms that no one can pinpoint. It’s not in my opinion normal fleeting tinnitus, but maybe it is and I’ve just never experienced this type before. Go figure.

I’m feeling desperate here so any chance you guys may have any ideas @aura, @makeyourownluck or anyone else? Basically I just get these random attacks of sudden (but quickly resolving) hearing loss and tinnitus (can be brief or last as long 45 minutes, which so far is the longest it’s lasted)...

The anxiety is the worst. I’m a shell of a human being because of health anxiety.

Did you ever figure out what causes these random deafness and tinnitus spike episodes? Are you chalking it up to muscular (tensor tympani in particular)?

Update: I’ve realized that the herbs and Lyme were unrelated!

I have 2 missing otoacoustic emissions from my left ear (8 + 9 kHz); my right ear has them all intact. Audiogram/tympanogram all normal. I also get these random bouts of long-ish fleeting tinnitus in my left ear that are extremely disconcerting (can last up to 45 minutes which is really scary...

Did you ever figure out what this was?

Oh okay. Apparently it causes fluttering in the ears and I get that sometimes.

Thanks for your response :) Do you ever have fluttering in your ears? It’s called TTTS and I think I have it. I’m wondering if that’s what causes these longer episodes.

You’re now the third person to have suggested that, but I’ve never heard of it before. Is there a name for that phenomenon? Also, how long did it take for it to subside for you?

Thanks for your reply. I agree with your decision to ease up on what you’re doing but I wasn’t doing anything (I was listening to music in the opposite ear and I don’t listen loudly anyway) so I’m not sure how to avoid it from happening again. I’m really scared of permanent damage.

That’s scary. I’ve been really shaken up over it since it happened because I don’t know what causes it and I’m afraid of damage. Do you have tensor tympani syndrome?

F24 — Hi everyone, I’ve dealt with chronic Eustachian Tube Dysfunction since the summer of 2020. Since that time, sometimes I get the sensation of fullness and ringing in my ears as well. There is a particular scenario I am quite concerned about, however, that is the reason for this question —...

@Rjbookworm thank you for your kind words. I have been struggling but am generally okay. <3 I hope this tinnitus issue resolves.

@DebInAustralia I'm not entirely sure how this site works so I hope I tagged you properly. I have actually seen that posting re: Buhner and Artemisinin and I actually asked him myself and he said that he'd heard of Artemisinin causing such issues and said it could take 2 weeks to 2 months to...

Hi everyone. I'm Kate and I was diagnosed with Lyme Disease this past May. Since starting a particular herb (Artemisinin), I developed a clogged sensation in my ears as well as tinnitus. I have recently stopped the herb but I'm afraid the tinnitus will never stop -- not sure that's realistic...

it 100% sounds like lyme and co.

You absolutely have lyme disease and I'd seek out an LLMD (Lyme Literate MD) ASAP. Lyme disease is extremely tricky to diagnose and most doctors don't know anything about it.
