    I Think Bad Posture Has Brought It On...

    Hi I did, and the women was 100 times more helpful than my doctor, who referred me 26 days NHS apt. My ear with no ringing was fine, T ear was ok except dipped below 20 on the low notes, though I feel the T was masking it. She said all looks healthy, no obviosu signs of infection bu there's...

    I Think Bad Posture Has Brought It On...

    Hi, I started to get this ringing in my ear about 3 weeks ago now. Have been on here and we have discussed it a lot. However, after readng loads on it I think bad posture has brought it on. My back has been a little tight around the last 3/5 weeks, sitting doing work ona sofa, and leaning...

    Deep Dreaming...

    I used to listen to light thunder storms during sleep through youtube etc, would always result in a slightly deeper sleep and mostly more detailed dreams. So obviously with me being a new one to this mild form of Tinnitus (it's going to go soon I swear - it's getting milder), I have been...

    Best Earplugs?

    Thanks I got the ACS ER20, small things that don't seem to pop out your ear. Hopefully come soon, but also hopeful this T will do one soon.

    Can the Body of God Help Me?

    Not particularly. Could have been stress or pain. As my back felt tight leading up to the moment it sort of kicked in. But also power tools. But weeks befor IT kicked in. Not sure. Could be metal dust from sanding metal surfaces. I am praying every night it does one. (Not religious I'm just...

    Can the Body of God Help Me?

    OK so I don't have the body go god physically, but I think I eat well, and was exercising 3 times a week just a week ago... I don't eat any sugared or processed foods, don't drink alcohol, stopped 18 weeks ago, don't smoke. I eat lots of greens, fruits, wholemeal whenever I have grains. So...

    Best Earplugs?

    Hi. Is it advisable to get ear plugs? I have only had this ringing for 5 days... I am hoping it will go for good, but until then preventative measures need to be taken. I don't want to use those yellow things, is there any out there for around £20 that are more moulded and continuous use...

    Prednisone? Will I Be Given It and Is It Too Late?

    Let's assume it could be one of these, and I get seen in 5 days time, (9/10 days with T) can I still be cured or sorted?? How far is too far?>?

    Prednisone? Will I Be Given It and Is It Too Late?

    Who even carries Prednisone around with them, and who even knows what the symptoms are that would mean you take it (should you just happen to be carrying it around).

    Prednisone? Will I Be Given It and Is It Too Late?

    This is fu**ing unbelievable. If there is an almighty God why would he do this to his creations? Surly as a mere punishment? I think I have answered that one then.

    Prednisone? Will I Be Given It and Is It Too Late?

    Definitely can not afford private right now. I am going in and demanding Predison. How big is this 'window of opportunity' you say? What possible treatable causes? I was going to ask the doc that despite her saying there is nothing in my ear that I wanted her to 'de wax' or whatever the...

    Prednisone? Will I Be Given It and Is It Too Late?

    Hi, have been reading loads on here, some good advice. I have read Predison can help in early diagnosis, I think I have had this ringing now for 4 days, I am going to the docs again tomorrow and will tell them I have shooting pains and bad headaches in my head, so they fast track me to see a...

    Will This Be Temporary?

    Just a thought to all who have been helping. I read that it's possible injury or some form of back pain can be the cause. Well only 1 or 2 weeks before, I was suffering from a very tight back, it help like my muscles were really tight and stiff, wasn't sure what was going on, I had a bad...

    Will This Be Temporary?

    I have since spoke to some friends on or message group, who also inform me that some of them also suffer from 'T'. Which has made me think this is not so bad, still I want it to go away though and will be taking every preventative measure available.

    Will This Be Temporary?

    Hi, I'm interested to know why? Is this to allow the ear to train itself in certain low level environments? And save the protection for more dangerous environments? Does the ear need training at all? Or is it just let it get on with its own recovery?

    Will This Be Temporary?

    I went to the audiologist, they said to come for a hearing test, but all they can do is find out if i have any hearing loss, not diagnose on the ringing in my ear. So what now, wait 47 days till the NHS appointment?!! Anything I can do? I am sat here in the library doing work. I have my...

    Will This Be Temporary?

    No, but I wouldn't have thought the wind could get inside my helmet anyway? What is the point in having ears if we can't use them to the fullest? No other animal uses ear plugs, why should humans be any different? Is it because our ears are not designed to cope in such loud environments that...

    What about listening to some music in the Morning? To back out the ringing? I can not just sit here in silence, no tea, no music, i may as well just call it a day! I am going to go get a herring check today (i'll put ear phones in with no music to protect me from the dangers of the outside...

    Will This Be Temporary?

    So the docs I went to today is classed as an ENT? She just stuck a tool in my ear, looked and said all looks ok... Like I said I was not convinced that it was a thorough check? So there is a good chance that it will heal itself? So while at the gym deffo no ear phones? Damn, it's hard to run...

    Will This Be Temporary?

    OK 2 questions. Can the ear repair itself (the hairs?) Should I go to get a hearing test? Can they do anything? Anything I can be doing to help it heal itself? Use some kind of ear plugs? Avoid raves? What is the % of healing?

    Will This Be Temporary?

    Forehead pushed against palm, no real difference. Can not think what I did before it happened? Like I said, my last gym session was 4 days before it happened, using in ear phones, even then I was only running and don't blast music.. Can't really think of anything. Someone mentioned their...

    Will This Be Temporary?

    Hi, not particularly loud sounds no, to be honest I've not been to a club for a long time, at home I don't have a TV, I have music on but not loud at all, and a lot of time I sit in silence. Other symptoms include some shooting pains across the head, not painful just sort of awkward, sometimes a...

    Will This Be Temporary?

    Thanks, not sure i have time to be taking part in studies. But I read this on the site.. 'If so, you should seek specialist medical advice without delay. While your tinnitus may be temporary, the condition can also become permanent.' So this could be temporary, and the doctor said 47 days!? I...

    Avoid loud music? So no more parties or anything? I don't even party that much in loud places, don't even drink now. So you say avoid loud music forever, if this is not going away avoid loud music forever?

    Will This Be Temporary?

    Not too sure. I'm not in the happiest of places, lot's of pressures on, trying to hard to make things happen, working on a new business idea, not seeing friends as much due to trying to hard with things. But generally I'm a positive person, but I think I have mood swings that come and go, one...

    Will This Be Temporary?

    Hi, not sure what is going on. One minute fine next minute a growing ringing in my ear.. At first it was both ears then only my left ear. I don't have to describe it as a lot of you on here will know. I don't particularly have music loud at home, use in ear phones at the gym. I went to the...
