    Levetiracetam (Keppra) Worked for My Hyperacusis

    Like you bought it in Spain or ordered it online from a seller located in Spain? And yeah, I'm beginning to notice that as well. I hope my neurologist doesn't bullshit me. Just give me the damn drug and let me be on my way >.>

    Levetiracetam (Keppra) Worked for My Hyperacusis

    @Danny Boy Sorry if you answered this already, but I was declined Keppra by my primary care doctor. She said that I'd have to see a neurologist if I wanted it. Is this what happened to you? I really don't want to wait until November since my headaches are so terrible. Though to be honest, I'm...

    Update + 8 Month Anniversary

    So I've recently reached my 8 month anniversary for T (Oh yay...). It's been a tough journey and will probably continue to be a tough journey. Anyways, I FINALLY was able to get some testing done when it should've been done like three months but I digress. I got an MRI and surprise, surprise...

    I haven't finished Death Note, mostly because it got spoiled for me :( I'll probably watch Parasyte sometime soon. And you should totally read the manga, it's super good ^^ Not to mention season 2 won't be out till next year :(

    Just Need to Do a Little Venting ^^;

    Thank you very much Karen! I believe that I will habituate as well ^^ It was just a new experience with my Tinnitus that really made me miss the life I had before. I think I will be able to look back next year with good hopes that I will have made improvements. I'm hoping to get some help with...

    Teddie's so funny! His bear form is so cute >w< My favorite character is a tie between Adachi and Kanji; they're both so quirky in their own ways and then Naoto at a close second ^^

    Just Need to Do a Little Venting ^^;

    Thank you so much Georgia! :) You're so right about it making us special. We fight an invisible battle everyday. I just keep thinking "It could be so much worse--I could be dying right now." When I think about how much worse others have it, I feel like I can't give up because I don't know their...

    Just Need to Do a Little Venting ^^;

    Hello everyone ^^ I just need to do a little bit of venting since I don't know where else to go about T/H related stuff. Well, it's fourth of July and that means a lotttttt of fireworks. I decided to go with my step family because I'm out of state right now, and they didn't have ear plugs so I...

    I haven't played the games yet, but I watched P4's animation and the P3 movies. So good! :) Are you excited for Persona 5? :3

    I Need Help!

    Hmm, I just finished up Attack on Titan and Persona, so I haven't started anything yet. Been thinking of starting Parastye, Owari no Seraph, or Akame ga Kill :) What are you watching? ^^

    I Need Help!

    Yeah, for the most part haha. It still gets a little depressing sometimes, but hey ^^; I've heard good things about Parasyte. A friend of mine really enjoys it! :) So how are you doing lately?

    I Need Help!

    This is exactly how mine started. It's been six months for me and its gotten manageable for the most part. My ENT has been real slow about treatment, steroid pack and all. I'll be getting some testing done soon so maybe I'll have more insight. Stay strong , I know how tough the first couple...

    Went to the ENT Again...Just an Update

    Thanks :) And so true! The ringing hardly bothers me, mostly just the other symptoms now

    Went to the ENT Again...Just an Update

    I have not, I'm a little worried to without a doctor's permission but I've definitely considered it. I've got anxiety, so my neck and jaw are usually tense..might help a lot, idk xD

    Went to the ENT Again...Just an Update

    Hello again! So I went back to the ENT on Thursday and I had been dreading it all week because I was going to take a hearing test. I was for sure that I had hearing loss of some sort (I'm guilty of listening to music on high...never again) but both the ENT and the woman testing me said I had...

    Going Back to the ENT...Wondering About Tests

    At my previous appointment almost 3 weeks ago he said there was some but said that it might be draining. Didn't have ear pain but do now + a recurring cold (grr -.-) so I'm thinking that I may have an ear infection this time around. Just can't escape the sickness haha xD

    Going Back to the ENT...Wondering About Tests

    Made an appointment yesterday with the ENT...I'll be returning the 26th and this time he said he wants to give me a hearing test. I'm a bit paranoid about it though; I'm concerned I may have hearing loss but on the other hand I'm not sure what steps to take if I have no hearing loss. What other...

    Sinus Infection Started My "Ringing"?

    If only I could adopt positivity to your extent...I don't think T is a blessing per say, but I do think it could be used as a motivator to remind you to treat your health as sacred. Due to T, I'm more determined than ever to exercise and eat right..anything to make myself feel better. I couldn't...

    Sinus Infection Started My "Ringing"?

    Yeah, haha, I know. Just figured I'd give it a shot anyways xD I hope it went away for him in any case :) Just getting a little desperate for answers while waiting this out.

    Sinus Infection Started My "Ringing"?

    Hello! I know this thread is old, but your condition is so similar to mine. Got a cold a month ago which turned into a sinus infection and eventually a ringing. Was told I had a lot of fluid but it was draining slowly. I have a lot of fullness and congestion and ear pain at times as well...

    A Supplement That Resolved My Tinnitus

    @karine Did you ever have other symptoms, like maybe head pressure/headaches and a feeling of head and ear congestion? Or maybe sound sensitivity? I've had T for almost a month and these symptoms feel worse than the ringing sometimes. Can't tell if it's sinus infection related or what, since...

    Thanks Kathi, I was just worried about it. I'm hopeful that it'll go away soon since sound sensitivity and such are worse to me than the ringing itself. :)

    Tinnitus Symptom Questions

    Hello! So I was wondering about these symptoms and it's relation to my T. 1) The headaches...they appear in one spot and I have them several times a day for short bursts of time, as if it's throbbing. Rubbing kind of helps, but the relief doesn't last long. 2) Congestion in my ears...it feels...

    Hello!

    I'm slowly preparing myself for the situation in which it doesn't resolve as well as accepting that's it there and moving on. I can't wait to return to my normal activities without the distraction, that's one of my biggest motivators. Little hard to write novels with this ringing xD I hope I can...

    Hello!

    That's where I am right now for the most part as well. I can't tell if it's getting better or if I'm getting used to it..hopefully the former :D I've read a few success stories but it wouldn't hurt to read more. They're very inspiring! Anyways, thanks for responding, I much appreciate it~
  33. Brittany

    Hello!

    Thank you, that gives me hope! And yeah, I've heard your reaction is one of the most important things to some kind of relief, so I'm trying to stay positive. I'm glad it's gotten a little better for you, hopefully it only gets better from here onward :) I love Pikachu too..well, Pokemon in...

    Hello!

    I'm slowly becoming happier and more accepting of it :) Some days are good and some aren't. I'm not used to having these unbalanced days, but I'm starting to come to terms with it. And it's nice to see so many anime fans here, makes it feel a little more...homey I guess you could say? Haha, I...

    Hello!

    I really hope that it will, but I'm not going to swear by it. That would be even worse having your hopes crushed >.> Today actually, it calmed a little since last night but I have more head congestion that usual. I wonder if it's connected somehow. 18 months sounds so far but I will do my best...
  36. Brittany

    Hello!

    Yes, that would be hard. I'm having a hard time accepting things as well. Probably the worst thing about it in my opinion >.> Also, I see you're an anime lover, that's awesome!
  37. Brittany

    Hello!

    Yes, will do! :) I'm a little worried about it because I've read stories where it's taken people a very long time; a few even said that they never did for some reason or another, which is very scary. In a way though, I feel like I've habituated a little already, as the sounds aren't as...

    Hello!

    Hello! My name is Brittany, I'm 19 years old and my Tinnitus started early to mid January of this year (yeah, happy New Years to me right? haha). It all began with a cold that I had gotten shortly after Christmas. A few days later I noticed a loud drumming sound in my ears. Went to my family...
