Cool! That sounds fun! You could wear some earmuffs over the earplugs. I was talking with my audiologist today about the concert I am going to and she said my custom earplugs are rated to reduce noise by 20 decibels should be just fine. She has tinnitus as well and she uses the same earplugs and...

Right on! I am going to a 3 day metal fest in September. I have some custom earplugs for it and thankfully it is outside. I also plan on staying very far away from the speakers.

Wow, my story is pretty similar to this! Loud ass metal and hardcore shows. I have only been dealing with my loud tinnitus for 2 months although I’ve had very mild tinnitus for years. I hope I can be habituated in the coming months as well. Glad to hear you're doing better! Do you think you...

I went in for a cleaning a few months ago and they used that ultrasonic scaler. The sound is horrible, but thankfully it had no effect on my tinnitus. I have to get a cavity filled this Saturday, not looking forward to it. I think the drill used for cavities is somewhat quieter than the scaler...

One of my many favorite songs from one of my favorite pop punk bands. Helps keep me in a positive mood when I am not feeling so great. Take care!

Well, that makes me feel better about going. My fear is making it worse, but I don’t want to give up things that I enjoy. Thanks for the info Tau!

I have I guess what you would call WNGs, but only one setting is a white noise and the rest are a calming music. They are Widex hearing aids that do not amplify sound but play low level sounds into my ears. They are part of the TRT I am doing with an audiologist. I am only a little over a month...

Nice! I have been taking Lazarus Naturals' Full Spectrum CBD. It has been helping me sleep better, but has had no effect on my tinnitus. I just bought another bottle, but it sounds like I need to try this CBG. How fast do you go through a bottle?

I’m 36 and I’ve had very mild tinnitus for years and up until about 2 months ago it all of a sudden ramped up to where I can hear it 24/7. Mine is from years of punk and hardcore shows with zero ear protection. I recently told my parents and they asked me why I never told them about this...

Update: It has been just over a week since my 2nd Pfizer shot and thankfully the higher pitch frequency has subsided back to baseline. It started 2 days after I received the vaccine and subsided about 3 days later.

The COVID-19 vaccine sure as hell didn’t cure mine. The 2nd one gave me a spike! It’s crazy to think the vaccine would alleviate his tinnitus while causing others to get it for the first time or make existing tinnitus worse or do nothing at all. It makes me wonder if future treatments or...

Update: About 72 hours after the 2nd Pfizer dose, I am dealing with a change in my tinnitus. It is either louder or higher in pitch. Hard to tell, but either way no fun. I still have a bit of a fever, so I am hoping it is just due to inflammation response and it will eventually subside. I will...

I am almost 72 hours post my 2nd Pfizer shot, and I think I am having a spike from it. Last night the ringing became louder, or higher pitched maybe. I got terrible sleep because of it. It was still the same this morning. I hope this isn’t permanent. I am going to take anti-inflammatory...

Update: 48 hours after my 2nd Pfizer shot. I am pretty much back to 100% other than feeling a bit fatigued. Aches and fever are gone. My tinnitus still seems to be unaffected. Hoping it stays that way! If I notice any change in my tinnitus I will provide an update. Stay strong and take care!

Ok, it has been a little over 24 hours since my second Pfizer shot. I was feeling pretty good all day yesterday, although my tinnitus did feel louder or more noticeable. I woke up around 2 am to chills and uncontrollable body shaking. Thankfully the shaking subsided after I got another blanket...

Just for background, I have had very mild tinnitus from loud noise exposure. I could only hear it in quiet settings. Early May of this year I woke up to the tinnitus being much louder and I can now hear it all day even when watching TV. I had my first dose of Pfizer about 2 weeks after my spike...

I have been beating myself up about the tinnitus. It is my fault from going to loud concerts and not even thinking about hearing protection. I have been dwelling on it since my spike happened back in May and it unfortunately has not subsided. I wish I never got into punk and hardcore music. Like...

Good evening, I want to share my experience with the Pfizer vaccine. I have had tinnitus from loud noise exposure since at least 2013. May of this year I woke up to a spike that has not calmed down. It’s very frustrating and invasive. Anyways, I got my first Pfizer shot about 2 weeks after my...
