My deepest sympathy for you and all her loved ones. Some day you’ll meet again, always remember that Dave.

The ‘clicking’ when you swallow is thick mucus in your eustachian tubes. Most likely caused by a cold. Up to 3 months after cold to go away.

Congrats!!! Since microsuction caused the tinnitus, it must have something to do with your ear drum. Perhaps it finally healed the right way.

Yep. Actually 5 years!!

Good for you. If that helps you, that’s great. Maybe that can help others if they try to look at it that way.

How’s your hearing been lately? I hope some kind of recovery. And believe me, I know what it is like dealing with inexperienced doctors in hospitals. It’s the same here in NYC - everyone you see is a BS intern who knows less than your average nurse. Very frustrating!!

Don’t mean to be so negative Daniel, just keeping it real. Think about it, there is no cure for people paralyzed because of ‘nerve damage’, yet some think there will be a cure for tinnitus. Stefan and Liberman (never heard of them) are giving you pipe dreams my friend. I’m hoping I’m wrong...

Ummmm, Never be happy getting tinnitus. Tinnitus is a bad thing, period!! It’s like saying, “I’m glad I became a paraplegic”.

In conclusion, stay away from India. Don’t think they EVER actually came out with a cure for something.

Stay strong my friend. Good things come to those who wait.

I thought the Tegretol helped cure you.

I can’t see anything good coming from tinnitus. Good things can come in life after getting tinnitus, but let’s face reality here folks. It’s like someone saying they are happy they lost their eyesight because they now appreciate their other senses more. Lol

Listen, you have to go one week WITHOUT plugging your ears or sitting in silence listening for it. I know it’s hard but try to forget it, perhaps it will then greatly lower its intensity. Helped for me once.

Just plug your ears to see if it is from outside source. Come on now!!

So, applying hot sauce on your head helped you with tinnitus! Yes, sounds VERY weird. Lol.

I feel for you. You are in my Prayers my friend. Just give it time, and maybe you can take benzodiazepines to help calm you down. It will lessen over time before you know it.

Congrats Ms Pagan girl. I would say I’m in the same boat as you. As long as it stays like it is we are golden. Let’s just be careful not to make it worse. And yes - Praying is king!!

Hello Kay. How u been feeling these days? I too have a hissing in my left ear. Loooong story to say the least. Can you hear your t in noisy environments? Yours is probably from the meds you are taking, and YES, that can be reduced.

If TRT doesn’t actually reduce the tinnitus volume, but helps people not think about it, then it’s just good ol' habituation happening. Maybe TRT is just a way to help some habituate. Me personally, if I had loud tinnitus, I know I would never habituate. Mine is very mild to moderate, and it...

“Lots of treatments”. Like what? AM-101. Lol.

That’s not what I meant... forget it. Lol

Yeah, another success story of a friend’s mother’s neighbor’s nephew.

I do like the idea of just not giving tinnitus any attention at all to rid yourself of it (habituate). However, one should still be cautious with attending loud venues, flying when having ear infections, certain ototoxic meds, etc. Otherwise ‘doing nothing’ can make one's tinnitus get worse...

That’s the dumbest thing I have read on here in a long time my friend. Lol.

If you're not better after a year or so, don’t count on it going away. Reality check my friend.

Dude. So what have they done to help your tinnitus? Absolutely nothing my friend. Don’t believe all the BS empty promises.

So, what have they actually accomplished since 10/15? A whole bunch of BS. Why do I feel like 10 years from now they will still be talking about new members of their ‘leadership Team’ Lol

Don’t you just love the stories of a person who knows a person who knows a person who’s tinnitus disappeared. Lol

Sounds like you need to be a little more selective with whom you associate with at work.

Perhaps keeping a stash of lidocaine can come in handy. You probably have to go to Mexico to buy it though.

Sounds like bull my friend. :(

Save the bullshit please. :(

That’s a tough question to answer. Unfortunately, no one knows for sure. I believe once someone has t, there whole hearing system is compromised, so I wouldn’t take any chances. Even though your t was caused by a cold, you still could have damage done by loud noise over the years, possible...

Perhaps your tinnitus is caused by neck nerve issues. Once your up, you move around, possible aggravating the nerve causing the ringing.

They say lidocaine administered intravenously diminishes tinnitus in about 70% of people from anywhere from 1 hour to 2 days. What if we teach ourselves how to self administer the stuff and keep an emergency supply on hand. Not to use everyday obviously, but just in case of an emergency where...

well, hopefully there will be no need for that. And perhaps there will be a cure for tinnitus soon. It’s that it seems almost too good to come true. How loud is your tinnitus?

@Suzerman when I say I know exactly how you feel, I’m not exaggerating!! As I type this I’m feeling anxious because my t is keeping me up. I try not to worry about the future and be grateful for what I have. That always helps me deal with the anxiety. I’ve had t for about 2.5 years, and it...

@Contrast sheeeett. We would be very fortunate if it was 5-15 years for hearing loss treatment. They been talkin about a cure for the last 100 years.....

@Bill Bauer Yes, be careful. As long as you don’t apply the stuff anywhere it can get easily absorbed into your system you’ll be fine. My t started out very mild, then in a few months it increases bit, a few months later went down to very mild again, and just recently increased a bit again...

@Bill Bauer hello Bill. I’m not sure I’m posting this correct. I’ll soon find out. I’m not too computer savvy , lol. I used a dab on each side of my septum twice a day for about two weeks, then for the first time in my life, I started hearing a crackling sound when people would speak to me...

I get occasional bouts of h, always in my right ear (surprisingly because my hiss is in my left). The good news is, it most likely will go away with time. Be ez on your ears, take antioxidants(I take nac daily) and just give it time. You’ll be fine

Hi, my name is Anthony and I have been dealing with this nasty b for about 2.5 years now. Thank GOD mine is mild, but it still scares the crap out of me for fears of it getting worse. I basically have 2 types of sounds- a slight left ear hiss and a central ring (although the last few months the...
