    Hi Shaun, I am currently taking 100 mg of Tegretol for the same issue every night. I started yesterday. How did it go for your hyperacusis and trigeminal nerve pain?

    Tinnitus for 7 Years Has Gotten Worse

    Hi everyone, I've had tinnitus since 2010 when I was 13. I can't remember much about the habituation process but I remember it wasn't too bad. I spent the past 7 years pretty much living my life as normal, and going to sleep was fine. This was the only time I would hear my t, is when I would...
