    Are AcousticSheep's SleepPhones Safe for Tinnitus?

    Hi Michael, Sorry I took a while to reply. Thank you for your advice . I agree, we have to be particularly careful the use of headphones. I seem to have found compromise; I can certainly set sleep phones on a timer to go off after one hour. That way I should drift to sleep with them on but...

    Are AcousticSheep's SleepPhones Safe for Tinnitus?

    Hi Michael, Hi Michael, many thanks for your input here. It seems nothing in life can be done without the risk of worsening T. I live in fear that any think I do, listen to, or ingest ( A paracetamol for example) could make it worse. It's a sorry state of affairs. I have an injection for...

    Are AcousticSheep's SleepPhones Safe for Tinnitus?

    Hi guys, I use the AcousticSheep's SleepPhones head band with white noise to sleep at night. They work pretty well. I am just concerned that constantly pumping sound into my ears all night long isn't going to make the tinnitus worse in the long run. I don't play too loud and they are...

    What Can I Do to Reverse Ototoxicity from Sertraline?

    Hello Lebber, Thanks very much for taking the time to reply. To clarify, are you saying that it is likely that it will EVENTUALLY go? I'm not asking you to commit to any answer it's just I can't get any answers from doctors! If I knew it would last six months let's say, but would eventually...

    What Can I Do to Reverse Ototoxicity from Sertraline?

    Hi guys, I'm getting pretty frustrated and desperate with my tinnitus and I'm simply not getting much traction with the GP. My tinnitus was triggered after starting Sertraline. Unbelievably, I only took the drugs for 12 days at a very low dose before stopping as the ringing appeared...

    Can Nytol Actually Worsen Tinnitus?

    Thanks, it is so distressing to feel that any drug has the potential to make it worse. It just feels like a total minefield and I feel so I'm so mistrusting of any prescription drugs. I think melatonin Will be the only one I am now willing to try. Thanks

    Is Melatonin Definitely Safe? It Won't Exacerbate Tinnitus?

    Hi guys, Can anyone give me any reassurance that melatonin is definitely safe and will not exacerbate tinnitus in any way? Are people sure that melatonin is definitely not ototoxic? I just need to be 100 percent sure. I am really having trouble sleeping and even Nytol seems to have made my...

    Can Nytol Actually Worsen Tinnitus?

    Hi all, In desperation I have taken a Nytol tonight to try and induce sleep as my tinnitus has been preventing me sleeping a lot. It was originally triggered by Sertraline by the way. Since taking it 3 hours ago I genuinely feel that the tinnitus is LOUDER! For god's sake! Are there ANY...

    Severe Sleep Deprivation

    Hi guys, thank you all so much for your support here. It's really helpful to know I'm not alone in this, especially at 4 am when the nightly panic sets in. I think I will look into Melatonin as globally it seems to get very positive reviews. The lack of sleep is just getting silly now so...

    Severe Sleep Deprivation

    Hi all, This is my first post (on any forum ever). I am 8 weeks into Tinnitus and at the point of desperation. It was triggered by Sertraline which I stopped using after just 12 days. I have done all the usual; white noise, sleep phones, attempts at relaxation and mindfulness etc. But I simply...
