    Tinnitus Spiked from the Shower (Water Going Directly Into My Ear)

    Hi @Hardwell, Thanks for asking. It actually settled down early in the evening. Yesterday was a pretty good day. But last night and today it seems to be spiking a bit. I think the shower caused a temporary spike only. At the same time I'm stopping anxiety meds (which is one of the candidates...

    Tinnitus Spiked from the Shower (Water Going Directly Into My Ear)

    Hi, While in the shower this morning I bent down and got quite a lot of water going directly into my ear. And I mean directly into the ear, probably for about 20 or 30 seconds. I didn't really think much about it at the time as I obviously shower every day and it's never caused a spike in the...

    Antidepressants (SSRIs, SNRIs, MAOs, TCAs, TeCAs)

    I've developed tinnitus 2 weeks after taking Duloxetine (Cymbalta) for other reasons, so am thinking about stopping. I'm a bit confused as it's sometimes used for treating tinnitus. Anyone else develop tinnitus after taking it?

    Tinnitus from Diabetes/Peripheral Neuropathy or Duloxetine/Cymbalta?

    Thanks Michael, Your reply has raised a question in my mind. I’m currently (just about) managing to get sleep at night by listening to ‘tinnitus blocking’ background noise videos on YouTube. I’m using headphones for this as the noise will keep my wife awake. I’ve been trying to dial the sound...

    Tinnitus from Diabetes/Peripheral Neuropathy or Duloxetine/Cymbalta?

    Hi everyone, I'm new to the forum. About 4 weeks ago I developed what doctors think is peripheral neuropathy. That's still being investigated, I'm a type 1 dianetic (although quite well controlled so it's a bit of a mystery). The doctor has subsequently put me on Duloxetine to manage pain...
