    Anyone Else with the Static Steam Hissing?

    Lately the static type hissing in my right ear has been annoying me. I have a classic tonal tinnitus in both ears (more loud in the left), a "wind" noise in my left, and a static hiss that can sort of wind itself around and sometimes sounds chopped up like a morse code in my right ear. Just...

    ssssssss.......sssssss.s..ssss...ssss..ss.s.ssssss

    I hate that little hiss. Mine is pretty tame but not so tame that I don't notice it throughout the day. If I listen for it I can always hear that little ssssssss..s.sss.s..sssss....sssssssssss.ssss and of course it's not steady, more of a random hiss, in and out. I've been "aware" that it's a...

    How Weird Would It Be If We All Got Cured from Tinnitus?

    Now and then I notice a very brief, complete silence in my ear and then the T starts up again. That brief millisecond is very quiet. It makes me wonder how shocked we all would be if we really got rid of our T sounds 100%? I bet there are sounds/tones/hisses/rumbles we don't even know we have...

    Hello 2034, Enjoy the Silence!

    I just chose 2034 at random. But, I wonder if someday this board will be archived and people will visit it to see how people dealt with their tinnitus before the cure was available to the public in 2034? If so, I hope I've taken the pill/injection/scan/whatever by now! I'll try and reply to this...

    Low Rumble Is Pulsatile Tinnitus

    I find that when I stand up out of bed my ears get the blood flow whooshing sound for about 10-30 seconds that then turns into a low, bass rumble. This makes me think that the bass/rumbling sound some people have (myself included) is related to pulsatile tinnitus or, maybe more precisely...

    Can You Make Your Hiss Louder by Stressing Your Jaw?

    If I stress my jaw (not sure how else to say it) I make the hiss in my right ear 1000x louder. Anyone else have that same thing?

    Hissing Sound Exacerbated by Air Conditioner?

    I have a bit of the hissing T in my right ear and I find that it can be made worse or at least more noticeable when I sit near my air conditioner. The AC is on the wall to my left when I watch TV and sometimes (not all the time depending on who knows what) the right hear hiss gets crazy loud and...

    Anyone Else Have This Blood Rushing Sound?

    When I stand up out of bed in the morning I hear what I believe to be the blood rushing around my left ear pretty loudly and then it slowly dissipates. And sometimes when lying down or just sitting in a chair I can hear it very lightly, sounds sort of like a light fan in the room. I can...

    Not Sure If This Is Pulsatile Tinnitus or Not, Still Weird

    Since 7/1/15, when my cold started, I have had a weird vibrating hum in my left ear. It has gotten a lot better over the course of the last two weeks and my cold is gone now too. But the vibrating hum still clings to life. I realize that based on those facts it would seem obvious that the hum is...

    Reading for Pleasure — Can You Still Do It?

    I have to sit in a quiet office and read and write all day for work but, that's work. I have not laid in bed and read a book for personal pleasure since my T hit me. It's too scary. I hate quiet rooms and the thought of lying in one while reading spooks me and makes me feel like I'd be...

    Do You Own a Gun?

    I own a gun for self-defense and home defense purposes. But I'm thinking about selling it because I don't think I would ever want to shoot the gun and suffer the repercussions on my hearing now that I've got T. I mean unless I was able to somehow slip on some very protective muffs before I was...

    Weird Head-Hum During Cold

    My cold started around 7/2 and on 7/3 I developed a weird sort of vwoom, vwoom, vwoom, sound in my left ear. It got pretty loud (I have regular tinnitus too and this was way louder). A week later it has dissipated for sure but it's still there and goes away briefly when I make sounds (talk...

    Should I Cancel CT Scan?

    I have the blood rushing sound when I get out of bed and sometimes just lying there in bed etc. It's not THAT bad and frankly it hasn't caused me much distress as it sort of made sense that I would hear blood in that area when moving around (at least to me it did). And it's not the splashing...

    Hey Now!

    So I thought I would join this forum board because after browsing anonymously I see it is more supportive than negative. I can't deal with negative stuff as I give myself enough of that on my own so I hope this is a pleasant experience. I'm 38 (pretty much 39, so basically 40). I have a steady...
