So, I went to my neighbor's 40th surprise birthday party two days ago, and it was pretty fun. There was a lot of alcohol, a lot of sentimentality, and, you guessed it, a lot of very loud music in a very small, stone space. Despite being pretty drunk and being within 20 ft of these speaker...

It'll probably be easier for me to deal with my tinnitus when the left side of my face (the left ear has a 10dB loss at 4kHz) stops feeling totally numb and dead. Anyone deal with this sensation for a long time, and have it go away? Did anything help you?

So I noticed something earlier, I had one 20 oz can of Red Bull and, when the caffeine, taurine, and guarana reached their peak concentrations in my body, the low-pitched T in my right ear became significantly quieter and became high-pitched. The effect went away within 30 minutes, so I went...

I had a dentists appointment this past Wednesday, and I asked my hygienist to check out my jaw. When moved sideways even slightly, it grinds and grates painfully on the left side (which is where my severe ear/jaw pain, burning, fullness and numbness are) and my severe bruxism has ground many of...

The ear that I possibly have hearing loss in is my left ear (10dB at 4kHz). While the T in my right (healthy, 0dB up til 16kHz) ear is 10x louder, my left ear (and that side of my face) feels like it's been blasted off my head by a shotgun, like there is no sensory input from that ear, jaw half...

Honestly, at this point in my adventure with T, I really just want to know why, specifically, I have it. As is the case with a few other users here, I have very minimal hearing loss at subclinical levels that does not have any effect on my ability to detect faint sound at great distance or in...

I do not have hyperacusis. I have T in both ears. My hearing loss levels are minimal, but my left ear hurts SO badly. It feels "dead" and numb inside, maybe a little pressurized, sort of like your skin does when you get mild frostbite. It's felt like this for a year. The ear also crackles A LOT...

Biting down hard on food using my whole mouth, I hear a HORRIBLY loud ring in my left ear. Biting down using the RIGHT side of my mouth ONLY, I hear NO RINGING AT ALL. 0%. Biting down using the LEFT side of my mouth ONLY, which has a lot of wear on the teeth compared to the right, I hear a...

So I've been seeing an allergist lately in an attempt to get some relief from my long-standing deathly environmental allergies. The first week I saw him, he looked in my ears when I mentioned I had T, and he said there was a little bit of pressure in there and that my bad "T" ear had a tiny bit...

So I have T in both ears, two different sounds, and I've read that it's common for people with T to have these spikes, and they're even common when you don't have T. But when I chew, swallow, move my head, or tense my neck in any way (even to the right) I ONLY get a T increase on my LEFT side...

I've never been to a concert in my life, whenever I've been exposed to loud noises I've protected my ears, with a few exceptions, but nothing extreme like a gunshot or explosion. I used to use earbuds, but no more than any other person my age, and I didn't blast them at max volume for hours on...

On antidepressants since I was 12, initially started because of bullying, social isolation, and mild depression. They hollowed out my whole personality, making me go numb to the world. During this "numb" period I played lots of videogames, while wearing headphones, losing my social skills and...

...is knowing just how little research attention hearing loss and other audiological issues are given. Despite the many, MANY millions of people that suffer from things like hearing loss, tinnitus, and meniere's it often feels like big pharma, investors, and medical researchers just toss...

My left ear has a maximum hearing loss of 15db, and my right ear is almost perfect. Both have tinnitus, the left is a buzz and a fluctuating ring, like ayyyAAAAAyyAAAy, and the left has your classic EEEEEE. The left ear has felt like someone stuffed cotton wool in it for over three months now...

So I'm lucky enough to be very close to Mass Eye and Ear, and I'm dissatisfied with the lack of curiousity that ENTs and audiologists have shown in my case so far so I'm looking to go further to see if there's anything I can do to mitigate the pain. I still have a lot of questions that are...
