Hey folks... It's been a while since I have been here... I am sure many of you new guys are wondering how us sufferers could ever not come here everyday but the truth is that in many cases your tinnitus improves to a slight degree (it should stabilize... at night it used to go crazy when I would...

Yup I have read many posts on going to movies and I hate to make another one. Any idea how loud the dB range is in the theatre?

Hey guys....just wanted to say thank you all for your support. It has been extremely helpful and has without a doubt gotten me to almost back to the life I knew. I also wanted to add I attended my 3rd wedding this weekend with no issues. I have 3 more for the year to attend which includes my...

I am sure throughout the years you have weeks where it seems you cant avoid loud noises. Just today I was riding along and I was forced to stop and some idiot in the other lane honked his horn while my window was open. I am fine but def feel sore in that left ear. I am sure I will be fine...

Hello to all... I was curious to all my non-American friends here how the health care system is in your country. Can you see a doctor immediately when you need to or do you wait weeks or months? Is it cheap or very expensive? Is the quality of care excellent? Here in the US it has been a big...

So I started off the cocktail hour with my custom musician ear plugs and the 15 dB reduction. That did well but when it came time to enter the main dining room the music was that around the 100 dB level. What seemed to start to bother me was more the bass than anything else. My right ear...

It's the same tone but it seems to be going beep, beep, beep in my left ear. Anyone experience this? Almost like an on and off. :(

Maybe I am just paranoid but after some brief accidental loud noise incidents I feel like my sensitivity to sound is increasing. It's possible I am being paranoid or becoming more aware of certain things but after a couple of incidents today I feel like I just need to be away from sound for a...

http://www.chrissingletonmusic.com/blog/2007/6/7/a-world-turned-up.html Based on this musicians ability to overcome hyperacusis it seems he listened to white noise out of various volumes. How can this be done when you have tinnitus as well? I don't want to make my situation worse and does...

So I wrote to a musician I am a big fan of recently and here is what I wrote: I'm a big fan of yours and luv your playing. Unfortunately in September I ended up getting Tinnitus after playing. I never knew the seriousness of this condition. I am not blaming you but i wish that in your lessons...

Hey guys... was in a cab yesterday and the driver turned on his radio and it was on full blast. I covered up my ears right away. Probably was exposed for like a second. I don't think I have a spike but definitely feel like something isn't right. Maybe my balance has been effected. It's def not...

I have noticed throughout my time with T I get sensations of my hearing going in and out from from left ear to the right (not even sure if that is actually happening) or a random slight pinch (not at all painful) type feeling inside the ear. Today I felt this weird warm sensation in my left...

I was curious based on what i have read about the mice that were cured using vagus stimulation if you could use something like the general fuzz ACRN website and then while listening just stimulate the vagus nerve by humming or splashing cold water on your face. In theory its seems it could...

Hey guys. Just looking to see if any of you guys have noticed somthing like this after you were at a catered event with a DJ blasting music at around 100 dbs. I was at this event today and i had my ear plugs on of course. They are custom fitted musician ear plugs and i had the 30 db filter in...

Last night i woke up not because of my T but because i felt hot in my legs and feet...specificly the areas touching my bed...my legs and feet were cool to the touch but felt hot and this has carried over into today...feels like im sitting on a heating pad at work

My first question is regarding anti-inflammatories...has anybody tried a diet that consists in having as much of it as possible? Reason i ask is because many people including myself have gotten good results from taking the often prescribed predisone...it seems that by taking this the T and...

Ok this place is terrible for ears... I wear ear plugs on the subway and when I am on the streets I put tissue in my ears just to muff out the sounds... I don' t want to baby my ears too much... the problem I am noticing are these restaurants.. .they all play music at 90-95 debibels... it's...

Although my tinnitus is usually pretty mild I tend to prefer to have some sound around me in quiet locations... since I am attending a class I can't just set my iPhone to a low volume... Can anybody give me the type of headphones that they use in situations like this? Thanks.

Took the methylprednisolone today... I was doing fine and then I accidentally slammed a stack of paper too hard against my desk and now I have a hiss in my more sensitive ear! I was going to discontinue the use of the drug because of the jitters it gave me but now I feel like I gotta take it. So...

Tried an experiment using sound proof ear muffs but noticed the sound waves still had an effect on my ears... Does ear plugs solve this issue? Does time heal this? Thanks

I saw an ENT today. Hearing is normal and I was prescribed cortisone... My symptoms have really been decreasing this week... Not a lot of noises going on during the day but it does come back at night... I heard cortisone has actually made tinnitus worse in some situations... is this true and...

Normally I wouldnt be writing if i didnt have a change in my situation which i actually do but am unsure how to feel about it.... so on saturday (official 1 week anniversary) my T was annoying as usual...I then learned about residual inhibition and found a clip of a sound similar to my T...it...

I just play it for a few seconds and the T subsides...lasts for a lil but it definitly has dropped off...was focused on right side and ear but now is on my left side and much lighter... Can anybody explain this? My T is a week old but I think this clip is helping so much.

Hello everybody!! So i am 30 years old and play drums (not professionally)...throughout the years i have wore protection but of course every once in a while played a little without anything on for a short period of time.... sadly without understanding the true risks of tinnitus i found myself...
