This is my success story: It was four years ago that I got tinnitus from an ototoxic medicine. At first, it wasn’t much of an “eeeee…eeee”, and I could tolerate it. But eventually it became a major issue when I got a sinus infection. Then it became much louder. I couldn’t bare it, finding it...

Many religions have written about miracles performed by prophets. In the old days, religious prophets could cure major illnesses. "Zap!" and people who were blind regained their sight. Miracles and stuff like that. But did any of these prophets cure tinnitus? Was tinnitus even around 2000...

Have any of you noticed an increase in tinnitus loudness after eating citrus? Last night, after having a lemon flavored drink, my tinnitus was really loud. This really bummed me out, because I've been doing pretty good lately. I read a book, "Tinnitus Miracle", which stated that citrus will...

I have just two words, (actually, one word and a number) which brings the common man to his knees: "Windows 8". How I hate this operating system. What was going on at Microsoft when this thing happened? Bill Gates, where are you? Do you see what happened after you left, Bill? Is anyone in...

HEAR THAT?: Draper Laboratory in Cambridge, Mass., is fleshing out a concept for a small delivery device that can provide relief to tinnitus sufferers. The device would be inserted near the membrane-covered window separating the middle ear from the inner ear and release medication into the...

It was sometime in late high school that I discovered how important science is to me. Religion has never really appealed to me, despite the fact I was raised going to church. My wife and I have met some wonderful people at church, but I still stew away in the pews. Growing up, especially as a...

I am re-reading "Tinnitus Retraining Therapy" by Jastreboff and Haskell. This second time around, I notice how much my understanding of the tinnitus differs from these experts. They make the following statement: "Tinnitus beats with external sounds does not occur". Oh yeah? This seems to...

For most of us, our tinnitus is due to hearing loss. I have read that 27.4% of people over the age of 64 have some tinnitus. Although my own hearing is normal, I have loss at 4KHz and 10KHz. My tinnitus was initially a pure tone of 4KHz in my right ear. Many audiologists say that by using...

Several puns/quotes: 1. Do not argue with an idiot. He will drag you down to his level and beat you with experience. 2. The last thing I want to do is hurt you. But it's still on my list. 3. Light travels faster than sound. This is why some people appear bright until you hear them speak. 4. If I...

Today I saved someone's life. I was walking to work and stopped at a corner with a red light. A young man, wearing headphones was next to me. He started walking into the street and I saw a bus coming at him at about 30 mph. I screamed at him, and he stepped back, just as the bus was about to...

Just out of curiosity: Does anybody have tinnitus that is quieter first thing in the morning? Many times mine is much quieter when I wake up. I should probably count myself as fortunate, I suppose. My tinnitus begins to increase in loudness in the morning while I watch the TV news when I'm...

Yesterday I found an interesting sound therapy device called "Tinnitus Therapy". (Ok...let me see how I can show you a photo,...this is new to me,...I think it's right here...yes, here it is...click this button...and Tah dah!) You can download Tinnitus Tamer for 14 days free use. To...

Before I got tinnitus, I didn't know much about it. I remember reading a novel, "The Emmigrants", where one of the characters was kicked in his ear when he was a kid, after which he had tinnitus the rest of his life. That was about all I knew about tinnitus: A character in a book. I have read...

My tinnitus started in my right ear in December. After 5 months, my left ear has also developed tinnitus. It also seems that in my right ear the tinnitus may be diminishing. (I say "seems", because it is really hard to gauge this subjectively.) I think that my tinnitus may be age related...
