Decided to start a thread for just random chat, pics, quotes etc. Somewhere to go for a catch up with members, express how you are feeling wether good or bad. A safe place as such :) All I ask is be respectful of each other, be kind. I’d like to keep the “heated debates” and “arguments” to a...

I’ve had many many embarrassing moments shall we say from falling out of a dressing room trying some pants on with my arse hanging in the air to cupping some mature lady's boob in a supermarket by accident :eek: Today I was taking my doggo for his usual walk in this lovely field I go to...

Hey guys, I’ve had a cold and with it came a blocked right ear and a new noise (which sounds like a electric kettle being used or it could be a weird hiss I’m not sure) the volume is crazy, like hear over shower crazy. I’m extremely paranoid that this may be my new permanent sound as it all...

Apologies in advance for the length and the fact this may not be the most well written of posts. I was taking a break from this site as I have some personal issues I have to deal with and need to give my full energy and concentration to them but after my ENT appointment today I feel the need...

I’ve been reading a lot on beekeeping lately (sad I know) it’s always interested me, and since my social life has slowed dramatically :rolleyes: I’ve beeeee-n thinking about maybe... possibly... taking it up as a hobby. Does anybody have any knowledge or has ever done beekeeping?

I’ve been trying to work out how I got tinnitus. I had a severe cold and chest infection that lasted a while, my ears hurt and my jaw during most of it. I was in the shower and my ear popped and I went dizzy for about 30secs or so and I had a really sharp pain. A day later the ringing started...

Afternoon or morning or evening everybody. I was just wondering if anybody gets a new tone and spike if their ears pops randomly? I’ve noticed that when mine pops (which it can a lot totally randomly) I get a new tone or spike for a few hours. one occasion when it popped I got this morse code...

Not sure why I’m posting this? I’ve met such lovely people on here and just want to thanks everybody for their encouragement, kinds words and banter. I’m going to take a few weeks break from here, I’ve had an absolute f@##@# of a week. Went back to work which was an absolute disaster and it...

Anybody doing anything interesting this bank holiday? I thought I was going away for a nice long weekend, that’s been scrapped now, so... I need to live through other people’s exciting lives this weekend.

Since I can remember I’ve always been a person who likes to keep fit. In school I was in the rugby team and rowing team before I got this “gift” I was at the gym 5 days a week, did a mixture of cardio and weight lifting, went for nice long walks, biked a lot, did boxing (only to keep fit not...

Evening everybody I’ve had tinnitus for over 3 months, I guess you could say I’m getting used to it (even though I still have my down days) but what I’ve noticed is I seem to be anxious at night sometimes, especially if I’m by myself. My partner is working away till Monday and during the day...

I’m looking to book a holiday in the next few months and unsure of where to go? I’ve been to a lot of varied places and normally love to go skiing but with my tinnitus I’m wary of skiing as don’t want a bad fall and it affecting me (I know this could happen anywhere I go but at this present time...

I’ve noticed that if I sit a certain way sometimes I get a spike followed by my ear blocking, the spike normally goes in about 10-20 seconds but my ear still feels blocked for a good time later (which makes me anxious) It doesn’t always happen when I sit in that particular position. It also...

Afternoon everybody. I got tickets for the lion king as birthday present for my partner in May, I booked a hotel for the weekend and arranged a few other bits as well. I’ve seen the show once before and remember it being a bit loud even before my tinnitus. I’m bit concerned as I wouldn’t want...

hi guys. I’ve been to visit the doctors today (4th time) as I was looking to get an ENT appointment just to check that there’s nothing sinister causing my tinnitus. This is the 3rd doctor I have seen and again they keep telling me that it will go away as they think it’s to do with my sinuses...

Evening everybody. As it’s been snowing heavily and cold here in the UK I’ve had the heating on more than usual. I’ve noticed today my ears seem to feel a lot more full and the ringing in my ears seems slightly higher. I noticed this at the end of January as well when I had been in the house...

Evening everybody. Looking for a bit of advice, I used to love reading and since I’ve had this tinnitus I’ve found it impossible to concentrate due to the noise. I used to read in complete silence and I’ve tried to put some noise in the background but my mind only concentrates on the bloody...

Hello to everyone and hope we are all doing good I’m not the best writer or putting my feelings into words so I apologise if this is scatted. Only had T little over 2 months and I feel a bit of a fraud as mine is not as bad as a good few of you.... it’s still one of the worse things I have...

hello everybody I was just wondering does anybody else's tinnitus spike louder when their ear pops. My ears have just randomly popped a few times the last 2 days and my tinnitus increases in sound which also seems a lot fuller ( the spike last about 10-15 mins) I get a sharp pain as well that...

Hi all, hope we are all feeling ok today. As I seem to have had this cold/chesty off on and off for two months am I ok to use olbas oil or Vicks in some hot water and inhale? My right ear seems to feel more full the last few days with a weird hiss and slight ringing, I’m worried if using olbas...

Firstly I just want to state I genuinely feel for anybody who has tinnitus and pray daily for everyone. I’ve had tinnitus since I had a cold/chest infection December time. It’s been just over 2 months now and I’ve got this hissing/ringing in both ears but it sometimes changes to sound like a...

Hi everybody. I previously did a post regarding how I got my ringing in my ears. I’ve had a ringing in my ears since I had a bad cold and chest infection (just over a month). My doctor won’t send me the ENT as she says it will clear in a few months. My ringing spikes when I yawn, put pressure...

Hi everybody. I had a bad cold and chesty cough around Christmas 2017, while I was in the shower my left ear popped and I went dizzy for a while. I also had a ear ache befor that and a pain on the left side of my jaw. Around the 27th I noticed this ringing in my left ear, it’s made me so...
