A short history. 3 1/2 years ago I experienced what they call SSHL (Sudden Sensorineural Hearing Loss). One night for no apparent reason I lost 100% hearing in my right ear, leaving me with significant tinnitus inside the dead ear. It's the loud hissing static untuned radio noise with some...

It's been two months now since my sudden total hearing loss in right ear and subsequent onset of tinnitus. I was treated right away with oral prednisone for 3 weeks followed by steroid injections into the middle ear. I recently had my final followup visit with ENT to go over the results. The...

In previous posts I have described how I have suffered complete loss of hearing in my right ear along with significant tinnitus. I also described how external sound/noise entering my left (good ear) has a dramatic effect on the intensity of my tinnitus. An example is, I can't tolerate being...

Maybe I should just browse more, but I have a question, or maybe it's more of a comment. It seems that a very many participants of the forum have a type of tinnitus that is acquired differently than mine. I have been reading a lot of posts and it seems that most of you had some kind of "cause"...
