    Diclegis and Tinnitus

    Does anyone have any info on this drug? It's used as an anti-nausea drug for women during pregnancy. My wife is pregnant and started taking it and upon taking it, she said she felt like she was less nauseous but her ringing got louder. I can't seem to find much info on this. Can it cause...

    Who Can't Habituate or Can't Be Helped By TRT?

    Ok, before I go on, everyone I presume can read and understand the title. This thread is regarding habituation, TRT and anything related. So, for those who are tired of hearing about habituation, or get offended about having habituation "shoved" down their throats, then it's probably better to...

    When to accept its permanent?

    Dr Nagler, I've noticed that you've said to a few people that there is a chance their tinnitus may still go away. Sometimes (at the time of your saying this) the people may have had tinnitus for a few days or sometimes even a few months. But at what point should a person lose hope that it will...

    Habituation: No Action Required?

    I've seen some who are habituated say that no action is required, even if the tinnitus becomes louder. How true is this? Can someone who is habituated sit in a quiet room and read without turning on some type of environmental noise? If no, then it seems action is required. If yes, then how do...

    Suffering Again...

    Hi all, I used to be a regular here. My tinnitus gave me great distress when I first got it. But for some reason, it seemed to have disappeared after having it around 3 months. Since that time, it would come and go, but when it was there, it didn't bother me. It was more of an annoyance than...

    When Anxiety Hits...

    Dr Hubbard, I think a common questions a lot of us want to know is what should we do when we feel anxious? The problem is that often these feelings happen when we're alone, not in session. And sometimes they can happen during a time when we can't really help but be alone, e.g. it's midnight...

    Tinnitus and Fear of Noise (Misophonia)

    Dr. Nagler, Do people who have tinnitus have a greater risk of damaging their ears further by "regular" noise than someone who doesn't have tinnitus? I have noticed a lot of tinnitus sufferers get worried about things like watching movies, going to restaurants or hearing loud traffic. This is...

    Hearing Aids

    Dr Nagler, I'm sure this has been addressed before. But I was just wondering, since most experts believe tinnitus is a symptom of hearing loss, then why don't hearing aids help? I know human hearing is very complex and we don't understand everything. And I'm a simple minded guy. So in my simple...

    Tinnitus the Symptom and Habituation

    Dr Nagler, I really appreciate your time here helping us sufferers. It really shows that you're a very caring doctor. I've really enjoyed reading a lot of your material on your website about tinnitus. One interesting concept, and it makes a lot of sense to me, was that you said that since...

    Can Tinnitus Be Contagious?

    Dr Nagler, My wife got tinnitus about 2 weeks after me. I don't know why I have mine. But with hers, her doctor looked in her ears and said it was etd. Her doc also said it'd go away in a week but it's been over a month now. She has a follow up appointment tomorrow. But I'm just wondering if...

    Paranoid About Meds...

    Hi all, I am about to have my wisdom teeth removed soon. My dentists (supposedly) thinks there is a chance that my tinnitus might be due to my impacted wisdom teeth. Quite honestly, I'm not holding my breath for that one... but what does have me paranoid is all the meds I'll be put on...

    Has anything worked other than time?

    I've seens a few people here say that time is the best healer for tinnitus... is this because it gets easier to cope with or because it eases up? Has anyone here had any success with any treatments at all? I don't mean the success stories where your tinnitus just spontaneously goes away for...

    Ringing in my head...

    Hello, my name is Matt. I've had tinnitus for a little over a month now. It was a very rough start for me for the first two weeks, but since then, I've gotten to a point where it doesn't bother me so much that it gives me anxiety anymore. My tinnitus seemed to have come out of nowhere, and for...
