Hey, After a really horrendous pain spike just over a week ago, we decided that I should stay in an Airbnb somewhere quiet for a few weeks to try and calm my system down. I have two young children and a dog, and I live on a main road, so there is constant noise in my house. For various reasons...

Hi everyone, it’s me again! Last night, I slept on my left side (with earmuffs on). When I woke up, I had low-pitched fleeting tinnitus in my left ear, which eventually faded. However, today, I’ve been experiencing a vibrating-type sound in my ear every time I hear a noise or even when I move...

I'm hoping to get some help from the lovely members of Tinnitus Talk. I had recovered from tinnitus, which started in October 2019 and lived a relatively normal life (no bars, clubs, headphones, or gigs) until May 2023. My recovery took about 18 months, and I was fortunate to be home all the...

Hi all! I hope everyone is doing as well as possible. I thought it might be helpful to start a parent thread for those of us who have little ones—somewhere to share parenting experiences with tinnitus/hyperacusis, tips on staying safe, etc! I have a three-year-old toddler and a 12-week-old...

Hello all, Last November my tinnitus which I was totally habituated to got much worse after a noisy weekend. At the time I was distraught but now I would happily go back to that increase. My symptoms are just getting worse and worse. The tinnitus itself rarely bothers me but I now also have: -...

Does anyone have experience of this? For example, we usually sleep with a fan on in summer and I’ve been looking forward to putting it on as I thought it would help mask at night. But the sound of the fan seems to trigger off a louder underlying noise in my ears so I can’t tolerate it at all...

Hello all, Just wondering if anyone has any experience with Alan Hopkirk? I am currently on a virtual group therapy session with him and he seems very good and knowledgeable. I would be keen to know people’s thoughts as I am considering contacting him for private treatment. Thanks x

Hi All Without going into details I’ve had tinnitus for 10 years or so but very mild. About 6 months ago it got a lot worse but I had been feeling much better recently. The past few days I have been noticing that I’m sensitive to noise and today it’s been hell; every noise seems so loud and...

Has anyone any experience with Mrs Bateman? Her CV and testimonials look promising and I’m at my wits' end with my ENT who has no specialist knowledge of tinnitus at all. The only problem is that she is based in Herts and I’m in the north of England. Wondered if anyone had any good or bad...

Something I have only noticed since my tinnitus got worse two months ago and I have started protesting my hearing, is how unnecessarily loud places are! I’m only 32 but realise this makes me sound a lot older! Tonight I went to my old spin class for the first time since tinnitus got worse and...

Hello All I am wondering / hoping if anyone with more knowledge than me can help me understand why my tinnitus has got so much worse. I’ve had tinnitus for ten plus years in both ears at a very mild level and had fully habituated. It was never noisy enough for me to hear other than in bed...

Hi All Not sure if this is the right place to post so please accept my apologies if not. I have lived with tinnitus for over ten years after developing it following an ear infection when I was 21. In all honesty it has never really bothered me that much, I think I was lucky that it was quiet...
