    Ear Rings Like After Hearing a Gunshot — Anyone Else?

    I’ve been pressing on and not been here on in a while... I have to ask if anyone experiences this. I still have my severe tinnitus from the MRI, and hyperacusis and throbbing ear pain... but the odd thing is my right ear will get ringing (not the loud hiss I have 24/7) like after a gunshot, or...

    Has Anyone Ever Sued Someone for Causing Tinnitus?

    How would one ever prove that tinnitus happened or got worse due to the actions or inactions of another? I didn’t know MRIs were so loud, even though a simple internet search would have clued me in. Yes, I feel stupid for not checking and taking it for granted. The tech didn’t give me a panic...
