    Steroids: Prednisone / Dexamethasone / Others (Oral and Intratympanic Injections)

    I want to warn people who are thinking of trying intratympanic steroid injections. As I have mentioned in this thread a couple of years ago I did and it didn't cure my tinnitus (it is actually much worse now). The injections are totally useless IMHO and it can damage inner ear. Don't do it...

    New Ear Infection Exploding Tinnitus

    Since yesterday I have got extreme worse Tinnitus (already existing 3 years) in a couple of hours. It began with pain in my right ear and then it blocked completely my hearing in a couple of seconds, I thought this can be sudden deafness? My left ear isn’t affected now. Because the pain in the...

    Prednisone Infusion... Intratympanic Injection...

    Hope you're right dear glynis. Today T is bit reduced. Before the injections I had very very silent mornings but now even if I sleep 10 hours T is still the same. Just hoping it will be 0/0 T someday! I experienced almost 3 weeks 0/0 T just before the dex-it. And that is conufusing me. I asked...

    Prednisone Infusion... Intratympanic Injection...

    The unbelievable part is that after the first injection in right ear has caused loud T in left ear. The ENT said it's very strange and couldn't explain it. Since then my left ear is ringing 24/7 and also reactive to loud sounds. I'm scared....back of to the start of loud T 5 months ago. Hope...

    So i want to update: After 2 weeks of intravenous prednisolon my T reduced by almost 70-80 %. How is it possible? Does prednison works slowly? I decided also to go for the intratympanic injections and have 2 sessions done. Session 1: no change in T, pain from injection and diziness for 3...

    Intratympanic Steroid Injection Increasing Pulsatile Tinnitus

    Yesterday I have started the intratympanic injection to on my right ear. This morning second shot with metylprednison.

    Yes, he said that it's a little bit to late and each other day I lose time and he can't promise me to get full relief. but recommends to go for it as it can do no harm to my ears (normal infusion has more and more side effects and risks said the ENT). I am really thinking it's not gonna help...

    @glynis I hope so! @Sailboardman Thanks for sharing your experience! Very bad that it didn't helped anything. The ENT highly recommends to do the intratypmanic steroid injection (prednison).

    Prednisone Infusion... Intratympanic Injection...

    Thanks for your reaction Paul. It's a very difficult decission that I have to make tonight. This is so stressfull! The intratympanic infusion directly in ears is scary to think about. What if I get deaf or my normal hearing will damage. This will stop my life.

    Thanks glynis. I am back in Holland since yesterday night. It's 2.5 hours driving to Germany from here. I think I will do it again and go for the second round of the presdnison infusion. What a hell of illness is this my life is ruined nearly. Nothing helps doctors don't guarantee anything...

    Prednisone Infusion... Intratympanic Injection...

    The main question for me now is: should I take the extra 5 infusions of prednisolon? The first 5 infusions past week didn't do anything positive. I don't want to try the other option (intratympanic). I need your advice please.

    I'm in Germany now and got 5 days prednisolon steroid injection. It has no effect at all. The doctor says maybe the steroids will work in the weekend much better and I have to think about my last option: intratympanic injection of steroids with a needle in my eardrums. Because my T is 3,5 months...

    Chlorella and Tinnitus

    Some doctors are saying it's not safe to take chlorella when you have dental amalgam fillings. Is this right? They advice to take amalgams out first before you take chlorella.

    Zinc for Treating Tinnitus

    I'm taking zinc 22mg since 3 days (1 tablet each day). I don't know if this is a placebo or something but I really see a difference in the loudness of my T. If I have to rate it: from 8/10 to 4/10 I hope it's not a placebo thing!!

    Help — Took Tramadol (Ultram) — Ringing Started

    I was taking also this tramadol drug for ear ache because of an ear infection and after 2 days I got T. I stopped immediatly with tramadol but now since 2 months ringing is 24/7 non stop. I thougt first the eardrops caused T but now I think it's the tramadol.

    Autifony Therapeutics Phase II Study for AUT00063, for the Treatment of Hearing Loss and Tinnitus

    I hope you are right and we will get this drug soon! I have a tonal T. The sad thing is that only autifony is recruiting people in the UK. The rest of Europe is sleeping.....they want to earn money with TRT and benzo's in place of finding that something is really helping us.

    Autifony Therapeutics Phase II Study for AUT00063, for the Treatment of Hearing Loss and Tinnitus

    How do you know it will work for 100% do you have proof? Does this statement includes all types of T? When do you think it will be on the market, 2020 for example?

    Autifony Therapeutics Phase II Study for AUT00063, for the Treatment of Hearing Loss and Tinnitus

    Money helps everything... money makes the world go round. I think this cure will come faster if there is more money. If we count the money we've spend on supplements, benzo's etc it will go up to billions which we could beter invest in this research. Sorry for my bad English.
