You are at the right place now. So take advantage of all the doctors and nurses there to help you. I am sure you will be feeling much better soon. Keep positive and think of all the great things in your life. I wish you luck and lots of quiet times ahead.

Hi everybody, Hoping everybody is having a peaceful day. Was just curious about the herb/ vitamin Feverfew, of late I have developed migraine and headaches symptoms which at times can be very hard to deal with. I am not a huge fan of any synthetic type medication as I prefer to go the natural...

I totally get how you are feeling as my tinnitus does exactly the same thing. Thankfully today is a low tinnitus day, but on the days that it is louder I find peace in a quiet room also. I wonder what this is all about? Does anybody have any answers? Miss Lavender.

Thank you this is a very encouraging post, it gives us hope and hope at this stage is all we have.

Thank you everybody for your help, I thought that it may probably be safe but as we all know it is easy to get a little anxious when it comes to Tinnitus. @ Dr Nagler the name of the antibiotic is chloramphenicol. Miss lavender.

Hello all, Was just wondering if anybody has any advice for me? This morning I needed to get some antibiotics for my eye, do you think this may affect my tinnitus in any way? One type of drop is a steroid and the other is an antibiotic. Thank you Miss lavender.

Wow good for you @valeri. Let us know how you go. Good luck!

That's great, hope your tinnitus stays low for good. Maybe you have accidentally found something that may help some of us, tinnitus is the strangest thing......

@ATEOS, on the contrary I am all about honesty and sincerity etc. I guess this is why I put my two cents in. In fact I love reading your posts as you have a wealth of information and I have a lot of respect for what you say and what you are trying to do here on TT. I guess I also have respect...

I totally agree that we are all entitled to our own opinions, but why should bickering, sarcasm and in some cases hatred be allowed here on this board? Is there not a better way to deal with our differing opinions? This forum is filled with many intelligent individuals who truly care for one...

@walkthroughwalls I know you mean no harm in your response and thank you all,the same. But I think you have totally misunderstood the meaning behind my posts. Perhaps I am not very good at explaining myself and sometimes written form can be misunderstood so I would just like to say that I mean...

@NiNyu, I am not trying anything at all I simply made a comment about your thread. The majority of us on this board believe it to be a support forum so indeed I believe that the aim of our threads is to help and encourage each other. We are all suffering to some degree so to add a negative vibe...

I simply don't see the point of your thread. Tell me again how this helps us as a tinnitus community?

I don't want to appear nasty or insensitive because I am neither of these things, but what is the point of your thread? People know how they feel about their tinnitus situation why do they care to share such information. Again this does not help anybody. Why not ask a more positive question that...

Hi Rina, in my experience going to the beach actually improves my tinnitus. I am not sure if it's the relaxing environment or the sounds of the water and the birds but I feel peaceful at the beach and my tinnitus lowers. So I say go to the beach and have a great time.

Ninyu you must stop with your negative thoughts. It's does not help anybody in anyway, especially the newbies that come on the forum for the first time. You are painting a very bad picture for everybody. You have the absolute right to vent and show your emotions but not at the detriment of...

Yes Silvine I love your posts! They always make me feel a lot better. Thank you.

@applewine , both a gp and an osteopath told me it may be related, but hey what do they know. However I had a deep tissue massage not that long ago and my tinnitus seemed to be relatively low for the following couple of days. Was it simply the placebo affect or did the massage really help? It...

@applewine hi again hope you are well today? So let's talk about our similar symptoms. I sometimes get the wet feeling around my temple and just above my eyes and sometimes on my legs. I also get burning sensation in my legs and around my shoulder blades and sometimes I feel like ants are...

@applewine , I can't believe it but I have most of the same symptoms as you. They are not severe but can be somewhat annoying at times. Is it really related to tinnitus? I do wonder if there is not more to it. I have had several tests and cat scans etc... They say all is normal. Hmmm.

Yes, I find the week I have my period my tinnitus becomes more high pitched and bothersome. It then goes back to baseline, however during ovulation it's even quieter. Go figure, tinnitus has its own mind.

I am sorry you are feeling this way. Even though you say you feel weak due to taking drugs, you are not. What you are doing is trying to find temporary relief and I think this is a most sensible thing to do. After this time you may want to try some hypnotherapy and meditation to address your...

Not sure what is wrong with me then. As i am trying this I am also saying to myself this better work. I cannot truly focus on the mission at hand. Another voice always interrupts this thinking. What should I do?

Wind chimes and a ticking clock. Thank you Miss Lavender.

For some unknown reason I find the ticking of a clock helps and also birds chirping.

Hi Latte girl, What part of Melbourne are you from?

Hi Ian, I am from Melbourne also. Is there any chance that there will be a clinical trial of some sort in Melbourne?

No I don't think it is weird at all. I have two sounds to my tinnitus, the most constant one is a hiss and the underlying one is a tonal sound. This tonal sound is exactly the same as a play station fan sound. It appears that this tonal sound came shortly after we obtained our play station. So...

I meant to say I take Panadol.

Hello there, yes I find that when I have a migraine my tinnitus increases. Thank goodness this happens only once in a while, I fact it is happening today. What I tend to do is take some Panafon and camomile tea and it takes the edge off ever so slightly, but that's better than nothing. I have...

Love your attitude Bob!

Should read a terrible cold and a lot of stress at the time.

Omg! I was just thinking this yesterday morning but too afraid to post as I thought it would be a question that would go under the radar. So I am so glad you posted this Deb. So my noise is a hiss sometimes static type of noise. And I believe my tinnitus derived from a terrible cold and slot

I find that my tinnitus also lowers in volume in silent environments. It's almost like there is no competition of other sounds, so it seems a lot more peaceful. I don't understand this too well, however I am grateful for it.

Hey saif, I am sorry that you are feeling so down about your situation being so young. But just think, youth is on your side which means you have a good chance of things healing/ improving in time. Your life is just beginning and you have so much to look forward to. Do you have special hobbies...

This is wonderful news! Maybe things will progress faster than expected.

Yes I am from Melbourne.

Hello derpytia, I am so glad you have asked this question. Not so much in regards to the fleeting tinnitus, but in regards to the buzz you heard in your ear when you pressed your ear. At least 70% of the time I can press my ear closed and I hear a different buzzing sound like that of a dying...

My tinnitus decreases a great deal after a shower.

I am claustrophobic. Cannot ever drive through/ under a tunnel, must always drive the long way around. Cannot go in the loop when going on a train. Also the fear of getting old and not being there for my children.

Wow Meeruf, Finally have found somebody who experiences what I do. Strangely enough my tinnitus is so much bettering silence. Too much noise around my tinnitus makes it worse rather than masking it. I have always wondered why this is the case? Peace to all. X

@Dr. Nagler, I totally agree with everything you say, however after three years of having the big T I am better but still not fully habituated. I do gave good days and on my bad days I try my best to overcome the noise. My problem is that I am always thinking about it, even when I am busy. I can...

I don't know you Billie, but I like you. Congratulations on helping others. It must feel wonderful, just like you make all of us feel just as wonderful. If you keep going the way you are going, your light at the end of the tunnel is so very close. I hope that one day I get to that point. Thank...

Good on you for perusing this further. Hope it resolves many issues for you. Good luck.

Hello Maithe, I got my tinnitus 8 weeks after my baby boy was born and I also had a two year old at the time. I know the feeling of feeling guilty and thinking that your not spending enough tine with your children. I had a very hard time with this feeling, let alone the agony of tinnitus as...

I believe it does also. From my own personal experience, my increases when I am angry/upset. However it decreases just as quickly.

Melatonin combined with camomile tea.

Hello Deb. You are a newbie, but sound like you have been around forever. Good on you for taking the time to share your insight and thoughts about your tinnitus experience. This will give a lot of hope to other newbies, and hope is all we have at the moment. I am so glad you are feeling a lot...

There us so much to know and learn about this thing we call Tinnitus. The good news is that many people on this forum have some great advice and insight about tinnitus. Please take the time to browse through the information. For me this is when the penny began to drop. This forum gave me faith...

@ patty. Thanks a lot. I use lots of lavender creams and soaps etc.( all organic of course) I even went to a lavender farm not long ago, and had great time. Make sure the tea is organic as well if possible. Good luck!

Melatonin as already mentioned, combined with camomile tea every night.

Good on you Jade! Such an inspiration... I remember when you first came on board TT. You have come such a long way. Bless. Xx

I find that when I have an extra long hot shower, my tinnitus is fairly low all day.

Hey Bruce Australia, I am from Victoria as well. Do you recommend any tinnitus specialists in the area. I am on a waiting list to go to the Ear and Eye hospital in East Melbourne. I understand that there are very good specialists at this hospital. Will let you know how I go.

I am sorry if this has been discussed in the past, but I have to have my say. I am certainly no expert when it comes to medical practices and funding. Why on earth has there never been the opportunity to have the public( meaning all tinnitus sufferers) donate what they can to tinnitus research...

Lets get your thoughts back to light. Before I developed tinnitus I had a blocked/ full ear sensation for about three months. It' can be very scary and annoying but believe me that will go in its own time. I don't know how long it will take in your case but most often than not it just goes away...

Hi Golly, This is why I love summer so much here in Australia. There are lots and lots of crickets here and they almost totally mask my tinnitus.Cant wait until summer comes!

Good on you Rob! I know you don't like doctors but sometimes they might be necessary. There is no harm in visiting your doctor, I fact he/ she may even have some advice/ suggestions. I wish you luck and don't be afraid. Fear is destructive. Ciao.

This is great news Kellster. Hope it lasts forever. It gives us all hope.

I had blocked ears for about three months and then it just disappeared. You will find that most of the time is just goes away on its own. Don't worry too much about it. if you are really concerned see your own doctor.
