Hi @Jkph75 watching TV doesn't bother me because the high-pitched electric sound that accompanies it sounds a lot like my T. So I look at the TV as the source of that "noise" and it's kind of a mask for me. Radio static is also comforting (my car passengers hardly ever agree haha). Oddly...

@Lorac I'm sure you're right, that most people see sufficient improvement after a few years but don't come back to TinnitusTalk to report it because they're ready to move on with their lives. I was almost one of those people, but I'll occasionally remember how much I needed this group during my...

I don't know how to perfectly describe my journey. It all feels so subjective but I wanted to share a story of improvement and hope. Ten days after trying out my friend's handgun without earmuffs my T started up and was unbearable. It was on my mind 24/7, and I was surprised that my friends...

I just wanted to chime in and say great posts - a lot of good info being shared as we try to figure this out! Also, I imagine none of us have tried using an inversion table? Inversion tables are meant for relieving back pain - but because it also serves to stretch out your spine in the...

Also, this video is useful for figuring out whether or not "trigger points" are contributing to your tinnitus:

Hi all. I posted a few months ago with my experience with the TruDenta treatment. There was definite improvement in the frequency and loudness of my jaw popping, but little to no affect on my tinnitus. While I've dabbled in other treatments since then, I haven't given up on TMJ therapy being...

Grataluje ci ryba! Cheers from a Polish American who's very happy to see your success story! No go drink some zubrowka! ;)

(as in a different kind of ear plugs I mean!)

I've been meaning to share after coming across this "Marais La Nuit" Neko Case song. It's basically 30 minutes of crickets.. what more could you ask for in a song/track! ;) Haha, just sharing in case anyone finds this pleasant too:

Thank you MikeA and Stina! I was satisfied enough to see them on the american tinnitus association website's store, so I'm glad you brought the question of the lower NRR to my attention. Will definitely be purchasing a new pair!

Just wanted to share a pair of ear plugs I discovered on the american tinnitus association website store. I decided to purchase this particular pair after seeing that the amazon.com reviews are great. I've used the same pair of these ear plugs for the past 4 months, almost 5 days a week and up...

I had my TMJ successfully treated using TruDenta, but my T did not change in volume unfortunately. I still think there's a chance that my T was caused by TMJ, as my TMJ symptoms were at their peak when my T began. I've decided to go to a myofascial therapy practice in a couple weeks, and will...

Best advice I have from my own experience is do what it takes to get the sleep you need - talk to your doctor if you need help with that. That's the only thing that's helped me in regards to having the most positive attitude possible and with slightly lowering the volume of my T (or my...

I found this link to be helpful: Strategies to Protect and Preserve Your Hearing - 2 - Life Extension While I can't help but to keep experimenting with supplements to figure out my tinnitus better, I agree with Luca that keeping busy with what you enjoy is the best remedy so far - that and...

Thanks everyone for your input on this study! I'm considering SoundCure myself, and contacted Dr. Zeng, who implemented the study that led to SoundCure, by email. I first learned about SoundCure after finding the ATA article that Steve posted above. After contacting Dr. Zeng to ask for...

My dentist just got back to me. The steps of the therapy (during each of 3 visits) included (1) an ultrasound, (2) manual trigger point therapy (which releases lactic acid build up), (3) micro-current, which involves the pads that are used to connect with the brain on the nerve level, and (4) a...

Matthew I thought I'd weigh in and repeat what I learned from my dentist in the US. Any misalignment with your jaw could off set your temporomandibular joint. Because the muscles in our jaws are interconnected to our shoulders and necks in a complicated fashion, any number of muscles could be...

Hi erik. It doesn't look like anyone else has given this a shot, but I just began this TruDenta therapy last week, with my next appointment tomorrow. I will be in touch regarding the effect of this dentomandibular rehab therapy, as my dentist calls it. Just a recap of my background, as it's...

Thank you for the lead regarding dragon herbs, carlover! I'd never heard of this company and was impressed with their customer service and website. And glad to see you also shop Dragon Herbs erik. @aka, good luck with your pursuit! I was ready to give Bu Zhong Yi Qi Tang a try until I...

@markoana, it sounds like we had the same hectic lifestyle before our T began. I also found that my ENT wasn't able to offer any good advice other than "just get used to it," so I'm going to see an audiologist next week who's been approved by the American Tinnitus Association for another...

Hi Markoana, thanks for having me! I'm really not sure what caused my T. One afternoon this ringing started and the first thing I thought of was how I shot a gun (once without hearing protection, but protected right after that) at the shooting range about 11 days prior. I thought that my T...

Whether or not this is a study worth paying attention to, I'm definitely glad you shared it Calin. It seems that the ingredients at least don't have negative side effects and might be good for the body in other ways even if not for tinnitus, so worth a shot if it's easy enough to find the herbs...

Hello everyone! I'm new to tinnitustalk and greatly appreciate the existence of this forum and everyone who's been contributing to the many discussions I've read through here. I've had tinnitus for 3 weeks now in the form of a high-pitched and consistent electronic-sounding noise coming from...
