    Sensitivity to Sound — Particularly YouTube Videos — I Hear Things Much Louder Than Previously

    Wow, that is so interesting! I got hyperacusis from watching series on my laptop on an average volume of 45 dB. So that would not be enough to cause hyperacusis - or so I thought. I guess no more Netflix for me. But that really explains it! I hope I will recover soon.

    Spike from MRI

    Hi natalie, my T is reactive as well. It was louder afterwards but it calmed quickly down after 1 to 2 hours. Also vibration aggravates my t. Its loud, yes, but it wont harm you. there wont be a permanent increase

    Spike from MRI

    Hi natalie, I was worried in the beginning. But I took the very normal foam 33db earplugs. the ones you get in the pharmacy. I have custom made ones as well but they only protect 25 db. So the foam plugs + the ones over the head and you will be 100% good :) they did an MRI of my entire back, so...

    My T is 100% noise induced. So unfortunately its not ever going to go away.

Some people are just unlucky just like me. But thank...

    yes, thats right. damage is cumulative. But I will go longer inside the pub. Because I want to. Thats it. simple. Im not talking about going crazy and going to a concert to stand in front of speakers :D no, dont do that. But a pub with 88db, and -33db plugs I want to try longer. not 10 but...

    Able to Go to Loud Pubs/Bars?

    okay guys :) So I went. and I am happy that I went. In quieter bars I wore my 20 db reduction plugs. My estimated 95 db was probably too much but For sure around 88 db in one pub (my db measure app isnt too accurate). We stayed away from those loud bars. we went to one bar which was that...
