    Saying Hello: Tinnitus from Loud Club

    Tinnitus After Johnson & Johnson COVID-19 Vaccine

    Out of curiosity: did any one of you who got tinnitus from the vaccine test your body for an nitrosative stress? Nitrosative stress is a typical cause of all these issues and is induced by a lot of substances, as well as psychological stress, etc.

    Do You Treat Your STD or Just Let Your Body Handle It to Avoid Antibiotics?

    I like this post! Thank you for confirming my impression that, on Tinnitus Talk and on the Internet you can easily find almost every drug to be ototoxic - just find the right source for a specific drug :) Nevertheless, we should stop focusing only on our ears when it's about health. We are...

    Doxycycline — Is It Safe for People with Tinnitus?

    No worries bro, If you search on Tinnitus Talk, everyone eventually got rid of tinnitus who got it from Doxycycline. Reasons: - Doxycycline is not ototoxic per se, but it messes with your mitochondria. That's why some people notice tinnitus - maybe tinnitus that they even had before but so...

    Tinnitus & Hyperacusis Started While Taking Doxycycline

    Thanks @Toney, and especially for your reports! You may be right, but on the other hand there are many people who have taken Doxycycline and were not exposed to loud noise, so in my opinion it could well have done it on its own. And, once you manage to treat your Doxycycline-intoxication so to...

    Tinnitus & Hyperacusis Started While Taking Doxycycline

    The effect of Doxycycline to the nerves is not ototoxicity. Doxycycline is not necessarily ototoxic. Furthermore, not everyone suffers from such severe side effects of Doxycycline. The ones who experienced tinnitus like symptoms probably experienced the following effect: Detoxification in the...

    99% Recovered from Tinnitus

    Hi Samuel, 1) I'm wondering that even such a small dose led to such severe problems for you and that they lasted so long. This leads me to the thought that sensitivity to Doxycycline is extremely different from body to body. Thus, IMHO it is not directly related to hearing cells, since we (me...

    Doxycycline for Acne Rosacea: Scared to Take — Tinnitus from Neck and Jaw

    If antioxidants did not help (or not enough) it may be that your mitochondria lost Cytochrom C/Vitamin B3, breaking the respiratory chain of ATP production, resulting in increase of problems with nerves that need a lot of energy, such as HAIR CELLS. Note that this issue is reversible, as the...

    Doxycycline — Is It Safe for People with Tinnitus?

    I don't think so. I bet that either there is still Doxycycline in your body, since you took it that long, or you have (reversibly) damaged your mitochondria. "Doxycycline hyclate binds reversibly to the 30S ribosomal subunit, possibly to the 50S ribosomal subunit as well, thereby blocking the...

    Doxycycline for Acne Rosacea: Scared to Take — Tinnitus from Neck and Jaw

    Interesting. I also took Mirtazapine a few times and I did not feel any effect on it on my ears. I think, apart from the very bad stuff like Aminoglycosides, maybe Fluorchinolones, Chemotherapeutics, etc. things aren't too dangerous. Just my opinion.

    I forgot to answer this question!

    Btw guys: I dare to say LLLT is a T cure. It just takes until the last crying cell is cured. Of course, in the mean time, the other cells improve as well. That's why many people see that their heaeing improves until T dissappears completely. It is also what Wilden said in his book.
