I hope that you are finding out something helpful for you! Keep your chin up! We got this...sometimes all we have is one another!!!

I cold turkey from lorazepam too this past Oct. 7 after three months of. 5 to 1 MG of daily use. I found it only made me worse, so I decided to stop. Boy, I wish I would have known this would cause tinnitus. I have been to an audiologist who says my T is medicine induced, and I do have some...

OK, so, as far as I can tell, most ADs are otoxic. I imagine that it was me being on Ativan for anxiety for three months and then stopping cold turkey that may have caused my tinnitus. I also suspect that zoloft might have done it too, but I was only on it for eight or nine days. currently I...

Hi everyone. Had T for about a month and a half now. Saw an ENT today, which I honestly thought was quackers to say the least because he thinks I might have TMJ or it might be caused by my gabapentin. Anyway, he wants me to discuss with my primary care doctor about getting off the gabapentin...

So here I am....again. After I wen to an audiologist a couple weeks ago, he said my tinnitus was due to medications. Went to my normal doctor he said no it wasn't and prescribed me to take aldactone (spironolactone) and do flonase nasal spray and wait it out. What can't they be straight to...

@Virek... any new updates?

@PaulBe This came from my regular physician. He said he wanted to attack it from all angles. I haven't seen an ENT yet because of the local ones "protocol" I have seen an audiologist who tested me and I did have a small amount of hearing loss... but he couldn't offer me why as I hadn't been...

Please..anyone?

So went to my primary care doctor today who suggested trying a diuretic called aldosterone or spironolactone (something like that here in the United States anyway). I haven't had any blood pressure issues, in fact upon today's checking it was 118/85. I am scared of trying a new medicine...

Thank you, @glynis . I am so unsure about anything when it comes to this. I don't feel like myself. I used to be a rock for my family, husband and child. Now I am full of anxiety and nerves. I hoped it would be temporary, but each day looks as though it is not.

Really bad day. Wish I had someone here in person that suffers from loud T. it seems like it might be easier on a loud day like today.

Thank you for the clarification @undecided I may follow up with my physician tomorrow and discuss with him. All i know is that I am scared. I am sure you have been there. Any other opinions from others are respected and appreciated. Thank you.

I am in kind of a similar boat as you. Honestly I am thinking about asking my primary care doc for a referral to a neurologist. That is going to be my next step. I have screeching in my ears 24/7 and a weird pulse/twitching above my right ear. sometimes it hurts or feel cramps and full of...

Hi everyone... I developed high pitched T about 5 weeks ago. I went to an audiologist who did tests but offered nothing but use a calming app and no real reason why. I have never been exposed to real loud noises so I am puzzled, other than I did use a benzo (Ativan/lorazapam) once daily for...

Feeling really really scared. Want to take my hydroxyzine for anxiety but afraid of making my ringing worse. All alone.

Hi everyone. I have seen so much information I'm unsure. I have been prescribed Hydroxyzine for anxiety which I had before the loud tinnitus set in. I was researching if it might make tinnitus worse or not and some websites say it is ototoxic, others say no. Any members here used it or have...

I have always had slight bit of tinnitus. But it tampered up a few weeks ago to unbearable levels. I had a bought of anxiety and had tries BuSpar, but stopped it after a few days. I have also been taking gabapentin for nerve pain for about six to seven weeks 300mgs three times daily. I also used...

Can't take this anymore!! Why do I have this stupid screeching in my ears???? Please ears, head, or whatever...just stop!

Hi everyone from the United States. I hate that myself like all of you are meeting one another under these circumstances. I wouldn't wish this on anyone! I have always had a bit of tinnitus, since a child. I barely noticed it, I had repeated ear infections. Fast forward to now. About five months...

Tired and sad....
