    Seems quite clear that you in fact then have some fluid building up. Have you received any treatment for that? Any talks about installing a shunt there, for example? This is mentioned in https://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/menieres-disease/diagnosis-treatment/drc-20374916

    Tinnitus for 4 Years from Loud Noise — Now I Rarely Notice It and It Doesn't Bother Me

    I feel your pain. Not being able to sleep is hell. I went to sleeping meds briefly myself. It is the first and foremost thing in wellbeing, and if that is not right then everything goes down the drain. You mentioned Meniere's in your profile. I am no expert, but seems many of your symptoms are...

    Tinnitus for 4 Years from Loud Noise — Now I Rarely Notice It and It Doesn't Bother Me

    Tinnitus for 4 Years from Loud Noise — Now I Rarely Notice It and It Doesn't Bother Me

    Good to hear that it is gradually going to the right direction for you. I am afraid I can't give a definite answer to your question, when it noticed it didn't bother me any more. I suppose after 6months I had learned to live with it, and started to fall asleep without listening to any white...

    Tinnitus for 4 Years from Loud Noise — Now I Rarely Notice It and It Doesn't Bother Me

    You mean do I still hear it if I listen to it? Yes, I do hear it if I try to. I try to avoid listening to it, cause I am afraid it gains volume if I pay attention to it. I do believe that my tinnitus was more that my brain kind of tuned into it, since I was paying too much attention to it...

    Tinnitus for 4 Years from Loud Noise — Now I Rarely Notice It and It Doesn't Bother Me

    Wanted to share my story to whom are struggling. Four years ago, I was exposed to a loud noise which started an anxious period with tinnitus symptoms worsening over following weeks. Constant ringing in left ear, and hyperacusia. It really got so bad I couldn't sleep more than 1-2 hours a night...
