Hi everyone, It has been a while since my last visit on Tinnitus Talk. When I got tinnitus around 4 years ago, I thought my life was done. There had to be something wrong with me, right? My noise was loud and high-pitched, first in my left ear. After a couple of months, the noise started in...

Hi, You shouldn't be afraid of tinnitus suicide stories. I will share a short story that took away a lot of my fear for tinnitus. Maybe it will help you too. I have a friend, who has a friend with tinnitus. Let's just call him Tim. I was occasionally getting updates about his state and to be...

Maybe I am just being positive, but I am almost certain there will be an all-round cure within the next 10, maybe 20 years. Science isn't standing still and we are discovering new stuff in record rate. Within 10 years they will send humans to Mars. I am pretty sure something good will come up...

Hi, After a bunch of different doctors and I believe I found the cause after visiting a TMJ. I have a high pitch T in my left ear. When I am laying down, I can hear a artery (or muscle) pushing against my pillow, causing a scratchy sound that matches my pulse. When I lift my head from the...

I like the mindset. Good stuff. While I was reading your positive post, I noticed my T dropping. I strongly believe neurotransmitters in the brain can improve or worsen T. If my brain is constantly cortisol fueled, no way it will let go of the "danger" called T.

Hi! I came across this paper: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2997922/ In short: Taurine, a common amino acid in the human body, reduced or eliminated T in a small rat study. Who tried supplementing with Taurine? It's rather cheap. I Havent tried it myself (yet...) Cheers

Hi Brett, Don't panic brother. We all feel your pain, but stressing out is never good. According to lots of research stress creates and worsens diseases in 95% of the cases. And tinnitus is no exception. Besides, every year thousands and thousands of people do recover. And you don't see a lot...

I am happy for you that you are dealing with it that way. Hope it will even get better for you over time. I am really curious about that research paper. Do you know where to find in? I can't seem to find anything on Pubmed.

Thanks glynis. Appreciate the info :) I am going to the ENT in 4 weeks. In the meanwhile, I am trying Teobin gingko and zinc supplements. And a visit to a manual therapist each week. I will keep this thread updated if I find something that works. I am optimistic. In my opinion, the majority of...

Hi ekiwi, Let's hope you will find some answers and a solution. Going to an ENT is a good start. In my case (started 3 weeks ago) the underlying cause could be a lot of diffrent things. My mindset is accept the problem and pain, while searching for a solution. And I am not planning to stop...
