i've had tinnitus for awhile now, in both ears, since maybe 2010 at earliest. not sure how it started but i remember one day hearing ringing in both ears. over time (5ish years) its subdued to a low rumbling in both ears and that was good, i was feeling happy about being free from the ringing...

Really need a iphone app for this so I can use it as I sleep, each night. would be an easy way to track improvements

I play in a extreme metal band and play drums, electric guitar on my own with loud amps. i wear -20db custom musician plugs when drumming, but the right one feels a bit too big and doesnt fit properly.. i should get it re adjusted soon.. I mean is it really bad/rare that someone with T continues...

I had 4 teeth pulled and wore braces in mid 2000's and now my jaw pops and cracks like crazy when opened, my entire jaw was pretty much changed as well as the position of all my teeth. Think this definitely has something to do with T? Normal hearing, the dentist thinks I might have TMJ and has...

So, as someone whos neck cracks every single time I turn it to the right (popping/cracking grinding sound), Someone with very possible TMJ (as confirmed by dentist, getting a night guard on the 12th. jaw pops cracks/when opened. had braces and 4 teeth removed in 2006ish) someone with possibly...

The OP post reminds me a lot of myself Experienced almost all of what OP said, the neck issues, the same clenching of jaw making the ringing louder, the misaligned spine, the jaw changing when I was younger dew to braces & getting teeth pulled. Chiro visits, with the adjustments, did nothing for...

When I listen to music it sounds 70% in the left ear especially vocals, I've only noticed this happen in the past few months it use to never be an issue. What can cause this? i have had no exposure to loud noise.

they really are, everytime you go to a doctor you are mostly wasting your time. better to educate yourself instead.

if tinnitus exists then god doesn't.

yeah i am most afraid of hyperacusis..even though I have pretty awful T in the back of my mind I'm always thinking it can get worse..and with my luck it might just pop out one day and surprise me :/

turn a fan on, it may be permanent. it started that way for me too, jaw pain, jaw issues, clicking jaw.. etc.. most likely if its to do with your jaw in my experience most doctors/dentists wont/cant do much about it besides give you a mouth guard at night..sorry but you might have to live with it!

So basically let tinnitus control my life? whats the point of even being alive then?

If you use headphones and listen to music, is it in the center, panned to one side slightly or sound 'less' on one side? how normal is it? I remember 5 years ago when I'd always listen to headphones it would sound completely centred, no issues. Now it just sounds like the main vocal, and most...

wtf are lipo flavinoids?

so if I play drums in a band standard earplugs will NOT be enough, when I already have pretty bad T?..

I play drums in a band, and music is really all I want to do. Obviously playing drums isn't good for T, and I wear basic hearing protection. My ears ring like fucking crazy after a gig, and right now I hear a ringing in my left ear that just cuts through everything. Nothing is drowning it out...

Can go to loud gigs, band practice, stand next to loud ass speakers day after day and have NO problems, no ringing or anything? my band mate says he never rings after practice but I suffer for DAYS after even using hearing protection! is my body just broken and flawed extremely or something?

Honestly not much you can do. We're stuck with this, for better or mostly worse.

I was playing drums yesterday now my tinnitus is about 5x worse than usual. Will it go back down...?

I had band practice yesterday and I play drums. I didn't wear hearing protection for like 2 songs, but the rest I put earplugs in. My tinnitus went up by about 3x as loud as it usually is, I hear it everywhere. Is this temporary or did I really fuck something up this time someone move this to...

Constant chronic tinnitus of 8000hz was one thing, but now, not being able to listen to headphones and escape from it all is the issue i'm faced with. I no longer can hear as well in my right ear (or atleast, thats what im telling myself) When i try to listen to music, I now notice that...

I had a hearing test today and have normal hearing but there was a slight dip in the right ear that "should be unnoticeable" but when listening to music it really feels panned to the left...really annoying..

I've had T for 2 years. I've been smoking almost daily for 2 years. I first noticed my T around when I was smoking quite a lot. I still, to this day, have never really stopped smoking weed for more than a week or more.. when I smoke, my T gets louder, but I get relaxed, and anxiety levels drop...

so about 2 weeks (or less) before I actually REALLY noticed my T I had first heard of tinnitus. It was 2 weeks before i got tinnitus that I first learned about it, and when I did I distinctly remember going "...wow, I feel so bad for the people with this condition! it must be horrible to NEVER...

incredible posts, driveninsane, we need this sort of thinker in our community and someone who will actually stand up to all the bullshit and LIES in the medical world, keep posting, keep thinking, most importantly keep fighting..

I have them bad, I see them even looking at a computer screen. about 50 of them as well. sigh, the shit just keeps piling up

This is very worrying has anyone else every got this? absolutely nothing has happened but my right ear just doesn't hear as well! its really annoying listening to music... how much worse can this get!!!! i have the worst luck in history argh!!!!!!!!

I woke up this morning with my T on a scale of 1-10 it was 9. I used http://www.generalfuzz.net/acrn/ for about 2 hours and now its about 3 or 4... I can barely hear it.. it almost seems like doing this resets my T volume level for the entire day!! anyone else get this?

I use http://www.generalfuzz.net/acrn/" almost every day hoping to see some results but after 2 or 3 months I am not seeing any. It definitely gives temporary relief, though. my T is in the 7950hz - 8000 range

listening to headphones and earbuds I noticed lately that my right ear is just slightly lower volume than my left and music is slightly balanced to the left... it was NEVER like this before, any idea what happened to make it like this!? im so worried that my ears are getting worse..

it gets louder, when i bite hard, it gets louder, when i clench hard, it gets louder i mean like 90% louder does this mean I have TMJ? I went to a dentist and he said you can only have TMJ if you grind your teeth in your sleep... i think bullshit ... what could this mean? (its a very high pitch...

Only way for me to sleep is to use white noise on my iphone with earbuds If i try to sleep on my side with my ear to the pillow the tinnitus is just too loud and is amplified by the pillow because of lack of outside noise

i think TMJ. pushing down on my jaw with my hands makes the pressure in my ears go away. my face is numb around the jaw, ever since i had braces and 4 teeth pulled i think this is why. my dentist said i dont have TMJ. so i dont know what to do

How loud should it be? I have it on 50% headphone volume and 100% volume on the website. I usually listen to music and other things at around 15-25% volume on windows.

"some months now" Like I said though, I've had it for over a year and a half. I've been through that first phase, exept i never quite got over it. my life before T wasn't very good, and now with T its spriling into a very dark despondent place and I don't know how much longer I can deal with...

How long should I run this for? 5 mins? 2 hours? Mine is around 8k, I notice a suppression in the ringing with this on. So does that mean even if I have no hearing damage and might have TMJ from dental related things when I was younger that this will still work?

Had it since mid 2012 I've been to 2 ENT doctors, an audiologist, dentists, family doctors No one knows whats wrong with me I had 4 teeth pulled roughly 5 years ago, and had braces which practically restructured my jaw Now, when I clench my jaw/teeth togeather tightly my T gets a big increase...
