    Smart Phone Hearing Aids

    Thanks, but that hasn’t been my experience. I am able to change the volume of Stream Boost any way I want. I can change the hearing aid as well as the masking sounds. Still a mystery to me. ~Val

    Smart Phone Hearing Aids

    Very interesting information. Let me know what your new audiologist says about Stream Boost. My audiologist had to experiment with my settings several times until I was satisfied. It’s programmed to react to the background noise. I am due for an appointment soon. ~Val

    Smart Phone Hearing Aids

    Hi Ambassador, I read the article but it’s still not clear what the difference is between “normal” and “Stream Boost.” I tried to use Steam Boost today for Relax App and it was too intense for me. I changed it back to “Normal.” I will try the Widex app. Thanks! Val ZeeBee

    Smart Phone Hearing Aids

    I have Starkey Hearing Aids paired with my iPhone. I like the Starkey Relax App masking sounds for my tinnitus. I use the True-Link App to control the volume of my hearing aids. Here’s my question: The True-Link App can be set on “Normal” or “Stream Boost.” I don’t understand the difference...

    Tinnitus After Tooth Infection

    Hi Emelie, Good luck with your decision. My T goes between 3/10 to 6/10. It spikes when there is a big weather change. As long as the weather stays constant the T stays around 3/10. I can live with that as long as I use masking sounds. ~Val

    Tinnitus After Tooth Infection

    Hi Emelie, My T started during the time I had a severe abscess in the wisdom tooth under my ear. The antibiotic came a few days before T. It could have been a coincidence, or it could have triggered my T. I have hearing loss in the same frequency as the T ringing. My ringing is about level 4...

    I am going to be thinking about the success of your implant in February. It is not a long time off if you imagine yourself back to health again and having a less stressful life. I thank you again for talking to me on this forum. ~Val

    Tinnitus After Tooth Infection

    Thank you so much for your encouragement and for all the information you have imparted. I have resigned myself, day by day, to accept my situation. Are you a Christian? I know that God guides us in all decisions. I hope you don’t mind, Anima, if I offer thoughts and prayers for you to...

    Tinnitus After Tooth Infection

    Thank you, Anima, for your advice. Yes, I have had many ENT visits, Audiology tests, and went to a TMJ (TMD) specialist. None of them could find a specific cause for my T except speculating about my slight hearing loss in the upper ranges. I use a hearing aid for the hearing loss that also has...

    Tinnitus After Tooth Infection

    Hi Anima, I was using penicillin during the time I had the abscess and was developing tinnitus. It was a high ringing and sometimes a lower hissing (like steam). I still have the T but I use masking sounds to help me out. I also had HYPERACUSIS but I think that is getting better now.

    Tinnitus After Tooth Infection

    Hello my fellow T talkers. I developed T during the time I had a severe infection in my tooth. It was an impacted wisdom tooth, the last tooth under the right ear. I’ve had T for 8 months now. I am coping well with hearing aids that have masking sounds. I thank God I found a solution that...
