Hi Lesa! Sorry to hear this is bothering you. It's important to know that while some people have issues after going through tests on their ears, others do not. I had a full-scope test with an audiologist, and came out of it with no worsening of my conditions. Personally, it's up to you to...

Figured I'd post again. Hopefully this thread will get bumped and maybe someone can reference me in the future for people with newly onset conditions. My tinnitus is finally gone. Basically over the first 4 months it decreased, but never really vanished. Hell, for a month it went from my right...

Yeah man. I hear you. Right now mine is ringing again in my right ear. It comes and goes. But as noted by plenty of people on here, yours can fade over time! Mine isn't as bad as it used to be. The hardest part will be your anxiety. I'm still dealing with mine, but plenty of people adapt and...

Thanks. I'm taking Ativan/Lorazepam. Have for years. Never had any problems with it before. And from my own self research, I haven't seen a direct result for that specific drug. Though who knows.

A proof-of-life post. And a good one for people to read! 2.5 months in, give or take, and things have gotten WAAAAYYYY better. The ringing has continued to subside, and is currently at a very minor "high pitched hissing" The loud ringing is completely gone. For around a week I didn't even...

Another quick update... I've gotta step away from this site for a while and focus on myself. You guys are all wonderful, but just seeing the "Tinnitus Talk" text reminds me of my tinnitus. It's been a month, and I've had a very slow, but also noticeable, improvement. The last week I've had...

Good to hear things are getting better, man!

Figured I'd put an update here. If nothing else it'll give me something to read further down the line. So far I'm 16 days in. I'm not exactly sure where the levels are at now, but the tone definitely changed over the last few weeks from a high pitched ringing to more of an electric hissing...

Good luck, dude. These improvements will keep coming!

Thinking about it, yeah, I agree. May very well have been that dentist. The hardest part is not knowing, sometimes.

Though I should definitely mention my Doctor did say she believed it may also be a Eustachain Tube problem, and that it could be a few weeks before it resolves. Too early to tell, but I will be open to anything, including this being something that lasts a looooong while! :)

@bsimo2213 I think mine was caused by anxiety! But wayyy too early to know for sure. And yeah, we've got this!

Hi Bill, After seeing 3 different physicians before finally seeing my Primary Care physician (who just came back from vacation... perfect timing), they could not find anything wrong with my outer or middle ear based off of their observations. I'll still be seeing an ENT to be sure. My Primary...

Hi bsimo! I am new to having this as well. I'm glad you're keeping strong! We are all there with you!

Thank you, Bill! It's come and gone today, along with a dizzy spell, and some aching in the ears. Really it's the anxiety that's the worst at the moment, but I've read many stories here, and keep thinking to you all wonderful people for inspiration and motivation to keep going!

A sudden decrease came last night when I was tossing and turning. Went from a raging turbine to something more akin to a hissing noise, which is where it's at now. Don't know why or how it happened so instantaneously, but at least I'm not in an anxiety attack, though I'm still really rattled...

Thanks for that info, Bill! I'll have to call tomorrow and see. Though I believe it was a bit of both. And from what I've read, it should simmer down in a few months. Now that I think of it, I may have had T for a bit longer than I thought, just never noticed it until now. I aim to keep...

Thank you for the warm welcome, SugarMagnolia! I've been doing reading on the forum, and do remember I had a tooth-cleaning procedure the Wednesday before I got my T. It was on the problem side of my mouth too. I did read "Many people on this forum got their T as a result of ultrasonic dental...

Hello, Mellow! This experience is new for me as well, and I believe I can relate to your story some. For the past few months, my left ear would "pop" but I could not "un-pop" it no matter what I did. And it would stay like this for hours! My right ear would be fine. As a matter of fact, it's...

Hello Steve! From what I've read, many people have times like this... The ups and downs. As for the cause of these flare ups, take a look internally and think about any recent stresses, or changes in diet. Like Sven said above, infection and alcohol consumption can make things temporarily worse.

Thank you kindly for the introduction & welcome, Billie! This forum looks to be a wonderful place, and I've been reading many posts. We are all in this together! :)

Hello everyone. Long post ahead! I am a 23-yr old male who has just experienced Tinnitus for the first time. My Tinnitus began on the night of Sunday, March 11th. I was lying in bed, tossing and turning, a bit stressed out over the bed sheet I was lying on, which ripped down the middle , and I...
