I just saw this thread. Azelastine HCl has done wonders for me. It is only effective if your tinnitus is not due to nerve damage. It's more so for Eustachian tube dysfunction. I was getting desperate for any kind of relief in October 2018; I went to a local doctor to see if I had earwax that...

@Chris M Hey there! Sorry, I've been a busy bee this month. Still try to get on here every few days while I can. I found your other thread where you laid out your symptoms. Seems like you have a milder case, especially if it's getting better as fast as you say. The best thing that helped me out...

Hi @Chris M ! Closing in on 4 months now. The T is a high frequency pitch for me, was a gradual increase and now the past month it has been gradually decreasing. Trying to think of a comparison of sound to help you gauge how loud it got. I'd say at its peak, I'd have to drive with the windows...

Hey @billie48 thanks again for checking in, it is much appreciated! Made lots of unexpected progress in the past 5 days! Symptoms are exponentially better, and the T's sound intensity has significantly dropped.

NEW UPDATE: ~30 days after the last post, I've made more progress in the right direction. Just sticking to the plan (ginger tea for inflammation, max power nasal decongestants, drain fluid from ear, repeat). I've reduced caffeine consumption even more since my ER incident, and it has really...

Hey @daiso Thanks for your reply, sorry mine took a month lol! Waited another 30 days to log any kind of progression with the symptoms. Now that I look back on it, I am almost 100% positive now that the huge spike in T and ending up in the ER was caffeine induced. I literally had way too much...

NEW UPDATE: It's been about another 3 weeks since my 2nd appointment with the ENT doctor, and all signs were positive. Although the Eustachian tube is still not fully recovered, Hearing ability in my left ear that has T has recovered by at least 50%, the negative pressure has decreased by about...

Forgot to say that "nasacort" nasal spray has been the best of the sprays I've tried. Afrin didn't help at all

Hi Crystal B - hope you are well. I won't be able to advise much on the migraine and tinnitus correlation, but the excess fluid in ears is up my alley as that is what is the primary cause of my T. Are you only taking nasal sprays? Taking a max power nasal decongestant that contains...

Hi everyone. Current update: it's been about 3-4 weeks since I have seen the ENT specialists' assistants to do initial test/diagnostics, etc., prior to seeing the actual ENT which is tomorrow. I've been using CVS brand of Mucinex D every day, and Nasacort nose spray every few days, mixed with...

Hi @ericdking1010 , showing some love on your post! Sorry to hear you just accumulated the T symptoms. Here to support you as well, and best of luck on your journey to recovery. Anxiety/stress could be a factor like you said, but to be the only factor doesn't seem right, perhaps there is another...

Hi @ericdking1010 , thanks for the message and welcome. Feel free to share your story as well or if you have already made a post, share it with me and I'd love to read it. All the best in your road to recovery

Thanks @Bill Bauer for the additional resources. I took a quick skim (will read more in depth following this reply) and information around plane rides and occasional spikes stuck out to me initially. Perhaps I can find something that I may not have discovered yet in your thread. Take care.

Hi @billie48 thanks for your read and comments. There is a lot more to the story, but tried my best to not make it a novel. Actually saw 3 different doctors until I was able to gather enough data to make some sort of effective action plan and pinpoint triggers. Getting the data was key. There...

Accumulation of build up of fluid in my middle ear over time (due to inflammation) triggered my T eventually. I've been taking the CVS Pharma version of Mucinex D (a max strength nasal decongestant) and that has been the golden ticket to finding any relief for me. It has done a great job of...

Hello everyone. I'm new to the site, wanted to share my experience with what is possibly Tinnitus to date in hopes it can be used to some of you as a resource or to simply read. Over this past Thanksgiving of 2017, I was in Spain for a few days. On my return flight back to the states, I noticed...
