    Spike with New Tormenting Sound

    Just popping in as someone with experience with beta blockers! I was recently on a low dose of propranolol for anxiety for about four months, and just quit (after tapering, of course) about two weeks ago. I actually feel like being off the propranolol has lessened my tinnitus and helped my sound...

    Positional Pulsatile Tinnitus During a Cold — Hearing Heartbeat Loudly in Certain Positions

    Hey all, long time no see. I’ve mostly been managing the ear problems I’ve been having and for the most part dealing with my anxiety. I just have a little question! Normally, I can’t hear my heartbeat in my ear at all. Not standing up, not sitting down, not lying down. I have a pretty bad cold...

    Going to Bars/Clubs/Concerts with Hearing Protection — Wise or Not?

    It's before! It starts like two hours before doors are even open.

    Going to Bars/Clubs/Concerts with Hearing Protection — Wise or Not?

    I've been to a lot of concerts, but I think right now, at least for a little while, my concert days are over. I've kind of come to accept that I need to let my ears figure out what the hell is going on for a little while before I feel safe putting myself in that kind of situation again. That...

    Rattle/Distortion When Listening to Music

    Jason, did this distortion kind of sound like someone talking/singing through a fan? Because that's what I've been experiencing for the past few days, and I'm trying to see if anyone on this forum has ever dealt with this before.

    Sometimes Things Sound Like Talking Through a Fan — Help?

    Hey all. The other day, I went with my friend to a tattoo shop for his birthday. The needle was pretty loud. Afterwards, I noticed that some sounds kind of sounded like they were being put through a fan, if that makes sense. That was a few days ago. It’s only really noticeable listening to...

    Combining Treatments to Best Help Hearing Loss

    Hey @Walid5, thanks for the reply. I'm sorry to hear about your case, but all the same it also makes me feel better to know someone is kind of similar to me! I know that it can be scary to listen to music/other things when you find out your hearing isn't what it used to be, but cutting it out...

    Combining Treatments to Best Help Hearing Loss

    Hey all, I'm new here. For a while, I've noticed that I may have hidden hearing loss (my roommates and I often turn on captioning for TV shows, with the running joke "our ears are not our friends") — mild, but still, not a great thing to have. I have tinnitus that comes and goes (it seems to...
