    A lot of people experience tinnitus that changes multiple times a day. Hopefully, yours is only temporary. I had a similar experience about eight years ago after an unexpected explosion in a fire barrel. Although my tinnitus stopped for a few days afterward, I lost most of my hearing on the...

    Lenire — Bimodal Stimulation Treatment by Neuromod

    A lot of shortcoming between facts and advertising. I got tinnitus over four years ago from an explosion in a drum I was burning trash in. Seriously affected my life. When the average person watches television, they are being brainwashed unwillingly. Two years ago my 43-year-old daughter...

    Flare Audio Calmer — Does It Help Tinnitus?

    Does anyone know of a product that is not a scam. I tried and use many supplements with great reviews. The latest was from Piping Rock.com Tinnitus Relief. Tried it two months, zero change. My brain tells me I got some relief from 240 mg of Ginkgo Biloba a day. I stopped taking it...

    Steroids: Prednisone / Dexamethasone / Others (Oral and Intratympanic Injections)

    I took Prednisone 40-mg for 21 day, started 14-days after being several feet from an explosion inside fire drum. I was bad when I started and far better hearing when I stopped. Prednisone never reduced the tinnitus. I also have severe back pain, that prednisone pack for five days would provide...

    Why Advise Against Headphones?

    I agree totally. I figured it out three years ago getting tinnitus and hyperacusis from a explosion in a 55-gallon drum my head was directly over. I was burning garbage , and had a heavy hat with ears down and hood on top of that. (winter) I went deaf and instant ringing started. I have...

    In the Dumps — Tinnitus for Years, Three Days Ago I Just Latched Onto It and Can't Shake It Off

    I would rather have AIDS or cancer. No you would not . My T is spiking because I have a loved one dying of cancer. This is just a bump in the road, not the end of the line. Keep the tv on all night if you must or cell phone loud enough with masking sounds to match your T sound. I...

    Tinnitus for Three Years from an Explosion — Ginkgo Biloba

    I was using Swanson and now Piping Rock. Not back to where I was before, but not a big burden on wallet to keep trying. I"ll give it another month and switch back to Swanson, if no progress. My last two years have been beyond stressful. And stress makes tinnitus spike. My 43 year old...

    Tinnitus for Three Years from an Explosion — Ginkgo Biloba

    I would say this. After getting tinnitus I was going insane , especially at night. I needed the tv on all night, but found a cell phone (cannot tolerate headphones) with background noise (running water) was better and did not bother my wife . Than I started on Gingko about six months after...
