Thank you for sharing. I will give it a shot. As someone from the Netherlands, I might be able to participate.

I fly a lot with severe tinnitus. Most modern airplanes are not that loud. I wear some earplugs and chew bubblegum, which helps decompress the ears.

My friend says I should move to the jungle. Always crickets and animal sounds.

I've flown a few times since my tinnitus. I have 18 dB and 25 dB earplugs with and use them accordingly. Chewing gum helps with depressurizing so I have a pack with me. I've noticed that big variables for cabin sound levels are the planes and flying conditions. But with those earplugs it...

Is it a possibility to test the waters? If you can't manage even with your precautions, just quit. No shame in trying and quitting.

Hey, Your situation sounds very similar to mine. Mine has steadily gotten worse over the years. At first I could ignore it in some situations. But since a year or so it is ever present. I can only give you words of encouragement. Mentally I was in a terrible place. Since a while I have...

Have you flown before with tinnitus? I was very scared to resume flying but I’ve been fine doing it again. About the dinners and on site: do you have to be at loud places or can you choose the locations?

I’m almost 3 years in. My tinnitus is severe. I hear it always and it’s unmaskable. I do enjoy life, but it never feels like I can fully enjoy the moment. At least my suicidal thoughts have subsided quite a bit. I’m having them once every few months. Before I had them every week or so. I...

We’ll know more about the effects of FX-322 on tinnitus after the current 208 trial. Since there will be TFI measures done as a secondary endpoint. The results should be in by Q3/2022 or Q1/2023.

@Philip83, it’s en vivo in pre clinical research (mice). I do love that image.

@Shelbylynn, I am sorry to say that @Allan1967 isn’t with us anymore.

Hi Ezri, welcome to the forum. I find that CBD helps with relaxing. This helps to fall asleep and I believe my tinnitus behaves better. What also helps I have a couple of Bluetooth speakers. One plays white noise and the other has beach sounds. More is more when it comes to speakers. Not...

I am sorry you have to endure this. Be very careful with your ears. My two years anniversary is coming up and even though I've been fastidious with protecting my hearing, It's been getting worse and fast so. For me there are two version of tinnitus: maskable livable tinnitus and unmaskable...

Wow, I was under the impression they had a failed clinical trial and abandoned the drug. This is great news!

I’ve decided to not take a vaccination. I can’t go to bars, restaurants or even a somewhat busy park. It will be a long shot for me get COVID-19 since I rarely leave the house. I don’t like the risk/reward in this scenario.

Don't do it! Your hearing is compromised. Don't listen to people without hearing issues on this matter.

@Bobby B, thank you for the great insights. It's much appreciated. The clinic told me they would look for suitable alternatives if I had my doubts about certain medicine. You seem pretty informed about the subject. Are there any on the list about which I have to be concerned or do you think...

@Simon85, thank you for your input. I have decided to skip the operation and just join my friend on a holiday to Turkey. I am bringing sun screen and a hat.

It’s an up and down ride. I have some very difficult weeks followed by much better ones. I find staying away from even moderate noisy environments seems to really help. Protect your ears and hold on. Help is coming.

Hello fellow Tinnitus Talk members, First of all, I'm very grateful for Tinnitus Talk. This forum has been my sole source of knowledge and it has helped me immensely during the dark first year. I've had tinnitus since December 2019. I left a party with ringing ears. It never stopped. A...

I had a similar experience. I had fleeting tinnitus quite regularly just before my noise trauma. This should have been a warning sign for me. I was using earphones too much in a noisey environment. A party was the straw that broke the camel's back.

Hey rkp, Welcome to the forum. How noticeable is the ringing during the daytime, inside and outside?

What I mean is that $2,000 per white noise generator is insane. It's like a $90 pizza margherita.

Not a strong point since those white noise generators are also a scam.
