    Pre-Existing Tinnitus and Pregnancy

    I’ve had tinnitus since March, it’s not as bad as it used to be but I just found out I’m expecting, I’m honestly so f*cking scared. It’s kind of taking a toll on my mental health.

    Is Tinnitus Neurological If You Don’t Know How You Got It?

    Yeah, I went to one and everything came back normal. My hearing came back above average for my age, they did some weird test that test the outer hairs in your cochlea and it came back normal, they did a test for hidden hearing loss came back normal. The only thing I can think of is the ear...

    Is Tinnitus Neurological If You Don’t Know How You Got It?

    Ya I’ve tried looking at that. It’s a little complicated. I wasn’t on any meds or take any meds and wasn’t subjected to loud sounds in the days leading up. Just really nervous on why.

    Is Tinnitus Neurological If You Don’t Know How You Got It?

    I don’t know how I got tinnitus, I just woke up March 17th to high hissing sound. From there on out I went weeks with a lot of changes that have genuinely freaked me out. It’s now a high hiss and I hope it stays that way. I guess what freaks me out is, is this a neurological issue...? Or in...

    Ringing Right Ear for 7 Days After Using Q-Tips to Clear Earwax — Advice Wanted, Thank You

    I would honestly go to a doctor and have them look in your ear to make sure you don’t have impaction of wax/hurt your ear drum. Do not use any kind of OTC medications in your ear right now and that includes hydrogen peroxide, they’re ototoxic which can create all sorts of issues. I say that...

    Visual Snow and Tinnitus

    Oh, I’ve had BFEP for years but it’s never bothered me until I read this thread so really really freaked myself out a lot. I do not want to get VS on top of tinnitus. I can barely handle my tinnitus, ear pain, and constant fullness right now. I just can’t handle anymore weird health issues...

    Stupidly Took One 220mg Aleve (Naproxen) — Tinnitus Is Now Slightly Higher Pitched

    Try to relax okay? We’re all here for you. I really think it could be just a short term spike from the meds (that is common for NSAIDs). Try to not worry too much, try to watch some tv to get it off your mind (I know that’s easier said than done). If you ever need anything, feel free to message...

    If Tinnitus Goes Away, Does It Happen Instantly or in a Gradual Manner?

    I would like to say it could be a gradual process but I have no idea... I’m in week 5 right now. Tinnitus started randomly, 2 weeks later I ended up having an ear infection/retracted ear drum. Tinnitus is in both ears but seeks to fluctuate between ears. I did have a day of silence...but the...

    @Bill Bauer so Tinnitus isn’t produced by the ears? So ear infection or this Eustachian tube dysfunction thing couldn’t have caused it?
