    Sudden Onset of Pulsatile Tinnitus — It's Kept Coming and Going

    I have regular tinnitus and over the years I have had symptoms of pulsatile off/on. It's seem to come on when I am stressed. So I do a 7-10 minute meditation to calm me down and it helps. My cardiologists monitors it. He feels it is common & nothing wrong with my heart. Maybe a cardiologist...

    Talking Tinnitus — a U.K. Expo in Birmingham on Saturday, 15th September, 2018

    My question is directed to Don McFerran or anyone else who might be able to answer: Plaquenil is what caused my tinnitus. It was prescribed for lupus. What, if any, is there a physical difference from getting tinnitus from medication as opposed to someone who got it from a noise or other...

    Tapping/Popping — GONE!

    That's correct, Plaquenil caused it. I have lupus and back in the 1980's it worked well to control the lupus. After a few years I had to go off it becaused it created a panic disorder. In 2014, after years of fighting my doctors, I agreed to take it again. But I could stop if there where any...

    Tapping/Popping — GONE!

    I have had consistent tinnitus noise since 2014 from a medication. But prior to that, back in 2009 I started having tapping/popping noise in my right ear. It came and went until 2016. My story is all hindsight. But I thought maybe it would be useful to someone else. Basically, I am pretty sure...

    Inversion Table

    Thank you for your logical input. I have since talked to my chiropractor and he explained that it can be used not only vertical but also horizontal. So I feel okay with that.

    Inversion Table

    Does anyone use an Inversion Table? I am thinking about getting one to relieve my sciatica. But I'm not sure if it will have a negative affect on my tinnitus. I'm concerned because of being upside down. My intention to buying one is not for the tinnitus.

    Flonase (Fluticasone)

    I have had tinnitus for over 1 year. I got it from taking Plaquenil. The past month my ears have been blocked (probably from swimming) and the doctor wants me to use flonase to unblock them. I am hesitant to use it because I am afraid it will make the tinnitus worse. I am wondering if anyone...

    Tapping Noise Can Be Resolved — Yeah!

    Chelles - My tapping comes and goes. I get it every few months. If I didn't use one of my remedies it would probably stay 24/7. I try to nip it in the bud as soon as I get it. I never heard of stapedial myoclonus. I goggled it and it sounds like that is what I might have. What kind of doctor...

    Tapping Noise Can Be Resolved — Yeah!

    Chelles - You describe your sound as twitching. My noise is more of a tapping or clicking. So I'm not sure if it's the same thing. The plugs I use are a very light beige colored foam and shaped like a cylinder. They are about 3/4 inch long. I get them at any drug store, grocery store, etc. and...

    Tapping Noise Can Be Resolved — Yeah!

    I have had continual T since 2007 but more pronounced since March 2014. I get various different sounds. About every 3-4 months, over the past 5 years, I have been hearing a tapping sound (like Morse code) in my right ear. Research tells me this sound is like a cramp in the ear somewhere. Here...
