    Will You Get Vaccinated for Coronavirus (COVID-19)? Can It Make Tinnitus or Hyperacusis Worse?

    Extreme regrets. I got the vaxx in April to go to Europe. Same night as my first Pfizer shot, my tinnitus skyrocketed. Stayed high all the way till my trip. Then, remarkably, the tinnitus diminished significantly during my six weeks in Europe. But after I got back, it ramped back up again...

    Post Your Current Medication / Supplement Stack

    Okay, but what's the supplement that they used? The study says that it's "commercially available" but doesn't say which one. How is one supposed to find it, when there are billions of supplements "commercially available"?

    Tinnitus Seems to Be Somehow Linked to a Crucial Bodily Function, Studies Hint

    Indeed. I started taking melatonin a few nights ago -- not for tinnitus volume per se, but because my spiked tinnitus had completely destroyed my sleep schedule -- to the point that I was lucky if I could even get three hours of sleep per night. (I took NeoCitran Night for a few evenings, but...

    Desperately Need Help with Reactive Tinnitus

    I would say that it's from the COVID-19 jab based on it being so reactive. I developed tinnitus in 2011/12, which slowly went down over the years. But it wasn't reactive. Some six/seven weeks ago I got my first-ever COVID-19 jab, and my tinnitus spiked back to where it was when I first got it...

    Tinnitus Seems to Be Somehow Linked to a Crucial Bodily Function, Studies Hint

    This is exactly my situation. But worse. I feel sleepy, but each time I feel myself nearly falling asleep, my body "jolts" me awake, as if in unconscious fear of a tinnitus spike. And sure enough, when I do fall asleep, I do wake up with a massive tinnitus spike. Last night, that happened...

    Flying & Tinnitus

    I developed tinnitus in 2011/12. Over the years, it went down to the point where it was hardly noticeable; only enough that I still needed some white noise to sleep. But it didn't affect me during the day. I travelled overseas to Europe in 2017, 2018, and 2019. And on each occasion, without...

    Tinnitus Since Moderna COVID-19 Vaccines Along with Several Other Lasting Symptoms

    My tinnitus (which had died down almost to nothing) permanently spiked back up when I got my first-ever Pfizer dose some 6 weeks ago. It spiked the very day that I got the vaxx (late in the evening; I got the vaxx in the early morning). The vaxx is definitely the cause. I can only say that, for...

    Massive Tinnitus Noise-Level Increase After Pfizer COVID-19 Vaccination?

    Just one more follow-up: has anyone who developed tinnitus from, or had their tinnitus massively spiked by, a COVID-19 vaccine tried antihistamines? Over the past few weeks, I've taken NeoCitran with its old-school diphenhydramine hydrochloride antihistamine a few times before bed (really just...

    Poll: Residual Inhibition from Head Tapping / "The Reddit Tinnitus Cure"

    After tapping, I get basically a second, maybe two full seconds, of tinnitus going way down to near silence, then quickly back up to where it was. No distortions. Doesn't get worse. (Tinnitus since 2011/12, which died down very gradually to a negligible volume after about 5 years, and...

    Factors Possibly Contributing to My Tinnitus: COVID-19 Vaccine, Dental Work, Stress, Noise, Low B12

    Which ear do you have the tinnitus in? My tinnitus (which I got in 2011/12, but died down to almost nothing after 5 years, was reactivated to screeching levels the evening of the very same day I got my first Pfizer COVID-19 shot, some three weeks ago -- after 6 years of near silence). That was...

    Auditory Mirror Therapy for Treatment of Tinnitus

    That's unfortunate. It would appear that this doesn't work. Volume of tinnitus is, in my experience, the only thing that matters; it makes all the difference between constant suffering versus normality, and every point in between.

    Will You Get Vaccinated for Coronavirus (COVID-19)? Can It Make Tinnitus or Hyperacusis Worse?

    I resisted getting the shot for a long time. But just over three weeks ago, I finally got my first Pfizer jab, in order to be able to travel. My tinnitus, which I acquired ten years ago, had slowly diminished to a very quiet, completely manageable level for the last six years or so. But...

    Auditory Mirror Therapy for Treatment of Tinnitus

    This seems like a stroke of genius. I hope it actually works. Someone posted a comment in a different thread about how one of the causes of tinnitus could be a disruption of the brain mechanism by which the ears are calibrated/aligned/balanced, in terms of audio reception. This would also...

    Massive Tinnitus Noise-Level Increase After Pfizer COVID-19 Vaccination?

    Something interesting I've noticed. When my post-vaxx tinnitus is at its worst, I also find that I tend to be experiencing some shortness of breath (and I never experienced shortness of breath before getting vaxxed) and occasionally premature ventricular contractions. Then, if I do some sort of...

    Massive Tinnitus Noise-Level Increase After Pfizer COVID-19 Vaccination?

    It HAS resolved for some people? That's encouraging. So far, any thread I've found has only had comments from people who say that it has not resolved for them. I will take your word for it that some people have said that it resolved, though if you recall anyone mentioning a favorable change and...

    Massive Tinnitus Noise-Level Increase After Pfizer COVID-19 Vaccination?

    Hello. Back in 2011/2012, I developed tinnitus in my left ear from an earwax plug which I neglected and left sitting in my ear too long, until suddenly the high-pitched hissing/white started. After the doctor removed the earwax plug, the noise persisted permanently. It took several years before...
