I had a crazy spike after COVID-19 a couple of years ago. This was after 20 years of being habituated to tinnitus, with a few less severe, temporary spikes. It cleared up and went back to baseline after 9 or 10 months. Currently recovering from a second COVID-19 infection, I have a slight...

This is an old thread, but having traveled extensively for many years with tinnitus, I wanted to share my experience. I've had a couple of tinnitus spikes after air travel. One of those spikes completely resolved, although it returned while I was working and living on a ship at sea but...

This happened to me. I had it about six years ago. I went to a doctor; they could find nothing wrong. It went by itself after about a year or so and never came back—a temporary transition of my tinnitus journey. Get checked out by a professional, just in case.

If you have any vision disturbances, you should always go straight to a doctor.

I'm checking in again after nine more months. My tinnitus continues not to bother me, and the spike has not returned. I'd have to remind myself that I have the condition. Habituation and time really can work wonders. So, if you are suffering, hang in there. It may well get better, as it has...

Thought I'd give an update over a year later, and hopefully give others some hope. Somewhere along the way, the tinnitus went back to the manageable baseline that I barely notice. Not sure when that happened, at some point I realized I hadn't thought about the tinnitus for months. I've been...

How are you doing now? Did the tinnitus go back to baseline for you?

I had COVID-19 last December, and Long COVID-19 after. I was partially vaccinated, with mild symptoms. The Long COVID-19 involved palpitations, but nothing too bad. No serious heart complications or anything. Symptoms started to clear in Spring, in May I got a spike in tinnitus that I have...

Annnndddd the spike came back full strength again. I'm in the third month of this now, getting resigned to the fact that this is my new reality. Very depressing, I just can't get away from it. Getting worn down, can't be optimistic about it anymore. Music has been my escape all of my life...

Yes, similar to what I've had for the past two months, after years of a relative stable baseline. It diminished for a couple of days, then came back today. Because it fluctuates and is triggered off by sounds, as opposed to sounds covering it up, its harder to ignore. Breathe deep, distract...

Just to give an update, the recent spike has gone down by 50% in the last couple of days. Don't want to get too hopeful, as it could always go up again. But it's been better to the point where I'm forgetting about it, at times. Perhaps it's the acupuncture combined with the neck release work...

I'm not sure if full self-treatments are possible, also it may be a bit much to do it everyday. I'd say consider it as a supplement to your own work; if someone is going to invest £50/$80 or more per week, they may as well also learn Chi Gung alongside it. Chi Gung is very easy to learn, and...

I'll give my thoughts here, as I'm trying acupuncture for neck/jaw tension, which I believe has caused or contributed towards a tinnitus spike. So notice I said acupuncture to address the neck tension. I did in my neck during training (Muay Thai) the same week as the tinnitus spike occurred, so...

I'm late to this forum, but just have to say that I too am the same age as both of you, got tinnitus in my early 20s which I got very used to, and have recently had a big spike like never before. Hope it has gone back to baseline for you both now?

Hello all, I thought I’d share my story here in the hope of gaining some clarity and much-needed sanity regarding what has been going on. I’ve had tinnitus for a long time, since 1998, in fact. I’m a musician and have spent much of my youth in bands, raves, gigs, and band practices. Need I say...
