Personally, I didn’t take any medication—just a lot of struggle and prayer through it all. I am much better now, still not 100%, but I’m amazed at how far I’ve come. Keep your head up; I assure you, it gets better.
No treatments. It literally got better. I remember the first 2 months I couldn’t hear high pitched noises with an audio I would use, now I can. I still can’t hear the way I once did but I adjusted and healed
I also can relate to having good and bad days as far as hearing and T. Sometimes I’ll feel like it’s worse than other days, but for the most part I’m just grateful I’m not deaf and T is much lower. I’m good & you will be too I truly believe that
@NL50 You’re going to be fine trust me and trust God on that. At week 3 for me I wanted to vanish this earth. It was so extremely bad. The HL, the T, and hyperacusis was too much for me to tolerate. I still have all symptoms but as I mentioned they have healed.
@2049v I’m about 8 months out from a severe acute acoustic trauma with gunshots. I used to hate my life so much, but I’m doing a lot better. Still have Tinnitus, and hearing loss, but it’s gotten better! Thank the lord
Hey, man. I went through a SEVERE episode of tinnitus, hearing loss, and noise sensitivity because of gunfire. At first, I dropped about 60 dB. Now, I’m at about 25 dB loss in high frequencies. I still have a bit of noise sensitivity and hearing loss, but that’s gotten better, thank God! Don’t...
Thank you brother. I will pray for you also. I think you will be fine. I went through so much acute acoustic trauma that night... over an hour of non-stop gunfire with high-caliber rifles. By the end of it my hearing was horrible, and tinnitus was insanely loud. Now I still have high frequency...
AK-47 is extremely loud. I was around 700 rounds of one of those guns without hearing protection. I kid you not, I went through so much acoustic trauma.
It’s been 3 months, my left ear is completely dead to high frequencies. I have loud tinnitus.
I’m 24 and honestly I just threw my life...
I have acoustic trauma from gunshots too (700) shots ar15 no ear pro. I was drunk made a huge mistake 3 months ago.. can I live a normal life? I hate my hearing issues
I wish I could be dead. I’m not okay with the idea of living like this forever. I’m 24 and my whole world got flipped upside down. I want to commit suicide. I can’t handle being hard of hearing. I messed up so bad.
I’m so happy it’s improved so much since day 1. Still not 100%. I really pray for that. It’s still noticeably there and disturbs me a lot. Yes, left is blue and my tinnitus is louder in that ear (I also have tinnitus in my right ear).
Thank you. If you could give me your opinion on my audiogram that would be nice. I think my hearing is awful, maybe it’s mostly in my head? I hate my life man fk
First audiogram was taken 3 days after my accident, and the second one was taken 6 weeks post accident. There has been improvement. The only medication I ever took was Ciprofloxacin (regret taking this) & Lipoflavonoid for a couple of days. I’m not taking any medication currently. I want to heal...
I want to upload my audio grams here but don’t know how. Yeah it’s a 30dB loss in high frequencies in left ear. ENT said it’s not bad and I don’t need hearing aids.. maybe this is a mental thing for me? I can hear but it’s not the way I want I guess
I don’t like spreading negativity but I just wish someone told me that I would heal but it takes time… the doctors say this is permanent I just seriously can’t do this anymore
I want us to heal. I can’t ever stop regretting that day. I’m dealing with so much depression. Those gunshots ruined my hearing I can’t take it anymore. I’m only 24 and now I just don’t want to be alive
