    Topiramate (Topamax)

    One of the uncommon side effects listed is T. Although I think T is listed as a potential side effect on many of the drugs that have been tried in the past and have worked for some people. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Topiramate

    Tinnitus, TMJ, Headaches, Neck Pain, Facial Pain, etc. — Possible Treatment

    Thanks @applewine for your reply. I never really noticed any consistent pain in my jaw or neck. I had the popping in the left side of my jaw associated with TMD for 7-8 years before I finally went to the dentist to see about treatment. When the T first started I also had severe blocking of...

    Tinnitus, TMJ, Headaches, Neck Pain, Facial Pain, etc. — Possible Treatment

    I have suspected that my T originated from having TMJ. I was fitted by my dentist with a night guard that ever so slightly moved my lower jaw forward. It also prevented any grinding of my teeth while I slept. I wore this guard off and on for several months, then out of the blue I got T. Just...

    I Am Now Pretty Sure My Tinnitus Came From TMJ

    I also believe that my T came from TMJ. I have had a popping in the left side for several years. It was getting worse so I went and saw a TMJ dentist and he fitted me with a mouth guard to wear at night. He also very slightly ground several teeth to promote my bite to move ever so slightly...

    Retigabine (Trobalt, Potiga) — General Discussion

    @SoulStation I see your opinion on this. I haven't started RTG yet but I'm following every post on this thread, which has me thinking about my T constantly. I haven't even started the trial yet but just thinking about it causes me to focus on the sound and monitor it for fluctuations etc...

    N-Acetylcysteine (NAC)

    I have been taking the time-release 600mg NAC 3X daily for the last 2.5 weeks. It is no cure, but I do notice a decent reduction in the volume and annoyance. The time release capsules say that they last 8 hours, so I've been taking one 600mg at 7am, another at 3pm, and a last one when I go to...

    Hi Everyone! New Member Here.

    Thanks to each of you for your replies. I have been taking between 1200-1800mg of NAC for a little more than a week now and I notice a difference. I am taking the time-released tablet and notice a pick up in volume and annoyance if I wait too long to take the next dose. I still haven't filled...

    Hi Everyone! New Member Here.

    I'm a new member to TT. It's been great to read about everyone and find support in the struggle that is T. I woke up from a nap on Sept 21st with loud T in my left ear. Went to the ENT the next morning, prednisone for 2 weeks after that. Audiogram shows hearing loss in the 4-5kz range in...

    Gabapentin (Neurontin)

    I had a really bad spike on Sunday and again yesterday. I took 300mg Gabapentin and within an hour and half the spike had come down dramatically. I think other posts are correct wherein they said that it can be effective in reducing some of your T but only in some people. It is not proven to...

    Random Spikes?

    My t started in late September 2014. I woke up from a nice Sunday nap with the incredibly loud t in my left ear. I did the whole ENT, prednisone, hearing test etc. Hearing test did show loss in the 3,500-5,000hz range, just in the left ear. The t became much more mild and I felt like I could...

    Flupirtine — Another Potassium Channel Opener

    @Viking Were you able to get through to anyone from the article above? I read through it and looked at their presentation slides as well. They definitely promote utilizing more than one drug to treat T.

    Retigabine (Trobalt, Potiga) — General Discussion

    I am new to this forum and to T. I've read every single post in this thread and have been very interested in Potiga/Trobalt. My T started in late September 2014 for no reason, just woke up from a nap and the ringing was incredibly loud. Did the ENT thing - Prednisone, hearing test, etc...
