I guess I don't know if it is going away, but it sure sounds like it and that is really great. I feel like my tinnitus has gone down in the last 2 years, but I think my brain has just learned to listen around it mainly. That is different from noticing a sudden decrease. Maybe your ears have...

It seems more likely that your sinus infection is causing you trouble. Just hang in there, and see what happens when it goes away. It seems like a lot of things list tinnitus as a very rare side effect. I have been taking an antibiotic doxycycline monohydrate for 4 weeks now to clear up my...

That is kinda of awesome :)

I was given Citalopram after I started having severe anxiety at the beginning of my tinnitus. I have 2 small children. I pretty much can't panic every day. I felt better after a month although I don't know if it was the drug or the fact that the prednisone I took for sudden hearing loss was...

My tinnitus does seem to change with my cycle. I have a copper IUD so no hormones with that, but my own hormones seem to make a difference. During the first part of my cycle where estrogen increases my t seems to get lounder, but after day 14 it usually goes down. I wonder if it is the...

That dream makes me smile because I had a similar-ish dream and I was not taking anything at the time. Looking up at the sky, seeing that the moon looked really bright and large, wait too bright and large! There were aliens in my dream that had knocked the moon out of orbit, but yeah meteors I...

Well, I don't know. Who knows who the next person on the button list would be? Ok, I know you said it was someone on death row, but it reminds me of a Twilight Zone episode. Gotta watch that karma. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Button,_Button_(The_Twilight_Zone) Arthur and Norma Lewis are...

I was told that quite often SSHL resolves on its own. The prednisone would only help if your body was still trying to fight the virus by lowering the inflamation. It sounds like your body fought it off on its own, otherwise you would have hearing loss. It sounds like things are fine now.

I am glad that everything is looking good for you :) If they didn't see anything wrong with your ear and your hearing is normal that seems like a good sign that things are going to resolve. BTW, I like the cat in your avatar.

That is great that it seems to be getting better! Hopefully they will also take a look in your ear to see if you have any wax. I wasn't trying to scare you with a horror story, it is just that I had never even heard of SSHL, and I wish I would have know more and insisted on getting into the...

You absolutely need that hearing test ASAP! I had sudden hearing loss this last September and that was exactly how it started. I had no history of ear problems before this happened. If it is sudden hearing loss they will probably prescribe prednisone. I would imagine if your hearing test...

That sounds similar to me except they had me take mine all at once 6 pills for like 4 days then down to 3 pills and so on. I just warned everyone that I would be rage filled for a while, lol. They gave me 2 tapers so it went on for a month. It seems worth a shot, although don't be worried if...

NiNyu, My left ear is back up to baseline levels except for a dip to 45db between 500 and 1000 HZ. It is kind of crazy looking on an audiogram. I actually got a hearing aid because I wanted to see if it would help, but I hear fine out of that ear. It is very different from when I first had...

I have taken both of these, and I still take the Fluticasone Propionate because I have allergies. It is the best allergy medicine that I have ever taken and I love it. I have no side effects from it. I also took prednisone for a month after my sudden hearing loss and tinnitus began. I...

I have tinnitus only in my left ear. Mine was caused by sudden hearing loss. They don't know what caused it, I just suddenly lost hearing in that ear, and then most of my hearing came back over the next month while I was taking prednisone, but I have enough hearing loss that apparently I have...
