I’ve been through the whole gamut of doctors, ENTs, CAT scans, etc. No one gives a damn. Finally, I purchased some very expensive hearing aids with Bluetooth. They “erased” the tinnitus in a way because I listen to music or YouTube or whatever to distract myself from the obnoxious tinnitus...

I had the exact same scenario happen to me. Went to bed. Woke up at 3 am with raging tinnitus. Right side worse. Freaked me out so bad I didn’t work for year and half. That was 6 years ago. Noone knows why. Noone cares. I still have it. It’s more pulsatile tinnitus really. It has a pattern to...

Been there. Only thing finally helped was blue tooth hearing aids. I can’t live without them now.

Hearing aids with Bluetooth has kept me sane. Anytime tinnitus gets annoying I turn on music or listen to youtube, talk shows, even audible books. You need to get your mind off of it.

I’ve had tinnitus since 2016. My journey has significantly improved since then! Mostly now it just sounds like air pressure which changes intensity all the time. Sometimes it’s very unnoticeable but I will admit that severe stress can make it much more intense. Getting hearing aids was a...

Stop dismissing Tinnitus as if it’s irrelevant. Maybe the insurance companies are controlling the outcome for each of us.

It’s ok to feel that way. I did at first, five years ago. Now I have a constant sizzling, air pressure sound that can get louder or quiet down. My PT and T has a pattern. I know it’s all about blood flow intensity and my body position. I am 66 and I can also hear my blood flow, like water in...

I don’t need a cold shower. Certain foods spike my t, pressure on my face does also. I’m 66 so I think it’s blood flow. Drinking lots of water helps me. My t has a personality all its own. I understand its moods. But your suggestion is a good one.

My tinnitus/pulsatile tinnitus always spikes after a shower for about 10 minutes. My theory is the hot water makes blood flow faster, making the sound louder. I have had this condition for five years. I believe it’s coming from my neck. I have pulsatile tinnitus at night laying down in bed or...

I invested in blue tooth hearing aids after having tinnitus for five years. My quality of life has greatly improved.

Thanks for the reference.

Yes.

Hi everyone, I am tinnitus and pulsatile tinnitus person but today I am asking for feedback on my father-in-law. He has had a history of hearing loss, severe, some occasions of vertigo. He has hearing aids. He would turn the tv up to full volume in order to hear without them, that’s just to...

I have T and PT. When I press my neck, when the clicking sound is happening, as opposed to PT sound, it increases the sound as I press. My PT is always loudest when I sit too long, lay down in bed or after getting out of a hot shower. Stretching my back while sitting causes PT temporarily to be...

Wow. You have been through much. I am 62 and got T a little over a year ago and later on the floaters. Long story short, it is scary to come down with these new health issues. But, I am learning to live with both and I am an artist. I try to count my blessings on good days but I still get...

I have the same symptoms. I did not have a virus or noise issue. I was told by one ENT it could be in the neck. I have had a CT scan and MRI. Nothing found. Next week I go for a yearly checkup with The ENT and consult with a chiropractor. I also noticed that sitting too long especially at my...

Sorry you are going through this. When I first got T back in February 2015 I remember eating Chinese food when I got home the noise just exploded in my head. I don't think it was just a coincidence. I hope your tonight is will calm down for you and time I know mine has and it was hell at first.

Interesting you said you were moving. Maybe something occurred in you neck, spine and or back? I came down with it in my sleep. Have had it over a year. I am beginning to think it may be something to do with the above mentioned. Have had all the usual tests done. Nothing found. Sitting too...

What's the alternative!? I plan on living a few more years on this planet. So, what won't kill me will make me stronger. Mine has calmed down somewhat, so i am thankful for that. It can be unpredictable at times. I have also thought as the first reply that if we cope with this Tinnitus then we...

If I wake up in the morning and lay in bed for a while, I always hear either a sizzling sound, slight heartbeat in ear or a watery sound as if I am listening to a brook. Or, it could sound like air being released under pressure. This is usually always in my right ear going on a year now...

My T always gets louder after a hot shower. Then gradually gets less intrusive. My theory is the hot water makes my blood flow more, hence, more noise.

Sorry about your distress. I came down with T a little over a year ago. Woke me up out of my sleep. Went through much of what you describe. Most of us had no clue what T was. Until we got it. Lack of information on it makes it that much more difficult. I never heard of it! Mine was not from...

Hi there, I say try it, something may work for you. Greetings from Loudon NH! I have tried several approaches and after a year, my T has calmed down on its own. I still don't know what caused it after two ENTs, MRI and CT scan. Came on suddenly one night while I was sleeping. Was a scary thing...

I have often wondered why T/PT has been put in a category, going by the professional community's dismissal of our suffering, that is, has been so neglected in terms of research and finding a cure? When compared to other health problems for humanity, this one in particular has been retarded...

Hi Steven, I would be interested in hearing more about your t and experience with a chiropractor. I am scheduled to meet with one soon and wonder if I should cancel out of fear it will be of no use. Thanks.

Maybe for now you should get an anti anxiety prescription. As time goes on, you can cut back or cut the meds out all together. I have had pt/t for a year. Came in like the devil. The heartbeating sound was more pronounced in the beginning. Now it mostly feels like pressure causing my noise...

When my T settles down that is when I get the crackling. Then it may get quiet for a while. It is the intense air blowing sound that I hate. Buzzing, watery brook sound ,high pitch sounds too. So crackling is ok with me if I have a choice.

Read the many valuable posts here on this site. They are full of information you may not get from a health professional. Good luck. I will add that in the beginning of my T/PT I took my already prescribed anti anxiety pill. Lorazepam. You may want to consider something like this in order to cope...

Hi, I came down with PT and T last Feb '15. Still don't know why. But, I was interested in your post when you said you were a digital artist. Lately, I have gone back on my Mac to do art or photos. I notice when I spend several hours sitting at it and working, my T is the worst. I am going to...

Sometimes I get so angry at how many negatives I read in this site. I have been dealing with PT since February 2015. It was an angry beast when it first appeared, and for no apparent reason that I can pinpoint. But over the year it has changed into several different animals, so to speak. I just...

I still have no explanation from the medical people as to what or why this very invasive and upsetting noise happened to me last February 2015. I still have it, but I can live with it. Of course, I hope for the best and have to believe that it won't get worse. To have silence again, would...

That is a good point! Still, it is a strange phenomenon. The humming around the globe and in our heads.

Everything has changed. The volume, intrusiveness, scariness, debiliting effects have gone way down. On a scale from 1 to 10, last year it was 10. Today it is about 2.5. Some days I feel like it is gone. Sometimes it is more noticeable but it seems to happen less and less.

I intend to write an update on where I am at with my PT/and or T. I feel blessed that it is much better, I am cautiously optimistic, however.

Been browsing all day on my computer about ETs and such. Has become sort of my newest interest in this complex world we live in. This article is sort of interesting about a hum that can be heard only by a few people and medical people are quick to suggest it is Tinnitus. Maybe it is and maybe...

Been almost a year since I became a member of this site. My T has improved greatly since I first got it February 2015. There is hope.

Thank you for your information. Hopefully someday soon we will all get help for this noise. Some days are better than others. I am better than I was last February. Still no conclusions.

Interesting article mentions possible treatment for tinnitus. http://www.timesofisrael.com/us-navy-buys-israeli-brain-zapper-to-treat-vets/

Engineer: can you describe the sounds of your T. I have constant sounds of air blowing out of my ear, mostly the right, watery sound like a fish tank, louder when I am sitting, much lower volume when I stand or walking, buzz upon waking, goes away when I get out of bed, and sometimes a heartbeat...

Do you have any idea what may have caused your Tinnitus?

Is there a "gag order" in place? I have received 0 help from my PCP, ENT who ordered me a CT scan, audiologist, nurse etc. I have a copy of the CT scan I am thinking about looking at it in my computer. Could be interesting to see myself in a different mode. I am seeing another ENT, next in...

Nope, I think it is globally. I have often wondered why. Is it because T is too close to the brain, is the profit margin too low, is it easy for us to live with compared to cancer, are they just too lazy, are they afraid of being sued? What the hell is it, when this Tinnitus is such a hellish...

OK Thanks. It is interesting. How about another idea? "How many of us have been dismissed by the health professionals when we come to them for help."

Thank you for this visual. Graphs are always a great way of making a statement. I think it would be interesting to do a survey and then graph it to show what people think brought on their tinnitus.

Mine is always louder when I am sitting on the couch. I have been diagnosed with PT. When I am standing it goes away. But I also get the heartbeat sound too. I think it has to do with blood flow, or arteries and kinked veins. If blood is not flowing smooth there is turbulence which makes the...

Bless you. I hope everyone suffering from this T will get relief soon.

I am very happy for you. I did have some spikes several weeks back. But that seems to have ended. Sounds like you are on you road to peace. ❤️

Thank you. I will keep you posted and have every intention of remaining on TT. ❤️

I thought you would like to read some positive news. Last February I came down with this alien attack in my right ear, a noise that shook me to my core. I am sure you all know what I am talking about. It was a hellish experience. Now, a little over two months, it is going away. Everyday, it has...

Having a CAT scan next week. My ENT said that the neck absolutely causes Tinnitus. I have spent countless hours for years doing graphic design and illustration on my computer. Sometimes when I move from the screen for a minute and look at my desk my neck cracks terribly. When I lay down, or sit...

February 17, 2015. I woke up one morning at 3am with a roaring lion in my right ear. Prior to this, I was overly tired for A week and sick to my stomach for a couple of days. Nasty bug? As of today, it has gone to a very low sound. ????? Getting a CAT scan in a week.

I quit in 2002. Got T last February!

My ENT is sending me for a CAT scan. He also told me and my husband to hold off on getting hearings aids. My T came down on me like a roaring lion last Fenruary. It morphed from that to a watery, crackling sound. I think from the story I described to him about my T, I got the gut feeling he...

I just gave a donation to eye floaters this way. I would give a donation and more than $10!

Ok. Thanks. Next time I will make sure of side effects. Thanks for the heads up. I think my T may be due to eustacian tube. Not sure. Getting a CAT scan.

I guess I read recently that there are over 400 MEDS that can contribute to T. Have no clue what they are off the top of my head. Point being I am 61 years old and never knew or heard about Tinnitus. There clearly is reason for that.
