Had tinnitus for 15 years and for many years it was a hissing in my right ear. After coming to terms with the fact that it was not going away I was able to keep it in the background. For 12 years I have worn hearing aids and they aided my hearing loss really well until about 18 months ago when...

I have a copy of my MRI results - I have not as yet had a return visit to my specialist for her interpretation of this report so in the meantime I am left kind of up in the air as to why I am not hearing good and have not been for many months if there is nothing physically wrong. I am relieved...

The word "fullness" is mentioned in quite a number of posts. Could someone explain to me exactly the sensation they experience. Thank you.

Thank you very much for responding to my post much appreciated. I do have tinnitus but the main problem is my hearing or I should say lack of it even with hearing aids. For 8 years with hearing aids I had no problems but now suddenly, even with many adjustments to my hearing aids, I`m not...

I have been waiting for an appointment for an MRI and I was told today my appointment is on the 4th August. While I have been waiting for an appointment I have been feeling pretty confident - now all that has changed now the date has been set. I am now really nervous about the MRI procedure...

1.) What ear(s) is your T in? Right all the time and sometimes in the left. 2.) Would you describe the sound as coming from the ear or do you find it is coming from inside your head (and where in the head- middle, side, back. etc.)? From my ears and sounds at the back of my head sometimes on...

Karen, That`s an interesting point. I am on beta blocker drugs for A-fib and for high blood pressure. It`s a case of if you do not take these meds. blood pressure will rise and A-fib would not be under control either. You can`t win. Yes, our tinnitus sounds are very similar. The...

Karen, It was only after my visit to the specialist and she asked me if any of my tinnitus noises were in 'line' with my pulse and I said sometimes, that I started realising that there was some significance to her question. Previous to her interest I never thought anything about it - it was...

I told my specialist that I only had PT occasionally and she wants me to make a note of the times when this occurs. I`m beginning to wonder now if I have it more often that what I am aware of because the other noises which I have (hissing in my right ear and a roaring sound at the back of my...

My doctor does not get into a discussion about tinnitus maybe because she knows she can`t make out a prescription and it will go away. No one, whether it`s doctors, other professionals or family and friends can perceive what a person with tinnitus is going through and I can understand that...

I am not doing anything - although I am trying to cope with it, so maybe that is doing something. I have to wear hearing aids but they do not mask tinnitus for me. When my tinnitus is at its loudest I try and remember that there are times when it is quieter so I hold on to that.

When I wake up mine is LOUD!! Occasionally it is quiet but very rarely. Some days it will continue loud all the day just the same volume but I do get days when the loudness softens and I have quieter tones. It has only recently become this loud and I am amazed how loud it is - it is...

Hi Karen, Thanks for the information on the TRT something to look into. My PT is periodic - yesterday I had 4 noises - my usual hissing sound in my right ear which I have had from the start of all this, then the PT started up in the same ear and to balance things up a noise started in my left...

Thank you all so much for your replies. I have been on BP meds for 30 years I also have atrial fibrillation (A-fib) so my meds are a combination for treating BP and the A-Fib. I need a lot of space here to list them all!! They are: Sotalol - Adalat - Zestoretic - Lisinipril - Lipitor -...

I have had tinnitus for about 14 years now and like everyone experiences it is very stressful to say the least. For many years I had a hissing sound in my right ear and eventually came to terms with that as it was reasonably quiet but of late other noises have been added to the mix and they are...
