As in the headline question. I have been taking Metformin (Siofor) for two and a half weeks (first 2 x 500 mg, now - for two days - 3 x 500 mg). The reason is insulin resistance.
For about a week now, my tinnitus has been louder, it annoys me more, I use masking sounds more and wonder over and over again when the treatment will be successful.
And I had already reached the stage that sometimes it was close to silence and - miracle of miracles! - I was able to forget about the topic several times a day, I don't know for how long (I tend to experience it as a typical OCD - ruminating).
Could the Metformin have an impact on this or is it a coincidence?
In addition, I stopped basing my diet in 50% on simple sugars (compulsive compulsion disappeared), and I eat about 1200-1500 kcal a day (before that it was much more). So a lot of changes happened at once.
