- Cause of Tinnitus
- slept next to air conditioner for prolonged period -Menieres
I've had tinnitus since 1990 and was diagnosed with and have been treated for Meniere's Disease since about 1994. It started in 1990 from sleeping close to a very cold air conditioner in a dormitory. The fact that I played very loud guitar in bands for years prior to 1990 could be a contributing factor though as well as the fact that I worked around very loud machinery for most of my working years.
I have found nothing that relieves the tinnitus, but I've grown so used to it that I rarely notice it unless I'm thinking about it. I also have found only one thing that has been somewhat effective for the dizziness and vertigo, and that's Antivert; and it's not really all that effective. At least not as effective as I'd like it to be. LOL
So, I guess I'm more interested in finding remedies for the dizziness than for the tinnitus. But, if I run across something that looks like it might work and is safe enough to justify trying, I'm definitely game for trying.
