My name is Trisha, I've had Tinnitus since I was 45 years old, I'm now 48. I feel strongly that I have this after taking a medication for nerve pain (Gabapentin 1800mg a day) throughout my body and when I stopped taking it ( doctor said it was okay to do so) I got Tinnitus from the stress I believe it put on my brain and body from stopping the medication.
No doctor will agree that it's why I have it but it's either from this or it's from the stress on my brain from the nerve pain throughout my body. I wonder sometimes if it's because I have A.D.D and if anyone else is getting Tinnitus that has A.D.D, also EMR make the high pitch tinnitus that I have, go up really high, and indoor electric heaters.
