So I noticed something earlier, I had one 20 oz can of Red Bull and, when the caffeine, taurine, and guarana reached their peak concentrations in my body, the low-pitched T in my right ear became significantly quieter and became high-pitched.

The effect went away within 30 minutes, so I went out and bought 2 more 20 oz cans. I just drank them both, and, about an hour after, it happened again.

What could this mean?
 
I've been drinking Red Bull nearly every day for about 4 years and it (amongst other energy drinks) has done nothing to reduce my t.
But, you know- like the other poster said, we all have random cures that work for one person and not for another.
 
Taurine does the trick... same here.

Taurine has a calming effect like benzos.
 
I think it's the Taurine. I take a lot of Taurine throughout the day, and it works to calm the brain. A neurologist who also treats epilepsy told me about Taurine and the amino acid L-Theanine. He advises his patients to take Taurine when they sense a seizure coming on and suggested that I take plenty of both supplements, as there's no way to reach a toxic amount. I take quite a lot, and it really helps keep the volume down. I also drink Red Bull once, and sometimes twice a day, with no noticeable effect.
