Cause of Tinnitus
Infection and earphone use
So I have just gone from my T raging for a week to it dropping to almost ZERO for about 48 hours to waking up tonight to the most insanely loud level of T I can ever imagine ! And I mean so loud I feel I am insane ! It is painful. I can hardly function .
I put some OTOMIZE in one ear before bed because my Dr diagnosed yet another inflamed ear canal . The ear drum is fine he says. I wonder if it is that ?
The only other thing is that I ate some pomegranite before bed...oh and cheese.
This is seriously bad now.I will not be able to live this way.
I will report back if it worsens or gets better .
I am glad to have your support .
 
Try to check out that medicine sadly there are ETN or doctors that prescribe meds that make tinnitus worse,
also check your diet, people sometimes dont find a relation..
but... Salt, Sugar, MSG do make tinnitus worse.
try to sleep well too!
 
I understand. My noise is insanely loud high pitched right now. It could be neck muscle related or upper cervical instability I'm thinking. I don't think it is all inner ear.
 
Interesting about the neck pain . I do have a lot of it. Also I was eati gin bed last night a lot. These spikes are getting much worse.But the latest dip was great.
Anyway let us hope today is better for us all. Best to you all. Thanks for listening
 
I was prescribed otomize but i didn't use it as one of the ingredients is neomycin which is otoxic. I went to an audiologist a few weeks later and he said my canal looked fine so i guess whatever it was just cleared up. Always check what gp's are prescribing as most don't seem to have any idea about t.
 
Cheers Sam. Boy am i suffering now. Both ears blocked with very dulked hearing and T so loud I could actually weep .Life is a bitch .
 
Try steam inhalation to unblock your tubes tonight and tomorrow and see if it helps you.
I know how hard it can be and real mental torture but take reasurance that better days are not far away....lots of love glynis
 
Thank you Glynis I will try that .
I had a swab done on my ears yesterday so waiting on results but i expect them to say 'no infection' as usual
My hearing seems definately to be getting worse suddenly . Very dull indeed. I am afraid.
