Hi everyone,

I recently developed tinnitus after taking just three 200-mg doses of Doxycycline, and it's been a little over a month now. I also had a single shot of Ceftriaxone, but I'm guessing that's unrelated. What are my chances of recovery? My tinnitus is pretty mild, but due to existing mental health struggles, it's really affected me. I mostly notice it when I'm in bed or in my room. I've already bought a white noise machine.

I have the same tone in both ears, which sounds like static. It's not too bad, and I can mostly ignore it.

However, in addition to that, I have a high-pitched whistle in my right ear that's really annoying. It gets much louder when I yawn or when I lie on that side of the pillow (and stays that way for several minutes after). If this sound went away, I'd be happy! I can live with the other sound. The whistle is tricky because it comes and goes.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated. I'm currently taking Magnesium, vitamin D, B12, and NAC.
