Unbearable Increase in Tinnitus After Taking One Co-Codamol Tablet

[meeb]

Three weeks ago I took just one co-codamol tablet and I woke with really loud hissing and a major increase in my baseline tinnitus noise including a louder ring at a slightly lower frequency than the usual higher frequency, it's still there now. Sometimes it fades but not very often.

I hate my life.

@meeb ....Sorry to learn of the increase in your T and the suffering it's causing you. However, being that you've had T since 2002, you probably already know that spikes can last for weeks, even months. I'm speaking from many years of personal experience. I had a really severe one once that lasted four months.

I'm sure you also know that anxiety and fear can exacerbate a spike. So, perhaps you can reduce those by reassuring yourself that it's more than likely just temporary. I think the fact that it sometimes fades is an encouraging sign. I know all to well the feeling you expressrd in your statement, "I hate my life."

Take heart, in time, it will more than likely subside back to your previous baseline level.

I hope it does, each days getting more difficult, thank you for your response I found it helped.
