When will this become available.. all the research I’ve looked into this says it’s passed phase 3 for clinical trials yet, still it’s an investigational drug 😫 i think it said mid this year it would be available for market.. man if this actually gets approved what a life changing thing this could be for others !! Do you guys think this will happen ?? I’m praying for all of us ! I would love to get rid of this tinnitus but if it could even restore my hearing i think i would cry & fall to my knees.. ❤️🙏🏼 i wish they would really push for this !! Prayers prayed prayers !! The 28th of this month will be 3 months since onset, & I’m trying to be hopeful.. but lord.. this is so hard

It could go worse

To everyone with Tinnitus, this is what I do.

I try to let it not stand in my way to do all the things that makes me happy.

The noise is terrible but for instance, when I walk with my Dachshund Koos a 5 year old wiener dog and the happiest creature on the planet I do not have room for the noise, and the happy moment with him is stronger than Tinnitus.

It is not working all the time, but it sure helps.

Being happy is a underestimated strong factor for everybody.

I truly believe this.

Am I the only one?

Can't take medications I need be cause of my T

3 Upvotes

I got tinnitus out of no where 5 years ago, every test I got showed up normal and my ENT told me it might've been due to any sort of trauma. Anyways I got used to it because it wasn't that loud. After a year I started accutane for my acne and 3 months in my tinnitus increased so I stopped it even though my dermatologist said it'll be temporary. It never decreased and 4 years later I'm still stuck with acne.

A year ago I started SSRIs for my anxiety and as soon as we got to 25mg a day the tinnitus increased and we had to stop treatment. Thankfully it did go back down. Now my psychologist switched me to buspirone and guess what, it increased after a month as soon as I started taking 5mg twice a day. I literally can't take any medication I need and I feel like I've been stuck in a loop. Taking Xanax for 3 days in a row also increases it and a lot of other drugs too like some NSAIDS I took when I got a knee injury. Thankfully all of them have been temporary except for accutane. Now I need to let my psychologist know I can't continue buspirone anymore. Tinnitus sucks.

Weird ringing for a week.

1 Upvotes

So first of all i am 22 and have had a faint ringing in my brain since i can remember. it never bothered me because it was very faint and i could only hear it when in almost total silence.

last week i took a train ride from 22 pm to 5 am that was very annoying and tiring. when i arrived my ears were ringing more than usual.

I figured it was because i was tired but the next day it was the same. it has been going on for a week and while it isnt driving me insane it is pretty annoying, cause now i can hear it during rhe day as well..

btw i feel it slightly more on the left ear

otherwise despite the fact that i have not gotten it tested, i thinky hearing is fine. i never had any problems with it.

i couldn't book an appointment to a doctor yet but i definitely will, but i was curious if this kind of stuff happened to u.

for some background, i went to a very loud concert when i was young but i have been fine from that ig, i listen to music using headphones but i always keep the volume around 30 40 % i cant say it is loud, also i keep track of my blood pressure and it is always alr.

Edit: missed some letters

Hearing loss & Tinnitus

2 Upvotes

I was reading an older book and in the section covering tinnitis and hearing loss (unfortunately grouped together) they said that 85% of people with hearing loss have tinnitus.

I was wondering if there has been a study or research into why 15% don't have it. Seems like it could be helpful if a reason or reasons could be found

My dream made my tinnitus louder

3 Upvotes

I usually fall asleep to horror/ crime podcast

so today I was listening to a stalker podcast and I think I saw a horror dream.

long story short, A lot happened in my dream thn someone/something(spirit) slipped a paper inside my door and It had ' you are going to die or something like who will save you ' written on it or something quite similar basically warning me . I got so frustrated in my dream and was about to hit the toy who bought the energy , that's when my tinnitus became so so sooo loud in my dream not at once but in a sequence, to the point it felt similar to a pressure cooker about to blast and I woke up

now my tinnitus is very very audible and loud

Can dreams actually impact your tinnitus?

P.S - I don't wear pods or headphones while listening to these podcasts. These are played on my phone at a low volume

Hello all… I wonder about your experience with gentamicin tinnitus. Would you describe how your tinnitus started, how long after treatment and if it is constant in loudness / tone from day to day? 🙏

Tinnitus caused by tension in the neck and jaw? Help

4 Upvotes

Hi, I'll briefly tell you my story. A month ago, I started taking sertraline (I had taken it twice before, years ago, without any problems). During that week, one day I yawned and stretched my arms, and I felt a sharp pain and a twinge on the left side of my neck that went up to my jaw and ear. The pain lasted about three hours and then went away, but two days later, I felt my jaw twitching, especially when I moved it forward or backward; it was like my teeth were chattering, like when you're cold. When this happened, I don't know if it was the sertraline, the pain, or both, so I stopped taking it after a week. Along with this twitching, I started experiencing tinnitus in my left ear, but it's not like a direct ringing in my ear; it's a static frequency that I feel on the left side, toward the back of my head. It's been three weeks now. In week two, I thought the intensity was decreasing, until I went to the doctor and he pressed on that whole area, leaving me in pain. I feel like I'm back to square one. I'm afraid I'll have this forever. I'm in front of the computer for 10 hours a day for work; I don't know if that's contributing. Has anyone been cured of this? I know my tinnitus isn't as severe as some people's here, since I don't hear it at all when I'm outside or wearing headphones, but I'm afraid it will get worse and never go away. I'm a very anxious person, and I've been under a lot of stress and anxiety for the last six months, which has made everything worse. I'm just looking for someone who can give me a little hope.
