Usually, you can buy things cheaper yourself. But reference studies.
I’d recommend my Audiologist wife....but she retired today.
Bttt
Most of the Tinnitus ‘cures’ are scams.................
Ring!...................
99.99% of OTC cures are scams.
My doctor told me to ignore the internet on this subject - there is no current cure - they are all just scams.
There is no cure for tinnitus - only coping ideas.
Anyone reading this without tinnitus - protect your ears, protect your children’s ears.
Tinnitus is one of the symptoms of CFIDS that I could do without. It comes and goes, and is a nuisance, but I deal with it because I don’t know how to “cure” it. To my knowledge, there is no “cure,” just remedies to ease it (maybe) that cost a fortune.
So I do empathize with you, and hope you’re able to find some peace. It sounds as if you could use it.
‘Face
No cures? Really? Anything? Anyone? I’ve forgotten what silence sounds like.
That's the best cure for now - forget the notion of silence.
Everybody's manifestation of tinnitus is different, of course. What I have done is convince myself that the sound I hear is the exact same as the crickets and night sounds in the woods at night I remember well as a kid.
So, when I focus on my tinnitus, I merely feel nostalgia for great times camping in the woods.
Crap, typo err on TheLibertyDaily.
“Ive forgotten what silence sounds like.”
Same here. I developed Tinnitus in my late 60’s and it is slowly getting worse. Can’t hear above 8K Hz. There is no cure and no insurance coverage for costly masking devices, simply because Tinnitus is a SYMPTON not an illness.
:-(
21+ years... no silence.
A symptom of what?
I hear yuh....
I play ocean music at night to cover mine...
I’ve had some success using Biotin (a B vitamin) the theory is it can help with hair growth, and part of the ear depends on tiny hairs. But you have to believe it will help (same with any supplement). My ringing is sporadic, not permanent, and very slight when I do have it. Long-time live music fan - nowadays I alway have ear protection when attending rock concerts!
Have you traveled to any Communist country recently? IE: Cuba, etc.
Might they have something to do with the increase if this milady?
Suggestions from talk radio host have been to take a magnesium supplement. DH has tried aa recommended ‘exercise’ which helps to some small degree. He suffers from time to time. For some unknown reason, at the moment he’s not complaining about it. Myself, no bell ringing, but do have a problem at times with hearing the pings of a submersed submarine.
I suffered from tinnitus for years. I found out that many people who use Xanax and z-drugs like Ambien often have ear ringing. I used Ambien for years and after stopping them it took about 6 months and I rarely have it now.
