Silence is an enemy, but quiet can be nice. Fill your life with background sound - radio, tv, music, open windows. When I’ve had an especially stressful sound day there are actually things that bring relief - the ocean, a strong wind through the trees or the music of Joel Styzens (a musician who suffers from tinnitus).

Best wishes finding relief.

I have no idea if this will work for others but,,,

Among my ailments is low blood oxygen.
When the ringing gets intense I try to hyperventilate.
Most of my ailments have some connection to oxygen so it is possible that it is in reality just a placebo.
I don’t give a flying fornication, it works for me and I can afford it.

Please note, I have spent many years in equipment rooms filled with whirling fans.

YMMV

It's strange and coincidental that I was reading about Tinnitus 911 this morning before coming across this FR article. While reading the Tinnitus 911 sales pitch from their scam site, I tried to copy the string, 'Tinnitus 911' so I could past it to my browser's search engine to do research on the product's ingredients. Not surprisingly, the Tinnitus 911 site designers coded their website to prevent copying text from the site. Talk about extraordinary measures to prevent independent research.

In any case, I didn't bother researching ingredients because I found 8 reviews that all gave the product 1 star with comments generally and unanimously saying the product doesn't work and good luck trying to get a refund.

What's up with all these scam product/service sellers using the same type of format and content structure. There must be a template somewhere that these scammers titled, 'Template for selling scam products, books and services."

“A symptom of what?”
I should have said those are not my words. They are the words of my previous ENT.

It’s a “symptom”?

A symptom of what?

...

Hearing loss. The brain is creating its own sound to make up for lost frequencies.

Hmmm....that doesn't really fit my situation, when my Tinnitus began; nor a good friend of mine's.

But thanks for the reply.

If you have not at least tried a high quality, well sourced fish oil, try it. I’ve heard it cure someone. Good examples of brands are Nordic Naturals and Carlson’s.

Aspirin is known to cause tinnitus too.

Life Extension has a detailed explanation of tinnitus and suggested therapies and nutritional protocols (Tinnitus). My experience with nutritional and herbal remedies is that they are like having a bag of keys, one of which will open a lock. You just have to keep trying, hoping that the bag holds a key that will work.

I’m one of the minority that has perfect hearing and tinnitus. Some doctors suggest damage to the hair cells in the ear make those hair cells hyperactive. My research suggests nobody really knows why chronic tinnitus is what it is. Though, as mentioned previously, there are some things (medicine, medical conditions...) that cause tinnitus until the issue is resolved.

My doctor told me to buy a Chrysler, marry a 300 pound woman and move to a trailer court in Kentucky.
I asked him if that really would help the tinnitus; he said no, but that it would put it in perspective.

See #28. It’s not from your ears. It comes from your brain. You’re confusing ordinary hearing loss with tinnitus.

I wish they would figure it out and come up with a cure.
