"If it helps, it will be cured the day after you die? Probably not! It will follow me into the afterlife knowing me! " lol, there is actually a cure in labs and its gearing up to go into human trials. It will likely be expensive but trials on animals have returned their hearing to the levels of childrens hearing, which they assume will cure tinitus but wont know till a human can confirm it. I'd say probably 10 years or so away. | |||

"How can they know what the animals are hearing? " Maybe ask them if they want their tummy to be rubbed, and gauge the response? Probably won't work on fishies. Or alligators. | |||

I have it too and I struggle, especially at night. Hugs and sympathy to all that have to cope with it. | |||

"24/7 all day every day, high pitched loud continuous noise How do you cope? " One chap I worked with actually had sine wave generators sitting on his ears (they looked more like hearing aids) which emitted a sine wave on the same frequency as the tinnitus but the opposite phase phase, the idea being that it cancelled the tinnitus out in a manner simar to noise-cancelling earphones.

" I fully sympathise with you. I have exactly the same and recently it seems to have got worse. It started during my time in the R.A.F. and has never gone away. Caused by working in noisy environments without ear defenders, they weren't standard issue in the time that I served. | |||

" Have no idea if this works but check out Dr Mandell on YouTube. He has a ton of remedies for ailments that you can perform on yourself. He has one on Tinitus the link is below. https://youtu.be/yAytWz--mWU | |||

Theres one possible device in testing for specific types of tinnitus (does yours change if you stick your tongue out/clench your jaw) involving electrical shocks and sounds to reduce the efrects but theres no miracle treatment like youre making out. | |||

"Hi all On youtube there is a white noise video that cancels out the ringing when listening to it for temporary releif. Also for sleep I put on a rain noise video now as the tinnitus temporarily fades away. Worth a search and see which one works for you and hope it helps." I tried the rain on the tent noise but preferred the fan. | |||

"My left ear is fucked. I get fizzing, popping and the sounds like a fridge motor running.Stress makes it worse. You can actually train yourself not to listen to it (same way you stop hearing a ticking clock), have a look at the British Tinitus Assoc site.Lots of useful info on there." I can hear a fucking clock now! | |||

And nobody appreciates what a bugger it can be at times and how it can grind your gears ! | |||

"Firstly sorry to hear (genuinely no pun intended) about your suffering! I have it permanently as a result of “slow heavy metal music playing” for years! I also have hearing loss! I do wonder if hearing loss is the reason I can tune out the constant ringing and cope with it? Anyone else who’s hard of hearing with tinnitus find this?? " There are many reasons why people get tinnitus,loud music is probably the most popular, mine was stress, I was having a bad anxiety attack that lasted months all due to wotk rated stress,Iv also wondered if deaf people can get tinnitus? Mine seems to be in my head not my ears | |||

Mine seems to be in my head not my ears" Stress makes mine worse also. But as for the sound, ringing, it seems to be in the centre of the head, like where the pips would be in an orange although a symptom of ear damage. I thought it was probably the same with everyone except the tone ? | |||
