Tinnitus

@gnana6 I don’t think that they have a cure yet, the research is going on but that’s about it, however there are a lot of people who claim that they have suffered from this for years and they found a cure, I’ve read and listened to many testimonials about a rare plant found in some obscure place that changed their lives, just more people looking to profit from this ailment. I’ve had tinnitus for many, many years and there was a time when the doctor didn’t even know what I was talking about, since I had covid it comes on more frequently, my noises are usually the same and very intense, sometimes similar to brain zaps, they can go on all day and night and last for several weeks. Thankfully I have some time off and I value those weeks.

@mountainmarge I've had probably 8 months. Didn't realize at the time I had covid. The day after the fu shot my husband and me got sick with a sore throat and cough. That was it. It lasted 2 weeks. During that time I lost my taste and smell(which happened in 2021 and lasted up to 3 years) I panicked so started the same routine of smelling and tasting certain spices and essential oils.Came back and did it a couple more days. After that is when this noise in my ears started. Different sounds some more irritating than others. Some loud some not. If you do research, so many say this helps and that helps and this causes it, bUT no cure. If there is no cure , how do the experts say that certain things cause it. It is VERY frustrating.

@calvin1 Don't have TikTok

@frouke So did you try this herb or even checked into it?

@gnana6 scam like a lot of them are. Trying to get money from people.

@gnana6 I’ve listened to their podcast a few times, it was difficult to get through because they just go on and on, finally they get into what they’re selling and be advised it’s not cheap…I’ve never bought anything from them because it’s all bull…

@frouke I agree. There are so many people out there that would do anything for money. Too bad they don't suffer from the tinnitus.

@gnana6 Absolutely, they are just after making a profit from our suffering!

Sometimes when I’m having a very bad time with tinnitus I truly feel like I’m going crazy, when it’s just calming down after hours and hours of trying to cope with it, a noise, any kind of noise will start it up again, I can’t even talk on days like this because my own voice will bring it back. My spouse walks around with caution just to avoid bothering me, I feel so bad for him because he’s trying so hard to help me.

If you have access to Apps to put on your phone look for White Noise. There are several sounds on there that help me depending on the sound and how loud. There’s a fan, also blue noise, pink noise, purple noise and white noise. They seem to help mask the sound. They actually have a cricket sound but that one freaked me out., Heck No!!!
