Sudden hearing loss followed by unbearable tinnitus

@trishanna, that's interesting that sound systems are different for you.

Have you tried any sound devices? White noise machines? or you may want to try a white noise machine with pillow speakers to help you sleep. Fans, humidifiers, dehumidifiers and air conditioners in the bedroom also may help cover the internal noise at night. Or Masking devices. Worn in the ear and similar to hearing aids, these devices produce a continuous, low-level white noise that suppresses tinnitus symptoms.

Mayo Clinic also mentions "Tinnitus retraining. A wearable device delivers individually programmed tonal music to mask the specific frequencies of the tinnitus you experience. Over time, this technique may accustom you to the tinnitus, thereby helping you not to focus on it. Counseling is often a component of tinnitus retraining"

@jamienolson, I appreciate your response. No, have never tried any of the devices. Fortunately, my tinnitus doesn't interfere with sleep - I'm aware of it but the Meniere's systems paved the way many years ago for tinnitus. My hearing problems all have to do with just that - hearing (and understanding).

Tinnitus I have experienced the same issue in both ears. It has woken me up at night and could got back to sleep. One day I was praying about this cause I felt I couldn't take it anymore. I started looking on line to see if their was anything that could help me!
I found s product called quite mind, some people say it's a fraud , but I was desperate and tried it . It's been 1 and 1/2 months and my noise level is half as loud as it was ... i can focus on hearing again.
To me it was a God sent product!
It is a vitamin and herb produce. But always check with your Dr. before using .
