Constant tinnitus: Are there any solutions?

Yes only very minor tinnitus prior to vaccine and now very loud pulsating tinnitus which changes in volume through the day. I am grateful when it subsides to low hissing. Started approximately 9 days after the vaccine. On second course of steroids and just found out today adding Sudafed really reduces the noise. Doing research, I think for me it’s a Eustachian tube issue as my ears and lower neck hurt at times. When my ears pop gets better. Going on 5 weeks of this. Have appt Mayo Arizona late May 2021. Had hearing test at local ENT office no hearing loss so far. Any recommendations until I can be seen? I am also allergy sufferer so having that checked at Mayo as well. Found a Facebook group with over 1400 people with same experience.

I have two different tones that come mainly at night. One sounds like a marching band. The other sounds like a men’s chorus of undefinable songs sung in very low voices. I’m going deaf so that’s why I started hearing these noises. Any insights from anyone.

https://hearinghealthfoundation.org/ The current issue of the magazine published by The Hearing Health Foundation, a research organization, focuses on tinnitus and hyperacusis. It's encouraging to know that more research is being done on these two health issues.

Have u seen qualified audiologist? They do have hearing aids w tinnitus relief. I think Bose has some ear phones w similar. It’s a brain thing not ear thing. I’ve had it for 35 years. Plus hearing loss each year. It’s no fun. Biofeedback training can help also.

I probably have a mild case of tinnitus - but, I just drink distilled water, it goes away. Also, I know if I eat salty food I'll get tinnitus.

Fully vaccinated with Moderna…no change

I sympathize with you and know what you are talking about. have the exact same sounds that you have.The men’s chorus, of un identified songs sung by low voices. I also have music that is like a musical phrase of several notes in constant repetition, birdsong, an engine in operation, plane type noise. I have also lost some hearing and can’t understand words spoken on the radio or the tv without my hearing aids connected to a device which is connected to the tv. In short a cornucopia of sound.

Drinking water is healthy. So is staying hydrated. Not sure either have a direct relation to reducing tinnitus. However, salt, or sodium as it is commonly known as on food package labels, is a good idea. Salt is related to a higher blood pressure level which can affect the blood flow to your ears and may aggravate tinnitus.

Yes, 1 month after I received my 2nd shot tinnitus became very loud constant ringing. It use to be very soft, but know very loud. I received Moderna vaccine.

Has anyone had success taking a taurine supplement for there tinnitus? I was taking soy isoflavones and I had great success taking the supplement. But unfortunately I had ER positive breast cancer 12 years ago and I was told by my oncologist that I should stay away from estrogen type supplements. But it helped quite my tinnitus so well that some days I would have no ringing for part of the day. I have stopped taking the soy isoflavones supplement for 7 days and the ringing is back real loud. I have been taking 3000 mg of taurine for a few days and it doesn't seem to help. I will give it time, but would like to know how long it may take before some relief might start. I am heartbroken that I can not take the soy isoflavones because as I understand, it might bring my cancer back. If someone knows different please refer me to the information/study that says I my take the soy isoflavones. To all the other tinnitus sufferers I used the soy isoflavones 750 mg 3 times a day. Them cut back to 2 times a day. I got really good relief from the tinnitus. Then I was maintaining very low ringing sound with 60 mg twice a day.
