tinnitus cure. found something that works for me. why???

... I cannot wait until tonight to try this... although my tinnitus is any hour of the day or night, thanks for sharing, am interested in reading the comments you get.

I know that anything that stops it, even for a minute, makes us feel less trapped! I hold my nose and blow and sometimes it stops for a half a minute! Psychologically that helps me 🙂

...hi windyshores: I have to do this for eustachian tubes that get blocked and ears stuffy, apparently not to blow too hard... it sort of makes ears or one ear pop until the next time they feel full but doesn't do anything for my tinnitus unfortunately...

Thanks, I'll give that a try!

My hearing loss is moderate, and tinnitus fairly low, sounds like a steady blowing wind.

I just got my hearing aid back from the VA. It had been working fine, but would suddenly stop working about 2 hours after each new battery replacement.

The VA ships a new 6-month supply when requested. In the meantime I decided to buy a few new batteries from Walgreens. But, the same 2-hour results.

I then got several batteries from the local VA clinic here in Rockford, IL. They checked their expiration date, and they were definitely new. But, the same 2-hour results.

Anyway, I just my aid back yesterday. So far, it works just fine, hope that continues.

I was hoping they would explain what the problem had been, and what was required to correct it.

Guess I'll have to talk with somebody in their technical department!

hi gordy, I am just wondering about this and have no solution but did check internet and read this: is it worth trying? 2 hours isnt long for new batteries for sure!
Internet:
" According to Ethan if you want your hearing aid battery to last 2 to 3 days longer, you should let it sit with the plastic tab off for 5 full minutes before inserting it into your hearing aid! This discovery may improve your battery life by 80%. That translates into lots of money saved on batteries each year. "

...hope it helps

I have hearing aids for both ears, but only use that for my right ear.

Hearing loss is greater in my left ear. That aid provides adequate, but slightly distorted volume. which is annoying.

My best hearing is while using the right aid only.

Along with my returned right aid, is a note from the VA requesting that I schedule another hearing test.

Hope they can correct the distortion problem with the left aid, but that's probably wishful thinking.

but is fairly

Thanks Valerie.....

I give that a try, and report the results here.

The only time I don't need hearing ads is when I wear headsets in my traveling machine......

... am not sure I want to click on that https ! is it a picture ?

It's both picture and text, and it's safe to click upon.

Both myself and my older son are "airplane nuts."

About five years ago I turned over ownership of my planes to him to simplify things in the event of my death.

The main photo is the Piper Comanche (N6898P), my traveling machine.

Clicking on a smaller photo brings up the Comanche and a BD-4, an experimental plane I built over the years, which we both test flew about 20 years ago.

The headsets in these planes are designed with adjustable volume, and to also drown out background noise. Very effective for eliminating the need for hearing aids while in flight!
