Professionals only please. As far as I know I have not been exposed to blasts or excessive loud noise on that side. I have tinnitus. My hearing loss is severe in high frequencies (65 Db). I have some neural damage in that ear (25 Db in high freq.). My right ear is fine (20 Db). I am 40, male, and have developed hearing loss and tinnitus gradually. Loud noises bother me. I have trouble with conversations in noisy places. As a child I had measles which may be relevant in some types of hearing loss. After visiting a hearing test, I was directed to a specialist. After reading on the internet, I am for the first time taking my hearing loss seriously. In fact, I am worried. What is the most probable cause of my hearing loss? It’s only in my left ear. What would still be common causes? Noise/environment? Otosclerosis? Acoustic neuroma? Are acoustic neuromas in fact extremely rare? I chose to deliberately wait until after Christmas. 6 more days… Is it still most likely noise?

I’m looking for people that bought the book Tinnitus Miracle by Thomas Coleman that can tell me more about it. I really want to buy the book but wonder if the techniques inside Tinnitus Miracle work or not. If anyone here have experience with Thomas Coleman’s Tinnitus Miracle Book please let me know if the methods worked for you or not.

I have noticed the tinnitus is louder sometimes.

I’m 39 years old. I have had tinnitus from loud music for over a decade, but not very bad. But today I wake up deaf in one ear. Why, and what can I do about it?

I’ve had tinnitus since I can remember, though I’ve never had it diagnosed. I used to get a rushing sound when I was younger, but now I know that was my pulse…

Now I don’t get the rushing sounds, it’s just odd ringing – noticeable when everything is quiet. But since a few years back I’ve had heart palpitations, not sure why.

Any suggestions if these are related or what it could be?

By the way I am 20 years old.

that is, when someone already suffers from tinnitus!
and why would that be?

I usually have a high pitched, low volume ringing in my ears. It’s normally pretty quite but sometimes gets pretty loud. The thing that really bugs me is that I will randomly get really loud bursts of high ringing in one ear. Sometimes it’s so loud it makes my eyes water. Do I have tinnitus? Please also remember I’m 13 so…

Mine sounds like crickets.

Okay, so I have this throbbing noise in my ear. My left ear…and I go to my ENT doctor every 2 weeks. He never said anything about what causes the sound, but then again I never asked. I have a very small amount of tinnitus. What do you think it could be, and would my doctor have said something by now if it was something serious?

I recently got it and i still want to be able to have fun…..is it ok if i stay away from the speakers?
