Medical Forum / Diseases and Disorders / Arthritis / August 2006tinnitus revisited
I know a number of you have it...been reading old posts. I just developed this in 1 ear- same ear has some decreased hearing. Am on Indoicin a potential culprit, but was also wondering about Humira? Anyone get this on Humira? Also what have you tried to make it better?? It's making me bonkers when I try to sleep. I was glad for the crickets whose pitch are about mine and drown it out some nights. Kate > I know a number of you have it...been reading old posts.

Kate why don't you post at alt.support.tinitus? Regards Lee Hi Kate, I am sooo sorry this is taking place because I have been where you are and sometimes still have the problem. It is something to talk to your RD about. Sometimes it takes both of you to find the cause. I am sorry to say that the some of your hearing might go away. I think it is the culprit,,,, Indoicin but what do I know. I had to stop taking it because of swelling ankles.... My last NSAID. Harv >I know a number of you have it...been reading old posts.

Kate I don't know about Indocin. I do know when I was on a salicylate NSAID my tinnitius was so severe I had trouble hearing profs lecturing in class! Also I couldn't study in the library as it made me nuts. I had to go home and turn on the radio or stereo. You might try skipping a dose or two, if you can stand to, and see if it improves any. It kicked up again for me when I was on sulfasalazine. My RD, a *really* great one at that time, said ssz doesn't do that, but it did for me. I was so glad to get off it! But, I also had more trouble with tinitus when my psoriasis was active - I had it in my ear canals and somehow that kicked up the buzzing. So there can be so many causes.

I've had it since before going on Indocin 1977-2000, It never got worse, never went away. ...s Red meast is good for you. Gray-green fuzzy meat is bad for you. Kate, Indocin is a salicylic medication, like aspirin. Definitely can cause or exacerbate tinnitus. Also, Cimetidine (tagamet), a common reflux medication, interacts with salicylates. Made that mistake in law school during finals. The tinnitus was so bad my studying was not very effective. Adelle >I know a number of you have it...been reading old posts.

Kate Kate, I'm sorry that I can't help you with a cause, but I can suggest leaving the radio playing softly at night. I can't seem to get to sleep without the radio because I keep listening to my tinnitus. Mine sounds just like crickets so when the little devils start chirping outside it only makes it worse. I did go to an ear doc a few years ago and found I have a hearing loss in one ear also. Ann Kate, I empathize! However, I've just about gotten so that I don't notice mine much except early in the mornings when I wake up. It is especially loud then. Don't know anything about the meds, whether or not they cause it. I know aspirin can, but I haven't been able to take aspirin for many years and my tinnitus just started since I've been in Montgomery. Gwen >I know a number of you have it...been reading old posts.
