Medical Forum / Diseases and Disorders / Tinnitus / July 2004Inner Ear Fluid
I read somewhere that there is a huge number of factors that could affect the secretion of inner ear fluid. Amongst these include:(1)emotion and (2)neck tension. I know a lady around here who all of a sudden lost her hearing after getting made at her servant. So that is number 1. I discover that by doing neck exercise many times a day, the exercises tend to release the 'somatic discomfort' on both sides of my head. This kind of discomfort used to be released by diuretic. I am still using diuretic but on an 'as needed' basis. That is to say, if, after doing the neck exercises, the pressure or the brain ring is still there, I would have to use diuretic.

She lost her after a low level emotional event. But because this event preceded the hearing loss doesn't mean it caused the hearing loss. Remember that the rooster thinks the sun comes up because he crows. HNG Francis, You posted this on the 13th: I started taking gingko biloba about 3 weeks ago. The most noticeable thing is that my 'brain ring' or ring inside the brain has been transformed into 'drum ring' or ring on the ear drum. Thus regardless of whatever 'studies' done on both sides of the fence, it is your bodily reaction that should have the final say. FP So, has your ringing 'migrated' back to your brain and is no longer a 'drum ring'? You might want to re-think the Gingko Biloba and the diuretic. Are you taking a potassium sparing diuretic? If not, were you given a potassium supplement? Depleting yourself of potassium can cause many health problems, here's a small excerpt for you to read: Potassium is one of the most abundant minerals in the human body. A 150-pound person has about 250 grams (nine ounces) of potassium in his or her body. Many cellular enzyme systems depend on potassium, and nerve excitation and muscular contraction are influenced by the mineral. A deficiency in potassium can cause muscular weakness, increased nervous irritability, mental disorientation, and cardiac irregularities. If blood levels of potassium get low enough, ventricular fibrillation (in which the heart vibrates rather than pumps) can occur and cause sudden death. Muscle weakness, deterioration, and periodic paralysis from potassium deficiency are quite common. It scares me to read all the things you are experimenting with in an attempt to *get rid of your tinnitus*. What will it take for you to accept that it isn't going to hurt you, it isn't going to go away, and there is no cure for it? ~Patty~ > I read somewhere that there is a huge number of factors that could > affect the secretion of inner ear fluid.

To improve it as much as possible. I used to suffer from somatic discomfort in my head about 2 months ago but now it is under control with the use of Lasix on an as needed basis. What will it take for you to accept that it > isn't going to hurt you, it isn't going to go away, and there is no cure for > it? There might not be a cure but there are various degrees of improvement achievable. For example, i am enjoying 4 good days each week and the 3 bad days are getting less and less bad.

Four good days vs.Three not so bad days is better than Seven Horrible Days. Everyone has their own personal opinion of Gingko Biloba. I don't and won't take it. If it works for you, that's all that matters. ~Patty~ > > There might not be a cure but there are various degrees of improvement > > achievable.

I don't and won't take it. It is all in the head or a matter of confidence. If the cause of your T is due to poor blood circulation in the head, then it is worth your while to try it. Just get a doctor who has had good experience with gingko for his patients, and you will try it. You might be in the medical profession yourself. But it is still a good idea that you get a doc to doctor you. It might work for you too. But make sure you get a good gingko pill. My doc is adament about using dried leaf as opposed to extract.
