Medical Forum / Diseases and Disorders / Tinnitus / December 2005Hello everybody a friend who wants to share his experience
I have since june of 2004 tinnitus, i remember one night I awaked in the middle of the night with a pulsating pain on my right ear with some kind of whistle sound and after it I started to note sounds while I was on silent places, I am pianist and since one year I can´t enjoy what i love to do in my life cause every time I sit to play at the piano y end with a terrible sound like if i where cooking with a pressure cooker. Also when I´m watching TV i just can´t unfocus from the typical background white noise comming from the speakers cause I can hear it just inside of my ears I hate to hear from doctors the idea of living forever with tinnitus and I think i finally found a place to share my experience and leave some knowlege and recieve it too in the way to find a solution for some particular case like my own. I just remember that on my desperate efforts to relief the noises I was trying a lot of vitamins and on december of last year I noticed one night that my sound was almost dissapeared and during all this year I had the problem again, i just want to imagine that maybe some of the vitamins i was trying helped to relief my tinnitus, I was trying Vitamin E and Damiana capsules. do try a visit to www.tinnitus.org thanks in advance it´s a great site to understand the complex mecanism involved on tinitus and to know the perfect machinery it haves and to learn to treat it as your best loved ones ;) You wrote:" I hate to hear from doctors the idea of living forever with tinnitus.." Where do you live? US of A? I am glad that you get some relief by not committing the sin of ethnocentricism. Hey this is my other username, ok well I´m from Mexico City beside where I live I think it´s a problem in common worldwide when a medic just don´t know how to treat a condition the best wat to protect themselves is to say "it´s not curable" or evade the situation instead of accepting they just aren´t complete knowers of their profession :( And yes, I hate ethnocentricism I think we are humans not british or germans nor africans or latins ;) > You wrote:" I hate to hear from doctors the idea of living forever with > tinnitus.." > > Where do you live?

But it has passed. If you awake in the middle of the night with ear pain then there is muscle tension in the neck and shoulder. This may have been building up for years. Are you aware of your posture when you play? It is most important to undo the tension that builds up when playing. Do you do stretching exercises after a bout of playing? There is a lot of information on this site that you might find helpful. http://eebee.net/earpain.shtml You can always email me at elly at eebee.net Tinnitus Resources http://eebee.net/ > I have since june of 2004 tinnitus, i remember one night I awaked in > the middle of the night with a pulsating pain on my right ear with some [quoted text clipped - 22 lines] > vitamins i was trying helped to relief my tinnitus, I was trying > Vitamin E and Damiana capsules. You see there´s just a question about the postures and the stretching exercises: I didn´t knew that my piano teacher had a low frequency tinnitus untill I talked to him about my problem I don´t know if it´s just a coincidence, I don´t think the postures at all could be having to do at all with the problem but could be some of the habits of stretching exercises to do something here?, to relax my shoulders i just rise them and then i let them fall. I actually had a fall on a yatch about five years ago and I had some problems in my neck for a long time and I never gon to a doctor to check my self and actually y always had a problem in my jaws that joining all this situations could be leading to my tinnitus problem and i might find a solution, thanks to tell me that about Tension! it´s a very important topic here cause I already made some blood tests and Seems that all is in normal levels suspecting a cholesterol or diabetes problem or something worst. talking about music I can almost feel what you feel when you say you can´t tolerate playing modern music, there´s just a moment I wich you just feel inside your ears a pressure you can´t describe cause it´s not air! and that´s the main situation I want to find sooner a solution because im´t taking the music as my profession right now :( and i don´t want to have a worsen tinnitus cause that could mean "goodbye" to music for an undeterminated time. If you had a fall and further neck problems then your problem is most likely right there. And your jaw problems are most likely related to that as well. Can you visit a trusted chiropractor to see if you need anything done to your neck? Can you get a massage from a trusted therapist to ease and confirm whether there is tension or not. Can you find a trusted therapist to check on your posture etc?

Actually my doctor told me that I´m having certain posture problems due to my profession, as a music you tend to create certain habits on your postures that if you don´t care they can injure you. I tried a chiropractor and he told me that I might be having back problems cause he found some problems and also my neck but I really scared cause he offered me some homeopatics and acupunture so I wanted to be sure first at all of my security but all indicates that´s the way i need to take so i need to have the courage of loose my fears and find the solution ;) Those recommendations are not dangerous. Might be worth a try. But they are not going to solve your posture and back problems long term. So take courage. Ask yourself "Will this be dangerous?" Elly'sTinnitus Resources http://eebee.net/ |
