Medical Forum / Diseases and Disorders / Tinnitus / October 2007tinnitus after ingesting poison?
So far some of this is speculation on my part, but here goes: After eating a food which later I've become convinced is tainted with some kind of pesticide, I have the symptoms of tinnitus. It started (or became noticable) 3 days after ingestion. Middle to high pitched ring in both ears, pretty much constantly. It seems most prevalent when I awake after 90 minutes sleep, then its very difficult to go back to sleep. This has happened for 4 days now and I'm really starting to get ticked off. My question is whether the ingestion of such a chemical, one time, can produce this result? I'd like to go to a specialist in the Philadelphia area, so if you have any recommendations, I'd appreciate it. I hate going to doctors, but if there's something that can be done, then I'll try it. Also, I'd like some ammunition when it comes time to sue the bastards responsible. Thanks for your help. > So far some of this is speculation on my part, but here goes: > [quoted text clipped - 17 lines] > > Thanks for your help. The food you took and the tinnitus you are suffering from may or may not bear any relationship. It is very hard to prove it in the court of law. Tinnitus can take place out of the blue and this type of tinnitus is called nerve-typed tinnitus. That said, what you should do is to have your tinnitus treated ASAP. This is more important than anything you can gain or lose from the lawsuit. As someone who once went through what you are going through, I would recommend the following. You can try them one by one but once you find something that works, no matter how slightly it does, you should STICK to it for a long time. (1)Gingko biloba (2)Blood vessel dilating medicine such as Betahistine. (3)If you could find a good acupuncturist rather than a quack, by all means pay a couple of visit. Give up after the second one if nothing ticks. (4)Visit a chiro once a week for a few weeks. If you don't want any of that, go and visit Murray in this group. It is my impression that his clinic is in LA. But go and pay one visit anyway unless you know someone where you are who you are sure knows how to treat tinnitus. Tinnitus is a very troublesome illness. The sooner you have it treated, the better off you are. Once it gets old, it becomes very hard to treat. Try to have it treated during the first 2 weeks after its being detected. If your could not find a doctor who knows how to treat tinnitus, talk to a pharmacist and have him prescribe ginkgo biloba for you in order to keep your tinnitus fresh. You never know, you may be lucky to have your tinnitus cured by ginko biloba. Never mind those controlled studies that tell you this and that about ginko biloba. You are the *only* person who can tell whether it works or does not work for *you*.

"This kind of tinnitus is called nerve-type tinnitus". Says who? Baloney. > That said, what you should do is to have yourtinnitustreated ASAP. > This is more important than anything you can gain or lose from the [quoted text clipped - 11 lines] > ticks. > (4)Visit a chiro once a week for a few weeks. All of the above are worthless. What you should do is get a complete checkup by an ear-nose-and throat doctor (ENT) or a neurotologist (ear specialist). > If you don't want any of that, go and visit Murray in this group.

Does my ENT doctor have to speak the same language as you do in order not to be called Baloney. You are a rather dogmatic individual.

How do you know they are worthless? They are of value to me as a patient. Who is you to tell the world they are worthless? Are you a tinnitus authority?

Did I make the statement one must go to LA to find a good ENT? If someone knows where to get a good ENT experienced in treating tinnitus where he is, he should go to the one nearby. > > Tinnitusis a very troublesome illness.

I went to visit almost 15 doctors and their shared experience is that once a t gets old, it becomes difficult to treat. Do you have any empirical evidence to suggest it is not? YOu don't have. You are just bullshitting. On the other hand, I know several individuals who had their t treated when it was new and they are now cured. What is the matter with you? Is it because my experience does not live up to your perception of reality? If no physical cause is found for the tinnitus, > treatment consists of techniques to reduce anxiety and facilitate > adjustment to it. That no physical cause is found by one doctor does not mean the cause will not be found out by another doctor. YOu are making some sweeping generalizations. > It does not matter if it is new or old. This may be yours or some others' esperience but it does not necessarily mean they are universal experience. Do you think the science of medicine is as precise as that of physics or maths. > Try to have it treated during the first 2 weeks after > [quoted text clipped - 8 lines] > Never mind controlled studies?

I personally have found it to be useful and I would care less what others think. When I recommend GB, I do so out of my experiences. Do you see anything wrong with that? > - - (snip a bunch of tripe) >By whose standard?

That would indeed round up to 15. What was it like seeing 60% of a doctor? Was it like having 60% of a brain? That would make it a familiar experience for you.

Still kinda curious about what you meant by having visited "almost 15" doctors. Hey, maybe you meant that you "almost" visited each of them, but in fact did not visit even one. That makes more sense. Which means that what you state on this newsgroup might in fact be "almost true". Almost.

Are you seriously interested? I went to visit(make appointments) doctors somewhere in the neighborhood of 15. These were ENT doctors, neurologists, general physicians...
