Medical Forum / Diseases and Disorders / Tinnitus / December 2003STOP TALKING ABOUT IT AND TRY THE EARPLUG
you have to give up hearing but the T becomes MUCH less bothersome. I suggest the foam plugs you roll into a tube before inserting. I am leaving again for awhile now. Good luck to all of you. > you have to give up hearing but the T becomes MUCH less bothersome. I > suggest the foam plugs you roll into a tube before inserting. I am > leaving again for awhile now. Good luck to all of you. Where could I buy an ear plug online? THX FP > > you have to give up hearing but the T becomes MUCH less bothersome.

This works best if the T is only in one ear. The good ear hears everything and the t ear sort of shuts down. At least in my experience.

But I wonder what will happen if the ringing is in the middle of the brain, as that is the way it seems to me. It started in the left ear though. I will check it out.

I've never ordered from that company but it's url is on the side of the plastic bottle that the plugs come in. I got them at Wallgreens. Let's just forget this whole post. Bob's right. For all I know, earplugs could make your T worse. Forget what I said. Don't try the earplugs. Could the kind folks at Google please remove my post from their database? Live with your T And like it and thank God you're alive. Goodby again, people of alt.support.tinnitus. Goodby and good day, J.G.

Goodby and good day, J.G. Bob...... go to your room. Jack, myself and several others here wear earplugs to protect our hearing during exposure to loud noise. I lost my higher ranges due to loud noise exposure and when that happened I became aware of my tinnitus. The only time earplugs themselves have caused damage to me was one time I was experiencing loud noise exposure.... actually it was my wife expressing her displeasure to me over something I had done.. ... and I popped my earplugs into the ears. My wife then took a whole bag of them and placed them into another canal of my anatomy causing .. er.... damage. Bruce > From: Jack Gaskella <gaskella@mossberg.com> > Newsgroups: alt.support.tinnitus [quoted text clipped - 30 lines] > > Bruce Bruce, I screwed up. Of course ear plugs are valuable. I too use them to prevent further damage to my hearing. In fact, when I posted the above I wasn't even thinking of ear plugs in any sense but as a non-cure. We both know they aren't a cure but rather a preventive measure. I see where my carelessness offended Jack and hope he will accept my apology. Thanks for clearing this up, Bruce. Sorry, Jack. BillyBob > > From: Jack Gaskella <gaskella@mossberg.com> > > Newsgroups: alt.support.tinnitus [quoted text clipped - 43 lines] > > BillyBob I'm not offended. I believe that the use of the earplug and it's restriction of pressure waves to the inner ear reduces the symptoms of my meniere's disease. I have not been dizzy since I started doing this and i used to get extreme vertigo for 12-18 hours. I didn't make myself clear in the first place. The plug does not cure my T but helps me ignore it. Regards, J.G. >The bottom line is this: You aren't going to buy anything that cures >tinnitus because there is no cure. Accept your situation and learn to live >with it. ...................... Basically the cure comes with the acceptance. When you no longer have any negative physical, or emotional response to the noise you have achieved somewhat of a cure. In some people the intensity and number of "bad ear days" lessens after acceptance. - jean >Thank you. But I wonder what will happen if the ringing is in the >middle of the brain, as that is the way it seems to me. ........................ Hi FP Your perception of the ringing coming from the top of the head or brain is not uncommon. Many of us perceived it to be in both the head and ears at different times. - jean |
