    I have bothersome Tinnitus and I relate to you. I can't sadly just focus on getting better because I have to work and provide for my family. For that reason, I can't run a lot of studies to check for my tinnitus, and if I did, doctors, as you said, will find nothing. I went through months of doing studies and doctors telling me: "Everything looks fine" , bleeding money like crazy, to the point that now I'm moving from my current home to a smaller home because I can't afford that anymore. There are things I can't do anymore because I bled so much money that I can't afford them anymore. I wholeheartedly relate with you and wonder as well but still, I try to maintain hope... At least I have my wife and my daughter, and they are the ones that drive me...

    I can't thank you enough for sharing your experience. I hope you are able to get the professional therapies, treatments, advice, and not be dismissed as you have been. In the last months I have developed hyperacusis as a rare side effect of a medication I began taking. Of course I have quit taking it [after 1 1/2 months], but still some of the side effects continue. I cried when you asked why no doctor mentioned the DMX test for you. Every doctor I saw dismissed the possibility of it being the medication, including the doctor who prescribed it!]. I have an added symptom of a numb face. Here's wishing us luck. We're both brave.

    Hi. Just wanna tell you something as a person who has been living with this issue for almost 14 years. Don't focus on getting better. Focus on the ways you can live your life with this condition. The worst thing i did was avoiding to enjoy life cause i had this issue. I thought only after i get better i can do the things i like , and this specific day never came. So i lost 10 years of my life because i was so depressed i couldn't even move to do something. When i turned 30 i changed my life and i started studying day and night to get to architecture school (the field i always loved to study)again and start a new life. Right now I'm finishing my masters in architecture and I'm looking forward for a PHD position. Just wanted to say that, dont waste time. If there is a cure some day ,you will be informed and you will use it, but if there is not, then you won't waste your time thinking and searching day and night for that. Be smart,don't act like me. Remeber, a successful person with a health issue is sooooo much better than an unsuccessful person with the same issue. Don't think about the things you can't do ,think about the things you can still be doing. You've got so much blessing you've completely forgot about.Furthermore, hyperacusis gets worse in 2 cases: 1. When you isolate yourself 2. When you have depression and anxiety. So engage in social activities( not just hanging out with friends. It has to be meaningful like doing a job or service) and also consult with your doctor and use Anti Depressants if you need that. Quit alcohol and smoking. Live a healthy life ,stay out the comfort zone and get through the problems. That's it. Best wishes

    My hyperacusis was successfully treated a few years ago by The Hearing Doctor in Los Angeles. His name is Sol Marghzar and he's an audiologist. It cost me close to $3,000, but he gave me a full consultation and special earpieces that play pink noise that sounds like soft static. They would have to be in my ears and turned on during the day while other sounds were going on. They don't work if you sleep with them. The pink noise helps the dorsal cochlear nucleus, a cluster of nerves in your ears, to stop over-reacting and calm down. I've taken good care of the earpieces and every year or two I have to wear them again for a few days. Things like hard objects clanking together can trigger the condition again. I remember when the sound of running water even hurt my ears.

    Hey. I got similar story. I got my shoulder ang neck ligaments stretched out in a sports injury. Physio made it worse and my tinnitus, fullness in ear and hyperacusis and vertigo began. Got prolotherapy done to my shoulders and got 60% relief. Also I focus on posture otherwise there is spike in my tinnitus. I don't lift even a gram weight with injured hand.
    ps - it took me 5 years to get better after visiting 25 doctors in different specialisations most of whom just counselled me that nothing is wrong and all is in your head. Read a bit about vagus nerve and eustachian tube dysfunction and you will get useful info. Hope this helps you

    I have severe, debilitating pain hyperacusis and will be evaluated for Superior Canal Dehiscense Syndrome with a specialized CT soon. Have they looked into that as being part of what causes your sounds issues? I hate to hope this is what I'm diagnosed with but grasping at straws is where I'm stuck now.

    I was diagnosed with Hyperacusis in 2009 from a minor ear infection, it does not take much to get this condition. You explained what I go through everyday as well, as life is like a twilight zone with Hyperacusis. I too went to many ENT's specialist and universities, all I was offered was a hearing aid and got shoulder shruggs. There is not much empathy in the world for sufferers like us, people have a hard time putting us in their shoes, they cannot even imagine. I think there is hope though, I did find a doctor that specializes in Hyperacusis, they have a surgery now, they go in with skin graph and put in on the oval window, sort of restoring a sound buffer, as it is a membrane to the hearing. You have to get a CT scan of the temporal bone, unfortunately the y would not tell me the price of the procedure, the place is out of Florida. I can give you details, im not an affiliate or anything but just wanted to say a procedure does exist. Look into it. www.earsinus.com/inventions-procedures
