Kfschall,

Welcome to NeuroTalk.

I'm sorry to say but there is not much that can be done to resolve tinnitus. Many of us have had tinnitus for quite some time. I've had it for almost 20 years. Mine comes and goes depending on a weird variety of factors. It gets worse when I eat or drink something. Sounds can make it worse.

Unless there is an inflammation of some kind that needs to be treated, you probably just need time with less stimulation. Have you had any upper neck therapy ? The upper neck can get injured but not be directly symptomatic. It can cause inflammation in the brain stem with reductions in vertebral blood flow, etc.

Check out the sticky at the top called Vitamins and Supplements. The injured brain needs good nutrition to handle the stresses of healing.

What other symptoms are you having ?

Have you had a Neuro Psychological Assessment ? They can identify you cognitive dysfunctions with an NPA.

btw, I just had a glass of water with my morning supplements so my ears are ringing like a bell. If I ignore it, it does not bother me. If I get stuck listening to the tinnitus, it takes over all sound I hear.

My best to you.
