Hello! I wondered if anybody had any experience with tinnitus and b12 deficiency please? I have hashimotos/ underactive thyroid that is now being successfully treated with NDT medication. I have also recently been diagnosed with b12 deficiency and have started b12 injections every other day for 3 weeks, then to drop to weekly. This diagnosis was made on symptoms as my b12 was within range on the labs. The symptoms were muscle twitching (eyes, hands, feet, legs), tingling tongue and lips, and also tinnitus. The muscle twitching has stopped within a few days of the b12 injections, however the tinnitus has remained. I'm hoping it's just a matter of patience and it may reduce in severity given time? Any experience with this would be greatly appreciated as it's probably the most annoying symptom out of them all, but als seems the most stubborn to leave

Massaging my skull .
Pressure in front of my ears helps.

Probably not what you want to hear, but my tinnitus started after I began self injecting (4.5 months) ago and comes and goes but is more here than not here. Much worse when it's quiet! This past week or has altered from a high pitched squeal to a whooshing sound in one ear at night, not sure if that means it's on its way out or not. Sorry if that's not what you were hoping for, but as you say, it seems to be the most stubborn symptom for sure!!
