Tinnitus

Have had Tinnitus for 30 years now and can normally handle it by blanking. However, this last week it has got much louder and I’m wondering do others have any advice on how to cope with it as I am off on holiday for three weeks tomorrow. Could additional tablets cause it?

Mine largely resolved on b12 injections. It took a while (months) but it got so much better I forgot about it until my partner asked how it was.

Do you take aspirin?

No, I take Pradaxa for Afib. Take a B12 supplement but Healthspan so maybe not strong enough

Suggest you try sublingual B12 1000mcg lozenges (eg by Jarrow) Much better absorbed in mouth

B12 is very difficult to absorb in the gut

Also recommended to take a good vitamin B complex as well to keep all other B vitamins optimal. One with folate in, rather than folic acid

Thank you so much for your advice.
