change in tinnitus any advice?

[lhc8893]

hi, wonder if anyone can give some advice I had tinnitus that started after having my baby 2 years ago mainly in the right ear it was like crickets a high ringing I was referred to ENT for an MRI for internal auditory Metus and all came back clear so they discharged me so I learned to live with the ringing and seemed to ignore it. However recently the ringing has stopped and it seems to be an intermittent beeping/(the sound that you get if you were to whistle into a beer bottle but in the tune of intermittent beeps( not in tune with my pulse) although I have had this at times. Does anyone know why or what this could be as it’s making me super anxious sometimes my ears also go deaf for a couple of seconds randomly. I also feel that when the tv is a bit loud I hear this tinnitus extra loud within tune of the TV like my ears are sensitive to the sound. Sorry for the long post just hope someone can offer advice as it’s causing me a lot of anxiety

a very similar post to yours came up a few days ago. Scroll down on this site till you see a post from Ravks, and the responses.

Tinnitus can attack you when you least expect it, and I regard it as an evil imp which sits near my shoulder just out of view, and tries to torture me. But I don’t really notice it (unlike now when I’m writing about it) as I’m habituated.

And that’s the aim -to get to a point when it isn’t a nuisance just part of life’s rich pattern.

Since you had a baby, your tinnitus could be related to a hormone imbalance which you can be tested for or lack of sleep which all of us know occurs with having a baby. Congratulations on the birth of your child!

yes that is exactly what I thought but the doctors seemed to dismiss me. Thank you so much x

😒🙄 it's more likely related to the change( ok let's just call it what it is) stress of a newborn and lack of sleep...it may improve once you get more sleep.

Hi, I cannot offer any advice apart from the fact that Tinnitus behaves in strange ways, It can change from day to day. Obviously the answer is to try and ignore it but this is easier said than done. My symptoms are very similar to yours( but not having the baby). Especially the feeling of whistling into a bottle and going g deaf briefly. All the best for the future and maybe one day we shall all be free of this.

So hard isn’t it. Some days I find it easy to ignore and some days it really gets me down. Thank you for replying to me and I hope we can get rid of this very soon. Take care x
