    • About Me

      Love music and old movies. Also traveling in motor home with my husband. Play the piano a bit but mostly for my own entertainment. My problem is severe tinnitus. The roar in my right ear is like the roar of the ocean magnified 100 times. The Hyperacusis in my left ear makes me very sensitive to certain sounds. I have had this for a few years and am still learning to cope.

      My goal is to not let my Tinnitus and Hyperacusis interfere with my life in any way. We continue to take long trips in our motorhome and I love taking videos of all the sightseeing we do. It is a real hobby with me. I have videos and disc of my whole life including my children growing up. At that time it was on 8 millimeter film which I have had transferred to video. I have numbered and listed all of them on our computer and it is wonderful to be able to go back and relive different things.

    • Close Tinnitus

      I have very severe tinnitus and hyperacusis. The roar in my right ear is the roar of the ocean magnified 100 times. My left ear is very sensitive to certain sounds.

      Treatments

      Neurontin Somewhat Helpful
      No side effects. I also am on Xanex, .5 mg. 3xdaily Really works.
      Lipo-Flavanoid Working / Worked
      Just started using it but I learned from a friend of a friend that it actually cured the tinnitus and her tinnitus was severe. It can be purchased over the counter and the cost is $29.95 for 100 tablets. You take one tablet 3 times a day or for severe problems 2 tablets 3 times a day. I alreay have noticed a difference. Wishing you all my very best. FranD
