Just appreciate what you have and enjoy it. Dont worry about tomorrow. Just bask in how you are feeling and stay in the moment. Best Wishes! Judy

It's what I've been saying since I joined this forum. The magnesium is the secret supplement in my arsenal of supplements that I take. It's the one supplement that, without a doubt, lends a NOTICEABLE difference to T. I have written blog posts about it because I feel it has helped out so much. Neilster, what's your diet like? Do you eat a lot of acidic foods? The magnesium dramatic affects your bodys ph level up to the alkaline side. When your body remains in an alkaline state for a period of time, your inflammation will definitely reside.

It worked very well for me for a long time - i have been off for several months now and the noise is back :(

I will try some, and see what happens, what could it hurt???

I have tried magnesium without success--what quantity do you take?

I think the dose is huge.. hold on, let me get it...

217mg of magnesium
533mg of calcium

quite a bit!

Never tried it

Try it, it's pretty much 2 weeks and my tinnitus has never gone to where it was before... it went from high pitched whine throughout my neck and head into just a low constant sort of cricket sound.. witht he odd spike here and there in to a ring, sometimes in both ears.

But a HUGE difference... my diet is absolute shiate so i must have been lacking something, now i am popping vitamins galore.

It amazes me people come here complaining about their T but never actually try simple things for more than a few days. Give heavy magnesium/calcium pills a chance for a week or two dammit. I insist.

Actually just to add.. before all these supplements my tinnitus was constantly loud and i could never hear it fade in/out/louder/quieter one ear/two ears.

Now it's constantly moving so -something- is very different now... 90% of the time (even right now in total silence) all i hear is a distant sort of sizzle....very easy on the ear actually, and it's only in the 'bad' one.. my right.. my left is completely dead of tinnitus 95% of the day with the odd loud ringing for a few minutes here and then in loud places.

Couldn't be placebo, not this long into the experiment... and once i slept at my girls and was off 2 days it came back a bit... may not help everyone but its saving my life right now, i hope i can report back in a few months it's still working, i'd take a pound of mageniusm a day if i had to.

I have not looked into taking the Magnesium. How much do you take daily. I will try anything to see if it helps :)

I take Magnesium, Ginko and Pine Bark. These seem to keep me in check. Don't mean a thing if I drink beer, eat red meet or have a pizza. Everything matters, but then again, sometimes nothing seems to make a difference. I think sometimes we just all put faith in different cures to give us a little hope. But look at your wife, your kids and your friends, and that should give you all you need.

Good luck to everyone.

easy on the calcium as it is constipating then you take a laxative which equals ringing in the ears , grrrrrrr sigh

I still say having more sex will take your mind off your tinnitus.
