Hi, does anyone have any trouble with salicylates in fruits causing their tinnitus to spike?Think it is found in aspirin which is also a problem.

No, but I avoid Pepto Bysmol because of it (and aspirin). Some people avoid some deoderant (antiperspirent?) because of it. I don't do that and have never noticed a problem. I just avoid aspirin, Pepto, and anything with aspirin in it.
