Do any of you have a whole lot of noise as in ringing in your ears? I have taken lipo flavinoid for years but it just costs a lot and not really helps.

I just looked around and I see I am not alone with the NOISE. Does anyone have a solution? I have to keep my tv on medium-low all the time. Day & Night.

Wish we could get a "day off" from all this......

Members connected over the frustrating and constant experience of tinnitus, describing sounds ranging from ringing and buzzing to whooshing and ocean-like noises that disrupt daily life and interfere with hearing. Several members shared coping strategies that have helped them manage the noise, including playing soft background sounds from TV or music around the clock, trying hearing aids designed to retrain the brain to block out ringing, and simply learning to adapt over time. A recurring theme was the link between tinnitus and fibromyalgia or brain injuries, with members finding comfort in knowing they are not alone in this exhausting and often misunderstood symptom.

My husband suffers from it. He recently got a new set of hearing aids that help train his brain to block out the ringing/noise in his ears. He says they are life changing.

I checked in and saw the top page of this site was me asking if anyone else hears noises in their head. And then the first thought that came to me was of my telling all of you how I have been next to Insane for the past 6+ months cuz of not getting the proper meds for my brain injury.and I had to laugh. I wondered if any of you thought of that first as I did?
(ah oh- she's hearing noises now). Cracked me up.
Thanks for all the hugs. You guys are the best! Hugs back to you all.
