Mine is buzzing both sides tonight, slightly behind my head 

[discogirl]

do you know what triggers it off clkd.

some foods can x

Menopause.  I was never 1 for loud concerts/festivals so there's no apparent damage.  I've had allergic rhinitis since the 1970s which won't have helped.  It's quiet right. now and I don't, fortunately, hear it in the night.

That's good that you don't hear it at night; does it come and go, or are you just not aware of it at night

Hi.  Intermittent.  I think  . It's there in the day B4 I become aware of it, buzzing.  Both ears this afternoon. Slightly behind my head.

I find eating nuts can set mine off, however I'm on 10mg amit which really quietens mine xx

[CLKD]

What's in nuts  unless it's the chewing aspect ?  Nowt transfers to the ear other than sound, wind, cold, water ..........

[discogirl]

They have phenols in them which aggravate mine.

It could be the chewing as well x

Difficult to suck are nuts - risk of ingestion

Hello ladies.

I have just seen this thread after posting separately about my friend with Tinnitus.

I was wondering if I should suggest HRT to her as a possible treatment? She has had an MRI which revealed nerve damage in her ear. She has also been prescribed Amitriptyline and is using a while noise sound box at night.

I mentioned to her that many ladies have this condition and I promised her that I would pass on any advice or suggestions.

Wishing you all well ladies.

I've had tinnitus again today, behind my R ear  .  Like a high pitched whistle.

hi kathleen

i developed tinnitus in feb and i am convinced low estrogen was/is the culprit.

i am on 10mg amitrypline which most of the time i dont hear the tinnitus.

in time your friend will habituate to it but the amitrypline should help xx

[Kathleen]

Hello discogirl.

My friend is wary of taking the Amitriptyline at the moment so her GP has suggested that she begins with half a tablet. Hopefully that will help and as you say she will habituate to the Tinnitus.

Thanks again and take care.

Sensorineural hearing loss? I suddenly lost hearing on 1 side in late June and have tinnitus but my MRI didn't find anything and I was told that it had been caused by a virus.

It's buzzing - slightly behind my R skull
