Constant Ringing In Ears

A lady emailed me yesterday with the following:
“Several weeks ago after some long dental procedures, I developed a constant high pitch frequency ringing in my right ear. I had it checked out with my doctor, who gave very little advice, but did say, learn to deal!!!! I must say, it was a horrible month of trying to deal with it. The nights were dreaded for me. My T seems to be different all the time. It has no real cycle that I can match it to so far. Somedays the mornings are better and the nights are worse and then it reverses course on me and does the opposite!

For the first month I just seemed to have a drink to just unwind from my anxiety about it. One day, it pitched so badly, that I just drew a hot bath and had a very large glass of wine, within an hour the T completely seemed to stop (okay so I’m thinking of becoming an alcoholic, lol)..the next day it was very low and I immediately went home and did the same thing hoping that I would get the same reaction….NOT!!! It does not work that way!!! T has a weird life of it’s own in my case.

So far the best thing for me has been to ignore it the best I can…while laying in bed, instead of the horrible night anxiety, I listen to the waterfall noise machine, and I try to return to “think normally”, use my mind to think like I did BEFORE the T came into my life…does this make sense? Often before you fall asleep you have those wondering thoughts…those had stopped and instead I was thinking of that freaken noise instead. Now I am not giving the power over to the noise…ingnore it.

I appreicate the good days, but the bad days scare me, but they always seem to ease up, so I look forward to the spike leaving and the lesser noise returning. Do you feel the same way? ”

The only thing I could think of was to point her towards the same resources that I used. It sucks how many people are affected by this syndrome.
