Tinnitus is a very frustrating condition where you have a constant ringing, hissing or buzzing in your ears or head, day and night. At first this doesn’t sound so terrible but it is a relentless state that causes sleeplessness and exhaustion, tension, frustration, anxiety, agitation and depression. It can strain your relationships with loved ones and at work. It has even been known to drive some people to suicide. Our medical professionals tell us that there is no cure for tinnitus. The drug companies are making billions of dollars annually selling us drugs that don’t work and can have really nasty side effects. Other attempts to overcome tinnitus are: masking the noise (replacing it with another noise, “white noise”), calming the muscles or nerves of the outer ear, vitamins, oriental medicinal herbs and muscle relaxers. Then there is surgery. When all other options seem hopeless, surgery is a last hope. It should only be considered if there was a diagnoses of a tumor, osclerosis, or fistula. However, the success rate for surgery is only around 50% and there is always the chance of irreversible deafness. Of course, all surgeries come with risks.

Having suffered from tinnitus for about 12 to 15 years myself, I know these risks and frustrations personally, I’ve always hated taking drugs for anything and never liked the odds of curing tinnitus with pills. Not having considered surgery very seriously, I always felt this condition was just something to learn to live with. The only time I didn’t notice it was when asleep. But, upon awakening, the hissing in my head is immediately apparent. My experiences concerning tinnitus are not unlike many other sufferers.
