Did your tinnitus improve with time?

[UnplainJane]

Had it 5 months now and the BTA websites underlying message is that it gets better with time - I understand this means you just adapt to it as the 'norm' at some point so it's not as bothersome. Obviously I hope it'll go but looking very unlikely! I've seen various HCPs and nothing wrong, hearing is good.

Just looking for others experience of it 'getting better with time'...... Don't know if it makes a difference but I've got various noises/pitches going on, not just one tone.

@awaynboilyurheid I used to use the silicone ones like these. Not the exact ones I bought as I can't remember the name of them but they look the same.

I have also used the foams one.
You can still hear with them in they just protect your ears more.
See what you find comfortable.
Good luck

No, I'm 93% deaf, tinnitus I normal to me. Not nice, annoying and deeply impacts me.
